Answer:

hydronium and hydroxide ions are present both in pure water and in all aqueous solutions, and their concentrations are inversely proportional as determined by the ion product of water (Kw). The concentrations of these ions in a solution are often critical determinants of the solution’s properties and the chemical behaviors of its other solutes, and specific vocabulary has been developed to describe these concentrations in relative terms. A solution is neutral if it contains equal concentrations of hydronium and hydroxide ions; acidic if it contains a greater concentration of hydronium ions than hydroxide ions; and basic if it contains a lesser concentration of hydronium ions than hydroxide ions.

1 According to the kinetic-molecular theory, what happens to a liquid when it is transferred from one container to another?

devlian [24]

Answer 1 : The correct option is C.

Explanation :

The property of liquid is, they have fixed volume but do not have fixed shape. when a liquid is transferred from one container to another then the volume remains the same, but the shape changes according to the shape of the container.

Answer 2 : The correct option is A.

Explanation :

pH : It is defined as the negative logarithm of the hydronium ion concentration.

The expression of pH is,

$pH=-log[H_3O^+]$

A chemist prepares a solution of potassium iodide (KI) by measuring out 88. umol of potassium iodide into a 200. mL volumetric f

max2010maxim [7]

The concentration in mol/L of the chemist's potassium iodide solution : = 4.4 x 10⁻⁴ M

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

88. μmol of Potassium iodide

200. mL volumetric flask

Required

The concentration

Solution

Molarity is a way to express the concentration of the solution

Molarity shows the number of moles of solute in every 1 liter of solute or mmol in each ml of solution

$\large{\boxed {\bold {M ~ = ~ \frac {n} {V}}}$

Conversion :

88. μmol = 88 . 10⁺⁶ mol = 8.8 10⁻⁵ mol

200 ml = 0.2 L

The molarity :

= n : V

= 8.8.10⁻⁵ : 0.2

= 4.4 x 10⁻⁴ M
