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)

scientific description about the pizza dough doubles its size when it is placed in a warm place . how does this happen
Marina CMI [18]
Answer is: because carbon(IV) oxide is released.
For example if baking soda is used for <span>the pizza dough, than on heat carbon(IV) oxide is product of chemical reaction:
2NaHCO</span>₃ → Na₂CO₃ + CO₂ + H₂O.
If we use yeast (<span>single-celled microorganism)</span>, also carbon(IV) oxide produced, because yeast turns sugars into carbon(IV) oxide.

Hm, this could be more than one option, but gaining electrons makes a negative charge, so

A metal (M) forms an oxide with the formula MO. If the oxide contains 7.17 % O by mass, what is the identity of the metal?
Nataly_w [17]

The metal is lead, Pb.

One unit of the oxide contains one atom of O (16.00 u).

∴ Mass of oxide = 16.00 u O × (100 u MO/7.17 u O) = 223.15 u MO

Mass of M = mass of MO – mass of O = 223.15 u -16.00 u = 207.2 u

The only element with an atomic mass of 207.2 u is lead (Pb) and the formula of the oxide is PbO.
