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: Theoretical Yield = 0.2952 g
Percentage Yield = 75.3%
Explanation:
Calculation of limiting reactant:
n-trans-cinnamic acid moles = (142mg/1000) / 148.16 = 9.584*10⁻⁴ mol
pyridium tribromide moles = (412mg/1000) / 319.82= 1.288*10⁻³ mol
- n-trans-cinnamic acid is the limiting reactant
The molar ratio according to the equation mentioned is equals to 1:1
The brominated product moles is also = 9.584*10⁻⁴ mol
Theoretical yield = (9.584*10⁻⁴ mol) * (Mr of brominated product)
= (9.584*10⁻⁴ mol) * (307.97) = 0.2952 g
Percentage Yield is : Actual Yield / Theoretical Yield = 0.2223/0.2952
= 75.3%
