1. Observation-- making observations and taking notes about what you see, smell, hear, think, etc.
2. Question-- developing a question to test your observations.
3. Hypothesis-- creating an educated guess as to the answer of your question.
Answer is: pH value of solution of NaC₂H₃O₂ is 9.07.
Chemical reaction: C₂H₃O₂⁻ + H₂O ⇄ HC₂H₃O₂ + OH⁻.
Ka(HC₂H₃O₂) = 1,8·10⁻⁵.<span>
Ka · Kb = Kw.
</span>1,8·10⁻⁵ mol/dm³ · Kb = 1·10⁻¹⁴ mol²/dm⁶; the ionic product of water at 25°C.<span>
Kb(</span>C₂H₃O₂⁻)
= 1·10⁻¹⁴ mol²/dm⁶ ÷ 1,8·10⁻⁵ mol/dm³.<span>
Kb(</span>C₂H₃O₂⁻) =
5,56·10⁻¹⁰ mol/dm³.
c(C₂H₃O₂⁻) = 0,25 M.
[OH⁻] = [HC₂H₃O₂] = x.
[C₂H₃O₂⁻] = 0,25 M - x.
Kb = [OH⁻] · [HC₂H₃O₂] / [C₂H₃O₂⁻].
5,56·10⁻¹⁰ = x² / (0,25 M -x).
Solve quadratic equation: x = [OH⁻] = 0,0000118 M.
pOH = -log[OH⁻] = -log(0,0000118M) = 4,93.
pH + pOH = 14.
pH = 14 - 4,93 = 9,07.
Answer:
D. 7
Explanation:
The halogens are found in Group 7 of the Periodic Table. If Bromine is a halogen, then that means it would be found in Group 7. Also, elements in Group 7 have 7 electrons in its outer shell, Bromine would have 7 electrons in its outer shell.
