Calculate the concentration of H3O+ in a solution that contains 5.5 × 10-5 M OH- at 25°C. Identify the solution as acidic, basic

, or neutral.

Explanation:

To calculate [H3O+] in the solution we must first find the pH from the [ OH-]

That's

pH + pOH = 14

pH = 14 - pOH

To calculate the pOH we use the formula

pOH = - log [OH-]

And [OH-] = 5.5 × 10^-5 M

So we have

pOH = - log 5.5 × 10^ - 5

pOH = 4.26

Since we've found the pOH we can now find the pH

That's

pH = 14 - 4.26

pH = 9.74

Now we can find the concentration of H3O+ in the solution using the formula

pH = - log H3O+

9.74 = - log H3O+

Find the antilog of both sides

<h2> H3O+ = 1.8 × 10^ - 10 M</h2>

The solution is basic since it's pH lies in the basic region.

Hope this helps you

You just measured a metal cylinder and obtained the following information: mass - 3.543 g diameter -0.53 cm height = 4.40 cm. 26
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

V cylinder = \pi r^2 h = \pi(0.53 cm/2)^24.4cm= 0.97 cm^3

note that r=diameter/2

density = m/V= 3.543/0.97= 3.65 g/cm^3

Question 2: you have two systems: 1) solid gold and water 2) solid sodium and waterWhich one can spontaneously release energy an
Valentin [98]

Hey there!

Solid Sodium and water will react spontaneously and release energy.  This is based on the reactivity series. Sodium is a highly reactive metal and hence, it is placed at the top of the reactivity series. This is because it loses its outermost electron very readily. When it comes in contact with water, it reacts with it violently to form sodium hydroxide and hydrogen gas. This reaction is exothermic and hence, accompanied with a release of energy.  Gold lies at the bottom of the reactivity series as it is very stable and does not give away its outermost electrons easily. Therefore, when it comes in contact with water, there is no reaction and no release of energy.
