Calculate the pH of the following simple solutions:

Chemistry
1 answer:
IceJOKER [234]3 years ago
5 0

Answer :

(1) pH = 1.27

(2) pH = 13.35

(3) The given solution is not a buffer.

Explanation :

<u>(1) 53.1 mM HCl</u>

Concentration of HCl = 53.1mM=53.1\times 10^{-3}M

As HCl is a strong acid. So, it dissociates completely to give hydrogen ion and chloride ion.

So, Concentration of hydrogen ion= 53.1\times 10^{-3}M

pH : It is defined as the negative logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration.

pH=-\log [H^+]

pH=-\log (53.1\times 10^{-3})

pH=1.27

<u>(2) 0.223 M KOH</u>

Concentration of KOH = 0.223 M

As KOH is a strong base. So, it dissociates completely to give hydroxide ion and potassium ion.

So, Concentration of hydroxide ion= 0.223 M

Now we have to calculate the pOH.

pOH=-\log [OH^-]

pOH=-\log (0.223)

pOH=0.65

Now we have to calculate the pH.

pH+pOH=14\\\\pH=14-pOH\\\\pH=14-0.65=13.35

<u>(3) 53.1 mM HCl + 0.223 M KOH</u>

Buffer : It is defined as a solution that maintain the pH of the solution by adding the small amount of acid or a base.

It is not a buffer because HCl is a strong acid and KOH is a strong base. Both dissociates completely.

As we know that the pH of strong acid and strong base solution is always 7.

So, the given solution is not a buffer.

A certain amount of hydrogen peroxide was dissolved in 100. mL of water and then titrated with 1.68 M KMnO4. What mass of H2O2 w
Stels [109]

Answer:

see explanation below

Explanation:

First to all, this is a redox reaction, and the reaction taking place is the following:

2KMnO4 + 3H2SO4 + 5H2O2 -----> 2MnSO4 + K2SO4 + 8H2O + 5O2

According to this reaction, we can see that the mole ratio between the peroxide and the permangante is 5:2. Therefore, if the titration required 21.3 mL to reach the equivalence point, then, the moles would be:

MhVh = MpVp

h would be the hydrogen peroxide, and p the permanganate.

But like it was stated before, the mole ratio is 5:2 so:

5MhVh = 2MpVp

Replacing moles:

5nh = 2MpVp

Now, we just have to replace the given data:

nh = 2MpVp/5

nh = 2 * 1.68 * 0.0213 / 5

nh = 0.0143 moles

Now to get the mass, we just need the molecular mass of the peroxide:

MM = 2*1 + 2*16 = 34 g/mol

Finally the mass:

m = 0.0143 * 34

m = 0.4862 g
