T<span>he charges themselves may not move fast, but the force upon them does. The electric field set up by the battery or generator propagates through the wires at the speed of light.

PH of 0,035M HCl? How to count if your calculator hasn't got -lg?
IrinaK [193]

<u>Given information:</u>

Concentration of HCl = 0.035 M

<u>To determine:</u>

pH of the solution

<u>Explanation:</u>

Hydrochloric acid, HCl is a strong acid. It will completely dissociate to give H+ and Cl- ions

HCl → H+ + Cl-

Hence the concentration of H+ = Cl- = 0.035M

Now, pH measures the strength of H+ ions in a given solution. It is expressed as:

pH = -log[H+]

pH (HCl) = -log(0.035) = 1.46

Ans: pH of 0.035M HCl is 1.46

Identify the solute with the highest van't Hoff factor. And how do you determine which one is highest?
german

Answer : The correct option is, (A) AlCl_3

Explanation :

Van't Hoff factor : It is defined as the ratio of the experimental value of the colligative property to the calculated value of the colligative property.

We can determine the van't Hoff factor by the association and dissociation of the compound.

(A) AlCl_3

It is an electrolyte that dissociates to give aluminum ion and chloride ion.

The dissociation of AlCl_3 will be,

AlCl_3\rightarrow Al^{3+}+3Cl^{-}

So, Van't Hoff factor = Number of solute particles = Al^{3+}+3Cl^{-} = 1 + 3 = 4

(B) KI

It is an electrolyte that dissociates to give potassium ion and iodide ion.

The dissociation of KI will be,

KI\rightarrow K^{+}+I^{-}

So, Van't Hoff factor = Number of solute particles = K^{+}+I^{-} = 1 + 1 = 2

(C) CaCl_2

It is an electrolyte that dissociates to give calcium ion and chloride ion.

The dissociation of CaCl_2 will be,

CaCl_2\rightarrow Ca^{2+}+2Cl^{-}

So, Van't Hoff factor = Number of solute particles = Ca^{2+}+2Cl^{-} = 1 + 2 = 3

(D) MgSO_4

It is an electrolyte that dissociates to give magnesium ion and sulfate ion.

The dissociation of MgSO_4 will be,

MgSO_4\rightarrow Mg^{2+}+SO_4^{2-}

So, Van't Hoff factor = Number of solute particles = Mg^{2+}+SO_4^{2-} = 1 + 1 = 2

(E) Non-electrolyte

The dissociation non-electrolyte is not possible. So, the Van't Hoff factor will always be, 1.

Hence, the highest van't Hoff factor of solute is, AlCl_3
