Answer : The correct option is (d) a solution of 0.10 M NaOH

Explanation :

<u>(a) a solution of pH 3.0</u>

First we have to calculate the pOH.

pH+pOH=14\\\\pOH=14-pH\\\\pOH=14-3.0=11

Now we have to calculate the OH^- concentration.

pOH=-\log [OH^-]

11=-\log [OH^-]

[OH^-]=1.0\times 10^{-11}M

Thus, the OH^- concentration is, 1.0\times 10^{-11}M

<u>(b) a solution of 0.10 M NH_3</u>

As we know that 1 mole of NH_3 is a weak base. So, in a solution it will not dissociates completely.

So, the OH^- concentration will be less than 0.10 M

<u>(c) a solution with a pOH of 12.</u>

We have to calculate the OH^- concentration.

pOH=-\log [OH^-]

12=-\log [OH^-]

[OH^-]=1.0\times 10^{-12}M

Thus, the OH^- concentration is, 1.0\times 10^{-12}M

<u>(d) a solution of 0.10 M NaOH</u>

As we know that NaOH is a strong base. So, it dissociates to give Na^+ ion and OH^- ion.

So, 0.10 M of NaOH in a solution dissociates to give 0.10 M of Na^+ ion and 0.10 M of OH^- ion.

Thus, the OH^- concentration is, 0.10 M

<u>(e) a 1\times 10^{-4}M solution of HNO_2</u>

As we know that 1 mole of HNO_2 in a solution dissociates to give 1 mole of H^+ ion and 1 mole of NO_2^- ion.

So, 1\times 10^{-4}M of HNO_2 in a solution dissociates to give 1\times 10^{-4}M of H^+ ion and 1\times 10^{-4}M of NO_2^- ion.

The concentration of H^+ ion is 1\times 10^{-4}M

First we have to calculate the pH.

pH=-\log [H^+]

pH=-\log (1.0\times 10^{-4})

pH=4

Now we have to calculate the pOH.

pH+pOH=14\\\\pOH=14-pH\\\\pOH=14-4=10

Now we have to calculate the OH^- concentration.

pOH=-\log [OH^-]

10=-\log [OH^-]

[OH^-]=1.0\times 10^{-10}M

Thus, the OH^- concentration is, 1.0\times 10^{-10}M

From this we conclude that, a solution of 0.10 M NaOH possess the greatest concentration of hydroxide ions.

Hence, the correct option is (d)

What is the average kinetic energy of 1 mole of a gas at -32 degrees Celsius? (R = 8.314 J/K-mol)
romanna [79]

Answer:

3.01 x 103 J

Explanation:

To determine the average kinetic energy of a gas, it is necessary to use the equation, KE = 3/2 RT. The value of R, multiplied by the temperature, and multiplied by 3/2, can provide the average kinetic energy of the gas.
