If you start with 0.30 m Mn₂ , at 12.5 pH, free Mn₂ concentration be equal to 4.6 x 10⁻¹¹ m
Initial molarity of Mn₂ = 0.30 M
Final molarity of Mn₂ = 4.6 x 10⁻¹¹
pH = ?
Ksp [Mn(OH)₂] = 4.6 x 10⁻¹⁴ (standard value)
Write the ionic equation
Mn(OH)₂ → Mn⁺² + 2OH⁻
[Mn⁺²] = 4.6 x 10⁻¹¹
We will calculate the concentration of OH⁻ by using Ksp expression
Ksp = [Mn⁺²][OH-]²
[Mn⁺²][OH⁻]² = 4.6 x 10⁻¹⁴
[OH⁻]² = 4.6 x 10⁻¹⁴ / 4.6 x 10⁻¹¹
[OH⁻]² = 10⁻³
[OH⁻] = (10⁻³)¹⁽²
[OH⁻] = 0.0316 M
Calculate the pOH
pOH = -log [OH⁻]
pOH = -log [0.0316]
pOH = 1.5
Now calculate pH
pH = 14 - pOH
pH = 14 - 1.5
pH = 12.5

#SPJ4
The fire that burned the chip is thermal energy.
An increase in the number of gas particles in the container increases the frequency of collisions with the walls and therefore the pressure of the gas. The last postulate of the kinetic molecular theory states that the average kinetic energy of a gas particle depends only on the temperature of the gas.
