3 KOH + H3PO3 = K3PO4 + 3 H2O
moles KOH = 26.5 g/56.1 g/mol=0.472
moles K3PO4 = 0.472/3 =0.157
The purpose of using distilled water in the cuvette of the spectrophotometer is to calibrate the instrument. It is generally considered that distilled water shows zero absorbance and 100 % transmittance. So, to zero out the absorbance of compounds other than the analyte being determined, distilled water is used as a blank.
If the unknown being determined is prepared using ethanol as the base solution, the blank used must be ethanol. This is because absorbance if any from the solvent, ethanol must be zeroed out as when the measurement of the actual unknown is being made, the absorbance of the solvent does not interfere.
It is a completely true statement that a <span>base increases the OH- ion concentration of water. The correct option among the two options that are given in the question is the first option. I hope that this is the answer that you were looking for and the answer has actually come to your desired help.</span>
Answer:
6.76 moles.
Explanation:
2CO(g)+O2 (g) =2CO2(g)
When 2 CO mols were reacted with excess O2 then 2 mols of CO2 is created.
Therefore if 6.76 moles reacted, same number of CO2 will be created.
Answer:
No
Explanation:
The pH scale is a scale graduated from 0-14 which shows the degree of acidity of alkalinity of a substance. The pH scale is graduated in such a way that 0-6.9 indicates acidity, 7.0 indicate a neutral substance, while a pH of 8-14 indicates alkalinity respectively.
There are three main definitions of acids/bases
- Arrhenius definition
-Brownstead-Lowry definition
-Lewis definition
Arrhenius explains acids as any substance that produces hydrogen ions as its only positive ion in solution while a base produces hydroxide ions as its only negative ion in solution. The pH scale is based on corresponding values of pH derived from aqueous solutions of these substances.
However, not all acids/bases produces hydrogen or hydroxide ions in solution. Brownstead-Lowry definition of acids and Lewis definition of acids could be extended to nonaqueous media where the pH can not be measured as there are no hydrogen or hydroxide ions present in the solution.
This implies that pH measurement may not apply to acids/bases in the all the categories of acids/bases hence it can not be utilized for all acids and bases.
Arrhenius - sodium carbonate
Brownstead-Lowry - concentrated HF
Lewis acid - AlCl3
