Calculate the pOH and the pH of a 5.0 x 10-2 M solution of NaOH.

Chemistry

Answer:

pOH = 1.3, pH = 12.7

Explanation:

Since NaOH is a strong base, it will completely ionize; further, since it completely ionizes, our hydroxide concentration (a product of the ionization) will be the same as the given concentration of NaOH.

NaOH -> Na⁺ + OH⁻, [OH⁻] = 5.0 x 10^-2 M

pOH is the negative log of the hydroxide concentration, so plug our hydroxide concentration in:

pOH = -log[OH⁻] = -log[5.0 x 10^-2 M] = 1.3

Since pH + pOH = 14, we can plug in pOH and solve for pH:

pH + 1.3 = 14

pH = 14 - 1.3 = 12.7

Thus, our pOH = 1.3 and pH = 12.7.

Which has more calories: table sugar or aspartame?
Alina [70]
Aspartame produces 4 kilocalories of energy per gram when metabolized, While table sugar produces 3.9 kilocalories. However, aspartame is approximately 200 times sweeter than table of sugar, so it is consumed in much smaller doses. Then we can say that they're pretty much the same

Three beakers contain clear, colorless liquids. one beaker contains pure water, another contains salt water, and another contain
tiny-mole [99]
First, we'll identify the beaker containing pure water as follows:
We'll take equal masses from each of the three beakers and measure the mass of each.
We'll then identify the density of each by using the rule : density =mass/volume
Pure water will be the liquid having density equal to 1 gm/cm^3

Then, we'll differentiate between the salt and sugar solution by measuring the conductivity of each solution. Salt solution is a good conductor while solution of sugar is a bad conductor.

goblinko [34]
This is true because if you put the tennis ball in boiling water, oxygen molecules in the ball will move more vigorously, thus the dent will disappear.
