Asolution has a pH of 8. Which best describes the solution?

Chemistry
2 answers:
Ugo [173]3 years ago
7 0

A pH of 8 describes a weak base. Note that a pH of 7 is considered neutral. Anything lower than 7 is acidic, and anything higher than 7 is basic. For bases, the higher the pH, the more basic a substance is. Since the solution's pH of 8 is a lot closer to 7 than 14 (maximum pH), it is safe to assume that it is a weak base.

How do atoms make molecules?
bazaltina [42]

Explanation:

Atoms can join together - they form bonds together - to make MOLECULES. ... For example, a hydrogen atom forms one bond, an oxygen atom forms two, and carbon forms four bonds. Look at that molecule of water again - each hydrogen has one bond, and the oxygen in the middle has two bonds. Molecules can be much bigger.

What is the correct balanced equation for the reaction of sodium with water?
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

 A.    2Na       +    2H₂O   →    2NaOH   +  H₂  

Explanation:

When sodium is reacted with water, a single replacement reaction occurs. The product of the reaction is typically sodium hydroxide and hydrogen gas.

Reactants:

        Sodium +  water

Product:

        Sodium hydroxide + hydrogen gas

So;

         2Na       +    2H₂O   →    2NaOH   +  H₂

Could someone explain what oxidation numbers are and what these questions are asking of me?
Oxana [17]

The oxidation state, sometimes referred to as oxidation number, describes the degree of oxidation of an atom in a chemical compound.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The oxidation number of an atom is the charge that atom would have if the compound was composed of ions. 1. The oxidation number of an atom is zero in a neutral substance that contains atoms of only one element. The oxidation number of simple ions is equal to the charge on the ion.

The oxidation number of a mono atomic ion equals the charge of the ion. The oxidation number of H is +1, but it is -1 in when combined with less electro negative elements. The oxidation number of O in compounds is usually -2, but it is -1 in peroxides. The oxidation number of a Group 1 element in a compound is +1.
