A solution that has a high concentration of hydrogen ions has what type of pH?
2 answers:
<u>Given information:</u>
A solution with a high H+ ion concentration
<u>To determine:</u>
The nature of pH of such a solution
<u>Explanation:</u>
pH is a measure of the H+ ion concentration in a given solution. Lower the pH higher will be the H+ concentration and the solution is termed acidic. In contrast, if the pH is higher the H+ concentration will be lower and the solution is basic.
Mathematically,
pH = -log[H+]
[H+] =
pH = 2; [H+] = 10⁻²M
pH = 7; [H+] = 10⁻⁷M
pH = 13; [H+] = 10⁻¹³M
pH = 14; [H+] = 10⁻¹⁴M
Ans: (a)
Thus, the highest concentration of H+ ions is for a solution of pH = 2

Answer:
5.41 ×10⁻²²
Explanation:
We were told right from the question that both the Zinc ions and the Zinc oxide adopts a face-centered cubic arrangement.
Then, the number of ZnO molecule in one unit cell = 4
The standard molar mass of ZnO = 81.38g
Avogadro's constant = 6.023 × 10²³ mole
∴
The mass of one unit cell of zinc oxide can be calculated as:
=
= 5.40461564×10⁻²²
≅ 5.41 ×10⁻²²
∴ The mass of one unit cell of zinc oxide = 5.41 ×10⁻²²
