A solution has [OH-]=3.5*10^-6. Based on that, what must be true about this solution?
Volgvan

Answer:

Option B. It is a basic solution.

Explanation:

To know which option is correct, let us calculate the pH of the solution.

First, we shall determine the pOH of the solution. This is illustrated below:

Concentration of Hydroxide ion, [OH¯] = 3.5×10¯⁶

pOH =.?

pOH = –Log [OH¯]

pOH = –Log 3.5×10¯⁶

pOH = 5.5

Finally, we shall determine the pH. This can be obtained as follow:

pOH = 5.5

pH =?

pH + pOH = 14

pH + 5.5 = 14

Collect like terms

pH = 14 – 5.5

pH = 8.5

The pH scale reads as follow:

0 to 6 => Acidic

7 => Neutral

8 to 14 => Basic

Comparing the pH of the solution (i.e 8.5) with the pH scale, we can conclude that the solution is basic because the pH of solution lies between 8 and 14.

How many grams of hydrogen are needed to produce 1.80g of water according to this equation?
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

0.2g of hydrogen is needed to produce 1.80g of water

Explanation:

$H_{2}+O_{2} \to 2H_{2}O$

No. of moles of water$= \frac{Weight}{Molecular \, weight}$ \\

From given values,

Weight of water $=1.80g$

Molecular weight of water $=18g$

$\therefore$ No. of moles of water$=\frac{1.80}{18}=0.1 $

From equation, it is clear that 2 moles of water can be formed by 2 moles of $H_{2}$

Hence, 0.1 mole of water can be formed from 0.1 mole of $H_{2}$

Now,

No. of moles of $H_{2} = \frac{Weight}{Molecular \, weight}$

$\Rightarrow weight \,of\, H_{2}=No.\,of\,moles \times Molecular\,weight$\\ $=0.1 \times 2=0.2g$

A sample of iron having a mass of 93.3g is heated to 65.58OC is placed in 75.0g ofwater raising the temperature from 16.95 OC to
11111nata11111 [884]
The heat gained or lost by a substance undergoing a change in temperature is:
Q = mCpΔT
The heat lost by the iron is equal to that gained by water. The Cp for water is 4.186 Joules/gram

75 x 4.186 x (22.24 - 16.95) = -93.3 x Cp x (22.24 - 65.58)
Cp = 0.411 J/g

The heat capacity of iron is 0.45 J/g

%Error = [(0.45 - 0.41) / 0.41] x 100
%Error = 9.76%
