Solution with a pH of 3 has 10⁻³ moles of H⁺, solution with a pH of 4 has 10⁻⁴ moles of H⁺ and solution with a pH of 5 has 10⁻⁵ moles of H⁺ (in dm³) so the solution with a pH of 3 has 10 times more H⁺ ions than the solution with a pH of 4 and 100 times more H⁺ ions than the solution with a pH of 5.
Answer: The concentration of 
ions in vinegar is 0.001 M.
Explanation:
Given: pH = 3.0
pH is the negative logarithm of concentration of hydrogen ion.
The expression for pH is as follows.
![pH = - log [H^{+}]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=pH%20%3D%20-%20log%20%5BH%5E%7B%2B%7D%5D)
Substitute the value into above expression as follows.
![pH = - log [H^{+}]\\3.0 = - log [H^{+}]\\conc. of H^{+} = antilog (- 3.0)\\= 0.001 M](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=pH%20%3D%20-%20log%20%5BH%5E%7B%2B%7D%5D%5C%5C3.0%20%3D%20-%20log%20%5BH%5E%7B%2B%7D%5D%5C%5Cconc.%20of%20H%5E%7B%2B%7D%20%3D%20antilog%20%28-%203.0%29%5C%5C%3D%200.001%20M)
Thus, we can conclude that the concentration of ions in vinegar is 0.001 M.
Answer:
Explanation:
In a chemical formula, the oxidation state of transition metals can be determined by establishing the relationships between the electrons gained and that which is lost by an atom.
We know that for compounds to be formed, atoms would either lose, gain or share electrons between one another.
The oxidation state is usually expressed using the oxidation number and it is a formal charge assigned to an atom which is present in a molecule or ion.
To ascertain the oxidation state, we have to comply with some rules:
- The algebraic sum of all oxidation numbers of an atom in a neutral compound is zero.
- The algebraic sum of all the oxidation numbers of all atoms in an ion containing more than one kind of atom is equal to the charge on the ion.
For example, let us find the oxidation state of Cr in Cr₂O₇²⁻
This would be: 2x + 7(-2) = -2
x = +6
We see that the oxidation number of Cr, a transition metal in the given ion is +6.
Number of Atoms in Gold for given mass can be calculated using following formula,
# of Moles = Number of Atoms / 6.022 × 10²³
Or,
Number of Atoms = Moles × 6.022 × 10²³ ------- (1)
Calculating Moles,
As,
Moles = Mass / M.mass
So,
Moles = 4.25 g / 196.96 g/mol
Moles = 0.0215
Putting value of mole in eq.1,
Number of Atoms = 0.0215 × 6.022 × 10²³
Number of Atoms = 1.299 × 10²²
Result:
4.25 g of Gold Nugget contains 1.299 × 10²² Atoms.
