Answer:
[H₃O⁺] = 1.4 × 10⁻⁹ M.
Explanation:
NH₄Cl is a salt that dissolves well in water. The 2.5 M NH₄Cl will give an initial NH₄⁺ concentration of 2.5 M.
NH₃ is a weak base. It combines with water to produce NH₄⁺ and OH⁻. The opposite process can also take place. NH₄⁺ combines with OH⁻ to produce NH₃ and H₂O. The final H₃O⁺ concentration can be found from the OH⁻ concentration. What will be the final OH⁻ concentration?
Let the increase in OH⁻ concentration be x. The initial OH⁻ concentration at room temperature is 10⁻⁷ M.
Construct a RICE table for the equilibrium between NH₃ and NH₄⁺:
.
The value for ammonia is small. The value of x will be so small that at equilibrium,

Sodium carbonate is used to neutralised sulfuric acid, H₂SO₄. Sodium carbonate is the salt of stron base (NaOH) and weak acid (H₂CO₃). The balanced chemical reaction for neutralization is as follows:
Na₂CO₃ + H₂SO₄→ Na₂SO₄ + H₂CO₃
From balanced chemical equation, it is clear that one mole of Na₂CO₃ is required to neutralize one mole of H₂SO₄. Molar mass of Na₂CO₃= 106 g/mol=0.106 kg/mol and molar mass of H₂SO₄= 98 g/mol=0.098 kg/mol.
To neutralize 0.098 kg of H₂SO₄ amount of Na₂CO₃ required is 0.106 kg, so, to neutralize 5.04×10³ kg of H₂SO₄, Na₂CO₃ required is= kg= 5.451 X 10³ kg.
