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.

Dovator [93]
After finding the oxidation states of atoms, you identify the half reactions (option c).

The half reactions are given by the change of the oxidation states of the atoms.

For example if Cu is in the left side with oxidation state 0 and in the other side with oxidation state 2+, then there you have a half reaction (oxidation reaction). And if you have O with oxidation state 0 in the left side  and with oxidation state 2- in the right side, there you have other half reaction (reducing reaction).

Gallium has two naturally occurring isotopes: 69ga with a mass of 68.9256 amu and a natural abundance of 60.11% and 71ga. use th
Nataly [62]

There are two naturally occurring isotopes of gallium:  mass of Ga-69 isotope is 68.9256 amu and its percentage abundance is 60.11%, let the mass of other isotope that is Ga-71 be X, the percentage abundance can be calculated as:

%Ga-71=100-60.11=39.89%

Atomic mass of an element is calculated by taking sum of atomic masses of its isotopes multiplied by their percentage abundance.

Thus, in this case:

Atomic mass= m(Ga-69)×%(Ga-69)+X×%(Ga-71)

From the periodic table, atomic mass of Ga is 69.723 amu.

Putting the values,

69.723 amu=(68.9256 amu)(\frac{60.11}{100})+X(\frac{39.89}{100})

Thus,

69.723 amu=41.4312 amu+X(\frac{39.89}{100})

Rearranging,

X=\frac{69.723 amu-41.4312 amu}{0.3989}=70.9246 amu

Therefore, mass of Ga-71 isotope is 70.9246 amu.
