<u>Given information:</u>
Concentration of HCl = 0.035 M
<u>To determine:</u>
pH of the solution
<u>Explanation:</u>
Hydrochloric acid, HCl is a strong acid. It will completely dissociate to give H+ and Cl- ions
HCl → H+ + Cl-
Hence the concentration of H+ = Cl- = 0.035M
Now, pH measures the strength of H+ ions in a given solution. It is expressed as:
pH = -log[H+]
pH (HCl) = -log(0.035) = 1.46
Ans: pH of 0.035M HCl is 1.46
An accepted and universally true explanation of observed facts is a law.
Answer:
-Atoms are neutral; they contain the same number of protons as electrons. By definition, an ion is an electrically charged particle produced by either removing electrons from a neutral atom to give a positive ion or adding electrons to a neutral atom to give a negative ion.
-An atom has an equal number of protons and electrons. An ion has an imbalance between the number of protons and electrons.
-An atom has no electrical charge. Ions have an electrical charge because they have an imbalance of protons and electrons.
