Answer:
a. pH = 2 b. pH = 3 c. pH = 1 d. Unanswerable
Explanation:
pH = -log[H+] OR pH = -log{H3O+]
and inversely
pOH = -log[OH-]
1. Determine what substance you are working with, (acid/base)
2. Determine whether or not that acid or base is strong or weak.
a. 1.0 x 10^-2M HCl
HCl is a strong acid, therefore it will dissociate completely into H+ and Cl- with all ions going to the H+, therefore, the concentration of HCl and concentration of H+ are going to be equal, meaning we simply take the negative logarithm of the concentration of HCl and that would equal pH
pH = -log[H+]
pH = -log(1.0x10^-2)
pH = 2
b. 1.0 x 10^-3M HNO3
HNO3 like part a, is a strong acid, therefore it would simply require you to take the negative logarithm of the concentration of the compound itself, to find its pH.
pH = -log[H+]
pH = -log(1.0 x 10^-3)
pH = 3
c. 1.0 x 10^-1M HI
Like the previous parts, HI is a strong acid
pH = -log[H+]
pH = -log(0.10)
pH = 1
d. HB isn't an element, nor is it a compound so that would be unanswerable.
Answer:
There is more space between gas particles than the size of the particles.
Explanation:
This scenario can be understand by taking a very simple example. As we know that 1 mole of any gas at standard temperature and pressure occupy 22.4 liters of volume. Lets take Hydrogen gas and Oxygen gas, 1 mole of each gas will occupy same volume. Why it is so? Why same volume although Oxygen is 16 times more heavier? This is because the space between gas molecules is very large. Approximately the distance between gas molecules is 300 times greater than their own diameter from its neighbor molecules.
Add 450 million grams to the solution
# moles = mass (g) / Mr (relative atomic mass)
# moles = 458 / ((23*2)+32+(16*4)
# moles= 458 / 142 = 3.2253521126760...
= 3.23 moles
