<u>Answer: </u>Ionization energy increases as we move from left to right in a period.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Elements are arranged in 7 periods and 18 groups in a periodic table.

Ionization energy is defined as the energy required to remove an outermost electron from from an isolated gaseous atom.

$X(g)\rightarrow X^+(g)+e^-$

As, we move from left to right in a period, the electrons get added up into the same shell and is more attracted towards the nucleus.

This added electron requires more energy to be removed because it is attracted more towards the nucleus.

Hence, in a period, ionization energy increases.

A student is asked to standardize a solution of potassium hydroxide. He weighs out 1.08 g potassium hydrogen phthalate (KHC8H4O4

natka813 [3]

Answer:

A. 0.143 M

B. 0.0523 M

Explanation:

Let's consider the neutralization reaction between potassium hydroxide and potassium hydrogen phthalate (KHP).

KOH + KHC₈H₄O₄ → H₂O + K₂C₈H₄O₄

The molar mass of KHP is 204.22 g/mol. The moles corresponding to 1.08 g are:

1.08 g × (1 mol/204.22 g) = 5.28 × 10⁻³ mol

The molar ratio of KOH to KHC₈H₄O₄ is 1:1. The reacting moles of KOH are 5.28 × 10⁻³ moles.

5.28 × 10⁻³ moles of KOH occupy a volume of 36.8 mL. The molarity of the KOH solution is:

M = 5.28 × 10⁻³ mol / 0.0368 L = 0.143 M

Let's consider the neutralization of potassium hydroxide and perchloric acid.

KOH + HClO₄ → KClO₄ + H₂O

When the molar ratio of acid (A) to base (B) is 1:1, we can use the following expression.

$M_{A} \times V_{A} = M_{B} \times V_{B}\\M_{A} = \frac{M_{B} \times V_{B}}{V_{A}} \\M_{A} = \frac{0.143 M \times 10.1mL}{27.6mL}\\M_{A} =0.0523 M$

EXTRA POINTSSS 1. A solution at 25 degrees Celsius is 1.0 × 10–5 M H3O+. What is the concentration of OH– in this solution?

AlekseyPX

Answer:

Concentration of OH⁻:

1.0 × 10⁻⁹ M.

Explanation:

The following equilibrium goes on in aqueous solutions:

$\text{H}_2\text{O}\;(l)\rightleftharpoons \text{H}^{+}\;(aq) + \text{OH}^{-}\;(aq)$ .

The equilibrium constant for this reaction is called the self-ionization constant of water:

$K_w = [\text{H}^{+}]\cdot[\text{OH}^{-}]$ .

Note that water isn't part of this constant.

The value of $K_w$ at 25 °C is $10^{-14}$ . How to memorize this value?

The pH of pure water at 25 °C is 7.
$[\text{H}^{+}] = 10^{-\text{pH}} = 10^{-7}\;\text{mol}\cdot\text{dm}^{-3}$
However, $[\text{OH}^{-}] = [\text{H}^{+}]=10^{-7}\;\text{mol}\cdot\text{dm}^{-3}$ for pure water.
As a result, $K_w = [\text{H}^{+}] \cdot[\text{OH}^{-}] = (10^{-7})^{2} = 10^{-14}$ at 25 °C.
