The addition of NaOH to water would result in which of the following?

Chemistry
1 answer:
EleoNora [17]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

A decrease in [H3O+] and an increase in pH (option a)

Explanation:

Equilibrium of water is shown in this equation

2H₂O  ⇄  H₃O⁺  +  OH⁻

When you add NaOH, you are modifying [OH⁻]

NaOH  →   Na⁺  +  OH⁻

In equilibrium of water, the [OH⁻] increases

2H₂O   ⇄   ↓  H₃O⁺   +   OH⁻  ↑

As the [OH⁻] increases, by Le Chatellier, the equilibrium tends to decrease [H₃O⁺].

If the [OH⁻] is higher, pH  is also high so the solution of water and sodium hydroxide would be totally basic.

A chemist prepares a solution of mercury(I) chloride Hg2Cl2 by measuring out
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

1.26 × 10^-8 M

Explanation:

We are given;

Number of moles of mercury (i) chloride as 0.000126 μmol

Volume is 100 mL

We are required to calculate the concentration of the solution.

We need to know that;

Concentration is also known as molarity is given by;

Molarity = Number of moles ÷ Volume

Number of moles = 1.26 × 10^-10 Moles

Volume = 0.01 L

Therefore;

Concentration = 1.26 × 10^-10 Moles ÷ 0.01 L

                       = 1.26 × 10^-8 M

Thus, the molarity of the solution is 1.26 × 10^-8 M

a square boat made from iron has overall dimensions of 2.00 cm x 11.0 cm x 11.0 cm. it has a mass of 213 g. water has a density
Stolb23 [73]
Density of boat  =  \frac{MASS}{VOLUME}
                           
                          =  \frac{213 g}{(2 cm  *  11 cm  *  11cm)}
 
                          =   0.88 g / cm³

Since the density of water is greater than the density of the boat ( 1 > 0.88) then that means, the boat will NOT sink.
