What is the pH of a 0.08 M solution of Ca(OH),?

Chemistry
1 answer:
torisob [31]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

pH = 12.20

Explanation:

Ca(OH)2 is a strong base, so it dissociates completely. A 0.08 M solution of Ca(OH)2 is 0.16 M OH-, since every mole of Ca(OH)2 has 2 OH-.

Calculate pOH using [OH-] = 0.16 M

pOH = -log(0.16) = 0.80

pH = 14 - pOH = 14 - 0.80 = 12.20

A. Describe the molecule chlorine dioxide, CIO in terms of three possible resonance structures.
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The compound ClO2 has 19 valence electrons.  ClO2 is a bent molecule with tetrahedral electron pair geometry but has two  lone pairs of electrons. This is indicated by the presence of four electron pairs on the outermost shell of the central atom.

The molecule has an odd number of valence electrons, hence, it is generally regarded as a paramagnetic radical. None of the proposed Lewis structures for the molecule is satisfactory because none of them obeys the octet rule.

From the images attached, one can easily see that the electron dots around the oxygen and chlorine atoms does not satisfy the octet rule in all the resonance structures shown.

What is the main factor that prevents the growth of tropical plants in northern part of the United States ?
slamgirl [31]

The main factor that prevents the growth of tropical plants in the northern part of the United States is the climate. The tropical plants require specific conditions to grow and flourish, including warm climate throughout the year, higher precipitation, lots of sunlight. This conditions are lacking in the northern part of the United States where we have smaller amount of sunlight, mostly cloudy sky, and the winters are extremely cold and with lots of snow, and this will contribute to the dying of a tropical plant.
