What is the hydroxide concentration of a solution with a pH of 12.80?

1 answer:

8 0

Step1 : To convert from pH to ion concentrations,first apply equation 17-1 to calculate [H3O+]. Then make use of water equilibrium to calculate [OH-]
Step 2 : We must rearrange equation pH = -log [H+] , in order to solve for concentration
Step 3 : log [H+] = -pH and [H+] = 10 -pH
Step 4 ; Now substitute and evaluate:
[H+] = 10-3.05 = 8.9 x 10-4 M
Step 5: To determine the hydroxide ion concentration,we need to rearrange the water equilibrium expression:
Kw = 1.0 x 10 -14 = [H3O+]eq [OH-] and [OH-]eq = 1.0 x 10- 14 / [H3O+]
now susbtitute and evaluate:
= 1.0 x 10- 14 / 8.9 x 10-4 = 1.1 x 10-11 M

Sample protblem 2 : What is the OH- ion concetraion of a solution of NaOH with pH 13.40 ?
Solution:
Step 1 : First find pOH from the given pH:
pH + pOH = 14
pOH = 14 - 13.40 = 0.60
Step 2 : As you have now the value of pOH you can find the OH- ion concentration using formula
pOH = -log [OH-]
[OH- ] = 10 - pOH = 10 - 0.60 = 0.25 M

LenaWriter [7]

Answer is: this is an example of an Arrhenius acid.

An Arrhenius acid is a substance that dissociates in water to form hydrogen ions or protons (H⁺).

For example hydrochloric acid: HCl(aq) → H⁺(aq) + Cl⁻(aq).

An Arrhenius base is a substance that dissociates in water to form hydroxide ions (OH⁻).
In this example lithium hydroxide is an Arrhenius base:

LiOH(aq) → Li⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq).

How to do dimensional analysis chemistry with moles?

almond37 [142]

Moles are a unit of measure used to convert between different quantities like grams, molarity or volume.

Dimensional analysis is doing math with units. They multiply, divide and cancel out just like numbers. This is why like for area of a rectangle: 2m × 3m = 6m² is in units of distance squared and volume is in units of distance cubed.

Example Chemistry question.
Now, say you have 10 grams of NaCl salt that is added to 1 L water and you want to know the concentration. You would look at the periodic table and find the atomic mass of both Sodium (Na = 23 g/mol) and Chloride (Cl = 35.5 g/mol).

Once you have the atomic mass of both elements add them together to get the atomic mass of the compound NaCl = 23 g/mol + 35.5 g/mol = 58.5 g/mol

set up the multiplication so that grams cancels out during multiplication. Like so ....
$10 g * \frac{1mol}{58.5g} = 0.17 mole..NaCl$

Grams cancel leaving moles NaCl. The concentration of the solution, molarity = moles/liter
Divide 0.17 moles NaCl by 1 Liters = 0.17 Molarity NaCl

Hope this helps, let me know if you have any questions.

Answer:

Different liquid

Explanation:

The independent variable in the investigation is the different liquid given to the plants.

The independent variable in an experimental investigation is the variable that is supplied by the researcher which directly affects the main variable being measured during the investigation. In other words, the independent variable is a variable that directly affects the dependent variable.

In this case, the dependent variable would be growth determining factors in plants such as height, biomass, number of leaves, etc. while the independent variable would be the different types of liquid given to the plants.
