Answer:

(a) pH=1

(b) pH=1.3

(c) pH=13

(d) pH=12.7

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, we define the pH in terms of the concentration of hydronium ions as:

pH=-log([H^+])

Which is directly computed for the strong hydrochloric acid (consider a complete dissociation which means the concentration of hydronium equals the concentration of acid) in (a) and (c) as shown below:

(a)

[H^+]=[HCl]=0.1M

pH=-log(0.1)=1

(b)

[H^+]=[HCl]=0.05M

pH=-log(0.05)=1.3

Nevertheless, for the strong sodium hydroxide, we don't directly compute the pH but the pOH since the concentration of base equals the concentration hydroxyl in the solution:

[OH^-]=[NaOH]

pOH=-log([OH^-])

pH=14-pOH

Thus, we have:

(b)

pOH=-log(0.1)=1\\pH=14-1=13

(d)

pOH=-log(0.05)=1.3\\pH=14-1.3=12.7

Best regards.

Select the statements that describe a method which can be used to make a buffer. (A) Partially neutralize a strong acid solution
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

B) Add appropriate quantities of weak acid and its conjugate base to water.

C) Partially neutralize a weak acid solution by addition of a strong base.

(D) Partially neutralize a weak base solution by addition of a strong acid.

Explanation:

A buffer solution is made by a weak acid and its conjugated base or a weak base and its conjugated acid.

If you add a weak acid to water, you can adjust the pH of the buffer solution by adding a strong base.

If ypu add a weak base to water, you can adjust the pH of the buffer solution by adding a strong acid.

A 2.950×10−2 M solution of glycerol (C3H8O3) in water is at 20.0∘C. The sample was created by dissolving a sample of C3H8O3 in w
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

The molality of the glycerol solution is 2.960×10^-2 mol/kg

Explanation:

Number of moles of glycerol = Molarity × volume of solution = 2.950×10^-2 M × 1 L = 2.950×10^-2 moles

Mass of water = density × volume = 0.9982 g/mL × 998.7 mL = 996.90 g = 996.90/1000 = 0.9969 kg

Molality = number of moles of glycerol/mass of water in kg = 2.950×10^-2/0.9969 = 2.960×10^-2 mol/kg

The molar concentration will be greater than 0.01 M KIO_{3}.


Since more of the compound was measured out than what was calculated, you can think of the solution as being 'stronger' than what it was calculated to be. Since a 'stronger' concentration results in a number that is higher, the molarity of this solution is going to be greater than 0.01 M.
