Answer:

Explanation:

Given parameters;

pH  = 8.74

pH = 11.38

pH = 2.81

Unknown:

concentration of hydrogen ion and hydroxyl ion for each solution = ?

Solution

The pH of any solution is a convenient scale for measuring the hydrogen ion concentration of any solution.

It is graduated from 1 to 14

      pH = -log[H₃O⁺]

      pOH = -log[OH⁻]

 pH + pOH = 14

Now let us solve;

   pH = 8.74

             since  pH = -log[H₃O⁺]

                           8.74 =  -log[H₃O⁺]

                           [H₃O⁺] = 10⁻^{8.74}

                             [H₃O⁺]  = 1.82 x 10⁻⁹mol dm³

       pH + pOH = 14

                 pOH = 14 - 8.74

                  pOH = 5.26

                  pOH = -log[OH⁻]

                     5.26  = -log[OH⁻]

                     [OH⁻] = 10^{-5.26}

                      [OH⁻] = 5.5 x 10⁻⁶mol dm³

2.  pH = 11.38

             since  pH = -log[H₃O⁺]

                           11.38 =  -log[H₃O⁺]

                           [H₃O⁺] = 10⁻^{11.38}

                             [H₃O⁺]  = 4.17 x 10⁻¹² mol dm³

           pH + pOH = 14

                 pOH = 14 - 11.38

                  pOH = 2.62

                  pOH = -log[OH⁻]

                     2.62  = -log[OH⁻]

                     [OH⁻] = 10^{-2.62}

                      [OH⁻] =2.4 x 10⁻³mol dm³

3. pH = 2.81

             since  pH = -log[H₃O⁺]

                           2.81 =  -log[H₃O⁺]

                           [H₃O⁺] = 10⁻^{2.81}

                             [H₃O⁺]  = 1.55 x 10⁻³ mol dm³

           pH + pOH = 14

                 pOH = 14 - 2.81

                  pOH = 11.19

                  pOH = -log[OH⁻]

                     11.19  = -log[OH⁻]

                     [OH⁻] = 10^{-11.19}

                      [OH⁻] =6.46 x 10⁻¹²mol dm³

What is an ion? What are the two ways in which an ion can be made?
denpristay [2]
Answer: Ions are formed by the addition of electrons to, or the removal of electrons from, neutral atoms or molecules or other ions; by combination of ions with other particles; or by rupture of a covalent bond between two atoms in such a way that both of the electrons of the bond are left in association with one of the ...

0s to 15s: constant speed/zero acceleration
15s to 40s: constant gradient, therefore constant deceleration

The molecules of a substance must have what characteristics in order to be flexible
Goryan [66]
Answer:
            <span>The molecules of a substance which must have the <u>a</u></span><u>bility to move past one another</u> are said to be flexible.

Explanation:
                   Those substances are said to be flexible which can be bent without breaking. There are many substances which are hard in nature but still can be bent. The hardness of such materials is due to strong interactions between the molecules and the flexibility comes due to their amorphous backbone. Therefore, greater the crystalline level of macromolecules lesser is the flexibility and greater the amorphous character greater is the flexibility and vice versa. Also, the flexibility of polymers is increased by adding plastisizers in it. Plastisizers make the hard polymers flexible by breaking the crosslinkers and enabling the macromolecules to move past one another.
