Neutralization deals with the buffering or neutralizing of acids and bases. You change the pH of either an acid or a base by adding H+ ions to a base solution or adding OH- ions by adding a base(alkali) to an acid solution. Ideally you are neutralizing either one to a neutral pH condition which is "7" on the pH scale.

Saturation on the other hand deals with how much solute (solid) you can disolve in a solvent. As you add solute to solution it can only disolve a certain amount before the solvent becomes "satutated" and no more solute will desolve into a homogenous blend with the solvent. You then see precepitants start coming out of solution and falling to the bottom of the container the solution is contained in.

To find average atomic mass, multiply each isotope's atomic mass with its relative abundance and add it all up.

15.012*0.1423 + 16.988*0.3348 + 19.177*0.5229 = 17.851 (5 s.f.)

A chemist dissolves 484 .mg of pure perchloric acid in enough water to make up 240.mL of solution. Calculate the pH of the solut
sdas [7]

Answer:

1.70

Explanation:

The molar mass of perchloric acid is 100.46 g/mol. The moles corresponding to 484 mg (0.484 g) are:

0.484 g × (1 mol/100.46 g) = 4.82 × 10⁻³ mol

4.82 × 10⁻³ moles are dissolved in 240 mL (0.240 L) of solution. The molar concentration of perchloric acid is:

4.82 × 10⁻³ mol/0.240 L = 0.0201 M

Perchloric acid is a strong monoprotic acid, that is, it dissociates completely, so [H⁺] = 0.0201 M.

The pH is:

pH = -log [H⁺] = -log 0.0201 = 1.70

How many moles of N20 gas would have a volume of 3.8 L at 460 mmHg and 77°C?
Citrus2011 [14]

<u>We are given:</u>

Volume of gas = 3.8 L

Pressure = 460 mmHg

Temperature = 77°c = (77+273)K = 350K

<u>Converting the pressure to atm:</u>

Pressure(in atm)  = Pressure(in mmHg) / 760

Pressure = 460/760 = 0.6 atm

<u>Finding the number of moles:</u>

using the ideal gas equation:

PV = nRT                                         [where R is the universal gas constant]

<em>replacing the given values in this equation</em>

(0.6)(3.8) = n(0.082)(350)

n = (0.6*3.8)/(0.082*350)

n = 0.08 moles
