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.
Chemistry

k0ka [10]3 years ago
4 0

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

The following charges on individual oil droplets were obtained during an experiment similar to Millikan's. Determine a charge fo
RSB [31]

Answer:

- 1.602 x 10⁻¹⁹coulombs

Explanation:

Charge on individual oil droplet would be multiple of charge on one electron . So we will find out the minimum common factor of given individual charges that is the LCM of all the charges given.

LCM of given charges like 3.204 , 4.806 ,8.01 and 14.42 . We have neglected the power of ten( 10⁻¹⁹)  because it is  already a common factor to all.

The LCM  is 1.602 . So charge on electron is 1.602 x 10⁻¹⁹.

Which substance is used to remove rust from metal
wel
<span>Chemically speaking, rust is a base and any acid will remove it. The choice of acid is going to be the thing to consider, since acid + base = salt and water. Phosphoric acid left a residue because the salt Iron phosphate is insoluble in water. Iron's soluble salts include the chloride, the sulfate and the nitrate. Industrially speaking, you need to "pickle" your iron. Pickling is a process in which dilute sulfuric acid is used to remove any surface corrosion prior to either painting or plating an iron surface. Sulfuric acid is ordinary battery acid and the salt Iron sulfate is not toxic. Sulfuric acid is one of the most common acids used (besides hydrochloric acid). The dilute kind is not terribly corrosive but concentrated sulfuric acid is a thick, syrupy liquid which can cause some nasty chemical burns if allowed to remain on the skin. It also heats up quite a lot when water is added, so this is an "Acid to water not water to acid" situation. The other choice is Hydrochloric acid, known as muriatic acid. The 20% concentrate is available in nearly any hardware store. It isn't as corrosive as concentrated sulfuric acid, but it has a burning, acrid stench, so never use the concentrate without adequate ventilation. It is ordinarily used to remove hard water deposits (boiler scale) but does a good on on rust as well. Concentrated Iron chloride isn't entirely inert but lots of rinsing will turn it back into harmless rust/sludge, especially if the rince water is naturally hard. Nitric acid will remove corrosion from anything, but it is extremely corrosive, smells worse then Hydrochloric acid and isn't easy to get, since it can be used to create some powerful explosives</span>

Boiling refers to which phase change?
Monica [59]
Boiling or also called evaporation is the conversion of liquid to gas through the application of heat. This phase change is an endothermic change and is the opposite of condensation from gas to liquid.
