Answer: Option C) 9.5

Explanation:

Given that,

pOH of solution = ?

pH of solution = 4.5 (it is an acidic solution because any pH values less than 7.0 is said to be acidic)

Recall that pH is the negative logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration in the solution while pOH is the negative logarithm of hydroxide ion concentration in the solution.

Hence, pH + pOH = 14

4.5 + pOH = 14

pOH = 14 - 4.5

pOH = 9.5

Thus, the pOH of the same solution is 9.5

The osmotic pressure of a solution formed by dissolving 35.0 mg of aspirin (c9h8o4) in 0.250 l of water at 25°c is __________ at

Lunna [17]

Mass of aspirin = 0.025 g
Molar mass of C9H8O4 is 180.1583 g/mol
moles of aspirin = .025g / 180.1583 g/mol = 0.000138767 moles
volume solution = .250 L
molarity of the solution = 0.000138767 moles / .250L =5.551 x 10 ^-04 Moles / liter
for aspirin i = Vant'Hoff factor = 1 particle in solution
T = 25 + 273 =298 K
osmotic pressure = M x R x T x i =
5.551 x 10 ^-04 mole L -1 x 0.08206 L atm K−1 mol−1 x 298 K x 1 = 0.0136 atmospheres

The NaCl crystal structure consists of alternating Na⁺ and Cl⁻ ions lying next to each other in three dimensions. If the Na⁺ rad

Yuliya22 [10]

Answer : The radii of the two ions Cl⁻ ion and Na⁺ ion is, 181 and 102 pm respectively.

Explanation :

As we are given that the Na⁺ radius is 56.4% of the Cl⁻ radius.

Let us assume that the radius of Cl⁻ be, (x) pm

So, the radius of Na⁺ = $x\times \frac{56.4}{100}=(0.564x)pm$
