What is the pOH of 0.50 molar H3BO3?

Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

A. 10.25

Explanation:

Pkb =4.77

So pka = 14 - pka = 9.23

$Ka =10^{-pka}$

$H_3 BO_3 (aq)+ H_2 O(l) H_2 BO_3^- (aq)+H_3 O^+ (aq)$

Initial 0.50M 0 0

Change -x +x +x

Equilibrium 0.50M-x +x +x

$Ka =\frac {((x)(x))}{(0.50M-x)}$

$5.88\times10^{-10}= \frac {x^2}{(0.50M-x)}$

(-x is neglected) so we get

$5.88\times10^{-10}\times0.50=x^2\\\\x^2=2.94\times10^{-10}$

$x=\sqrt{x^2}=1.72\times10^{-5} M=H^3 O^{+}$

$pH=-log[H^3 O^+]\\\\pH=-log[1.72\times10^{-5}]\\\\pH=4.76$

pOH = 14 - pH

= 14 - 4.76

pOH = 9.24 is the answer

Option A - 10.25 is the answer which is close to 9.24

What can u infer about Mimas and Tethys moons

liberstina [14]

Scientists with NASA's Cassini mission have spotted "Pac-Man" images on moons of Saturn, Mimas & Tethys. The image in Mimas was seen in the year 2010, while in Tethys in the year 2011. The pattern appears in thermal data taken by Cassini's infrared spectrometer, with the warmer areas making up the Pac-Man shape.

What is the difference between a solution and a heterogeneous mixture? What are some examples?

liubo4ka [24]

A solution is a homogenous mixture meaning it has a uniform appearance throughout. (example: salt water)

heterogeneous mixture is visibly composed of different things. (example: chicken noodle soup)
