Help! I need help on how to do these problems.

Chemistry
1 answer:
svetlana [45]2 years ago

Answer:

a. 3; b. 5; c. 10; d. 12

Explanation:

pH is defined as the negative log of the hydronium concentration:

pH = -log[H₃O⁺] (hydronium concentration)

For problems a. and b., HCl and HNO₃ are strong acids. This means that all of the HCl and HNO₃ would ionize, producing hydronium (H₃O⁺) and the conjugate bases Cl⁻ and NO₃⁻ respectively. Further, since all of the strong acid ionizes, 1 x 10⁻³ M H₃O⁺ would be produced for a., and 1.0 x 10⁻⁵ M H₃O⁺ for b. Plugging in your calculator -log[1 x 10⁻³] and -log[1.0 x 10⁻⁵] would equal 3 and 5, respectively.

For problems c. and d. we are given a strong base rather than acid. In this case, we can calculate the pOH:

pOH = -log[OH⁻] (hydroxide concentration)

Strong bases similarly ionize to completion, producing [OH⁻] in the process; 1 x 10⁻⁴ M OH⁻ will be produced for c., and 1.0 x 10⁻² M OH⁻ produced for d. Taking the negative log of the hydroxide concentrations would yield a pOH of 4 for c. and a pOH of 2 for d.

Finally, to find the pH of c. and d., we can take the pOH and subtract it from 14, giving us 10 for c. and 12 for d.

(Subtracting from 14 is assuming we are at 25°C; 14, the sum of pH and pOH, changes at different temperatures.)

What is the pH of a 75.0 mL solution that is 0.045 M in weak base and 0.053 M in the conjugate weak acid
noname [10]

Answer:

7.07

Explanation:

HA = weak acid = 0.053

A+ = conjugate base = 0.045

Ka = 7.2x10^-8

Ka = [H+][A-]/HA

7 2x10^-8 = [H+][0.045]/0.053

[H+] = 7.2x10^-8 x 0.053/0.045

= 8.48x10^-8

PH = -log[H+]

= -log[8.48x10^-8]

PH = -[login.48 + log10^-8]

PH = -0.928 - (-8)log10

= 7.07

Analysis/Conclusions:
Paha777 [63]
The correct answers are as follows:
1. MgSO4 + 2NH4OH = [NH4]2SO4 + Mg[OH]2.
This chemical equation implies that, one molecule of magnesium sulphate react with two molecules of ammonium hydroxide to give rise to one molecule of ammonium sulphate and  one molecule of magnesium hydroxide. 
2. The reaction between magnesium sulphate and ammonia is a DOUBLE REPLACEMENT REACTION.
A double replacement reaction is a type of reaction in which the two chemical substances which take part in the reaction switch their ions in such a way that two new products are formed. In the reaction of magnesium sulphate and ammonia, the magnesium sulphate gives its SO4 ion to ammonia and take the OH ion of the ammonia instead. 
3. The epsom salt and the ammonia reacted. This is made obvious by the chemical reaction which was generated by their combination. On the edge of the penny used, one can see that there is a colour change, this shows that a chemical reaction occur.
