Answer:

This is due to the physical properties of the sample, since it affects the volume dispensed.

Explanation:

For example, in the case of very dense samples, selected samples to adhere to the surface of the tip, dispensing more slowly. In contrast, ethanol samples are less viscous and more volatile and are dispensed more rapidly. Some of the ways to minimize these inconveniences are the use of ultra low retention pipette tips, since they have a hydrophobic plastic additive that prevents the liquid from adhering to the inside of the tip.

Another way is to use the reverse pipetting.

0.023 M solution of perchloric acid
kogti [31]
The original question is to find the pH and the pOH of 0.023 M of perchloric acid.

Answer:
pH = 1.638
pOH = 12.362

Explanation:
1- getting the pH:
pH can be calculated using the following rule:
pH = -log[H+]
Since the given solution is an acid, this means that [H+] is the same as the concentration of the solution.
This means that:
[H+] = 0.023
Substitute in the above equation to get the pH as follows:
pH = -log[0.023]
pH = 1.638

2- getting the pOH:
We know that:
pH + pOH = 14
We have calculated that pH = 1.638.
Substitute in the above equation to get the pOH as follows:
pOH + 1.638 = 14
pOH = 14 - 1.638
pOH = 12.362

Hope this helps :)
