Deuterium is a relatively uncommon form of hydrogen, but can be created from water.

  • Heavy hydrogen commonly  known as deuterium
  • stable isotopes of hydrogen
  • gets its name from the Greek word deuterons means second.
  • has only one proton and one neutron
  • nucleus of the hydrogen's deuterium atom is known as a deuteron containing one proton and one neutron.
  • Deuterium forms chemical bonds that are stronger than regular hydrogen
  • gas deuterium is colorless
  • Deuterated water is used in Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy.
  • used in the determination of the isotopologue of various organic compounds.
  • used in Infrared Spectroscopy.

Tia has a sample of pure gold (Au). She weighed the sample and the result was 35.9 grams. Tia wants to determine the number of a
Gemiola [76]
First, find moles of gold given the mass of the sample:
(35.9g Au)/(197.0g/mol Au) = 0.182mol Au

Second, multiply moles of Au by Avogrado's number:
(0.182mol)(6.02 x10^23)= 1.10x10^23 atoms Au

What is the pH of a solution of 0.800 M KH2PO4, potassium dihydrogen phosphate?
Nookie1986 [14]
KH₂PO₄ hydrolyzes as;
H₂PO₄⁻ + H₂O ↔ H₃PO₄ + OH⁻
Let x amount of H₂PO₄⁻ has reacted with water then,
Kb₁ = [H₃PO₄][OH⁻] / [H₂PO₄⁻]
[H₂PO₄⁻] = 0.8-x M
Kb₁ = x² / (0.8 - x)
Given Ka₁ = 7.5 x 10⁻³
so Kb₁ = 1 x 10⁻¹⁴ / (7.5 x 10⁻³) = 1.33 x 10⁻¹²
From this information:
1.33 x 10⁻¹² = x² / 0.8
x = [OH⁻] = 1.03 x 10⁻⁶ M
pOH = - log (1.03 x 10⁻⁶) = 5.99
pH = 14 - pOH = 14 - 5.99 = 8.01
