Answer:

pH = 12.22

Explanation:

<em>... To make up 170mL of solution... The temperature is 25°C...</em>

<em />

The dissolution of Barium Hydroxide, Ba(OH)₂ occurs as follows:

Ba(OH)₂ ⇄ Ba²⁺(aq) + 2OH⁻(aq)

<em>Where 1 mole of barium hydroxide produce 2 moles of hydroxide ion.</em>

<em />

To solve this question we need to convert mass of the hydroxide to moles with its molar mass. Twice these moles are moles of hydroxide ion (Based on the chemical equation). With moles of OH⁻ and the volume we can find [OH⁻] and [H⁺] using Kw. As pH = -log[H⁺], we can solve this problem:

<em>Moles Ba(OH)₂ molar mass: 171.34g/mol</em>

0.240g * (1mol / 171.34g) = 1.4x10⁻³ moles * 2 =

2.80x10⁻³ moles of OH⁻

<em>Molarity [OH⁻] and [H⁺]</em>

2.80x10⁻³ moles of OH⁻ / 0.170L = 0.01648M

As Kw at 25°C is 1x10⁻¹⁴:

Kw = 1x10⁻¹⁴ = [OH⁻] [H⁺]

[H⁺] = Kw / [OH⁻] = 1x10⁻¹⁴/0.01648M = 6.068x10⁻¹³M

<em>pH:</em>

pH = -log [H⁺]

pH = -log [6.068x10⁻¹³M]

<h3>pH = 12.22</h3>

Answer:

120 mol Mg

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Chemistry - Stoichiometry</u>

  • Using Dimensional Analysis

Explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

120 moles H₂

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

RxN:   3 mol H₂ = 3 mol Mg

<u>Step 3: Stoichiometry</u>

<u />120 \ mol \ H_2(\frac{3 \ mol \ Mg}{3 \ mol \ H_2} ) = 120 mol Mg
