Do all titrations of a strong base with a strong acid have the same ph at the equivalence point?
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

  • <u>Yes,</u> <em>all titrations of a strong base with a strong acid have the same pH at the equivalence point.</em>

       This <u>pH is 7.</u>

Explanation:

<em>Strong acids</em> and <em>strong bases</em> ionize completely in aqueous solutions. The ionization of strong acids produce hydronium ions, H₃O⁺, and the ionization of strong bases produce hydroxide ions, OH⁻.

Since the ionization of strong acids and bases progress until completion, there is not reverse reaction.

The definition of pH is pH = - log [H₃O⁺]. Acids have low pH (below 7, and greater than 0) and bases have high pH (above 7 and less than 14). Neutral solutions have pH = 7.

Acid-base titrations are a method to determine the concentration of an acid from the known concentration of a base, or the concentraion of a base from the known concentration of an acid.

The<em> equivalence point</em> of the titration is the point at which the the number of moles of hydronium ions and hydroxide ions are equal.

Then, at that point, the hydronium and hydroxide ions will be in the stoichiometric proportion to form a neutral solution, i.e. the pH of the solution wiill be 7.

Suppose that a wave has a period of 0.03 seconds what is its frequency be sure to show the steps for your work
Reil [10]

Answer:

f = 33.34 Hz

Explanation:

A wave has a period of 0.03 seconds. It is required to find the frequency of a wave. The relation between time period and frequency is inverse. The time period of a wave is given by :

T = 1/f, f = frequency of wave

f=\dfrac{1}{T}\\\\f=\dfrac{1}{0.03}\\\\f=33.34\ Hz

So, the frequency of the wave is 33.34 Hz.
