Answer:
1.60.
Explanation:
- The no. of millimoles of HCl = MV = (0.15 M)(20.0 mL) = 3.0 mmol.
- The no. of millimoles of KOH = MV = (0.10 M)(20.0 mL) = 2.0 mmol.
<em>Since the no. of millimoles of HCl is larger than that of KOH. The solution is acidic.</em>
<em></em>
∴ M of remaining HCl [H⁺] remaining = (NV)HCl - (NV)KOH/V total = (3.0 mmol) - (2.0 mmol) / (40.0 mL) = 0.025 M.
∵ pH = - log[H⁺]
<em>∴ pH = - log[H⁺] </em>= - log(0.025) = <em>1.602 ≅ 1.60.</em>
Answer: Complete ionic equations dissociate all aqueous solutions into ions. Net ionic equations show the change that occurs in chemical reactions and do not show spectator ions that are the same in reactants and products. (b) If no spectator ions were present then complete and net ionic equations would be identical.
