Although coal and diamonds are both composed of carbons alone, they differ in their properties because of the bonds present in each substance. Diamonds are composed of covalent bonds which are strong and is crystalline in nature which makes it sturdier. Coal is amorphous which allows the slipping of irregular layers to each other making coal brittle

What is the pH of a solution made by mixing 200 mL of 0.025M HCl and 150 mL of 0.050 M HCl?
seraphim [82]

Answer:

The answer to your question is pH = 1.45  

Explanation:

Data

pH = ?

Volume 1 = 200 ml

[HCl] 1 = 0.025 M

Volume 2 = 150 ml

[HCl] 2 = 0.050 M

Process

1.- Calculate the number of moles of each solution

Solution 1

                Molarity = moles / volume

-Solve for moles

                moles = 0.025 x 0.2

result

               moles = 0.005

Solution 2

               moles = 0.050 x 0.15

-result

                moles = 0.0075

2.- Sum up the number of moles

Total moles = 0.005 + 0.0075

                   = 0.0125

3.- Sum up the volume

total volume = 200 + 150

                     350 ml or 0.35 l

4.- Calculate the final concentration

Molarity = 0.0125 / 0.35

              = 0.0357

5.- Calculate the pH

pH = -log [H⁺]

-Substitution

pH = -log[0.0357]

-Result

pH = 1.45
