What is most likely the ph of a solution containing many hydroxide ions (oh-) and few hydrogen ions (h )?

SIZIF [17.4K]

PH of solution will be greater than seven (pH>7), that means that solution is basic (<span>pH above </span>7<span> is a base, the higher the number, the stronger is the base).
</span>pH (potential of hydrogenis) is a measure of the hydrogen ion (H⁺) concentration of a solution. <span>Solutions with a pH less than 7 are acidic.</span>

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

[RxN - Unbalanced] Mg (s) + HCl (aq) → MgCl (aq) + H₂ (g)

↓

[RxN - Balanced] 2Mg (s) + 2HCl (aq) → 2MgCl (aq) + H₂ (g)

[Given] 3.25 mol Mg

[Solve] x g HCl

<u>Step 2: Identify Conversions</u>

[RxN] 2 mol Mg → 2 mol HCl

[PT] Molar Mass of H - 1.01 g/mol

[PT] Molar Mass of Cl - 35.45 g/mol

Molar Mass of HCl - 1.01 + 35.45 = 36.46 g/mol

<u>Step 3: Stoich</u>

[S - DA] Set up: $\displaystyle 3.25 \ mol \ Mg(\frac{2 \ mol \ HCl}{2 \ mol \ Mg})(\frac{36.46 \ g \ HCl}{1 \ mol \ HCl})$
[S - DA] Multiply/Divide [Cancel out units]: $\displaystyle 127.61 \ g \ HCl$
