<em>Calculate the pH of the following substances formed during a volcanic eruption: </em>
<em>• Acid rain if the [H +] is 1.9 x 10-5 </em>
<em>• Sulfurous acid if [H +] = 0.10 </em>
<em>• Nitric acid if [H +] = 0.11</em>
<em />
<h3>Further explanation </h3>pH is the degree of acidity of a solution that depends on the concentration of H⁺ ions. The greater the value the more acidic the solution and the smaller the pH.
pH = - log [H⁺]
Answer:
7.5 g
Explanation:
There is some info missing. I think this is the original question.
<em>Ammonium phosphate ((NH₄)₃PO₄) is an important ingredient in many fertilizers. It can be made by reacting phosphoric acid (H₃PO₄) with ammonia (NH₃). What mass of ammonium phosphate is produced by the reaction of 4.9 g of phosphoric acid? Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.</em>

Step 1: Write the balanced equation
H₃PO₄ + 3 NH₃ ⇒ (NH₄)₃PO₄
Step 2: Calculate the moles corresponding to 4.9 g of phosphoric acid
The molar mass of phosphoric acid is 98.00 g/mol.
Step 3: Calculate the moles of ammonium phosphate produced from 0.050 moles of phosphoric acid
The molar ratio of H₃PO₄ to (NH₄)₃PO₄ is 1:1. The moles of (NH₄)₃PO₄ produced are 1/1 × 0.050 mol = 0.050 mol.
Step 4: Calculate the mass corresponding to 0.050 moles of ammonium phosphate
The molar mass of ammonium phosphate is 149.09 g/mol.
