PH + pOH = 14 ⇒ pOH = 14 - pH
pOH = 14 - 2.5
pOH = 11.5
[H⁺] = 10^(-pH) = 10^(-2.5)
[H⁺] = 0.003 M
[OH⁻] = 10^(-pOH) = 10^(-11.5) = 3 × 10⁻¹² M
[OH⁻] = 3 × 10⁻¹² M
pH = 2.5 implies one significant digit
<u>Answer:</u> 6.57 L of solution can be made.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Molarity is defined as the amount of solute expressed in the number of moles present per liter of solution. The units of molarity are mol/L. The formula used to calculate molarity:
.....(1)
Given values:
Molarity of LiBr = 3.5 M
Moles of LiBr = 23 moles
Putting values in equation 1, we get:
Hence, 6.57 L of solution can be made.
<span>Molecular compounds, which are represented by molecules, are usually made of non-metals only (or of metalloids and non-metals). Ionic compounds, which are represented by formula units, are made of metals and non-metals.
More detail if you're interested: Molecules and formula units are the representative particles for molecular and ionic compounds, respectively. By that I mean, one unit of a molecular compound is a molecule...a bundle of atoms covalently bonded that exists separately from all the other molecules. One unit of an ionic compound is a formula unit. A formula unit is a representation of the compound's formula. For example, the formula unit of NaCl is one Na^+1 ion and one Cl^-1 ion. The formula unit of AlCl3 is one Al^+3 ion and three Cl^-1 ions. Ionic compounds don't have separate bundles of atoms like molecular compounds do, so the formula unit is just the smallest number of ions that it takes to represent the formula. </span>
