The pH of the ocean is 8.1. What is the concentration of hydronium ions?

Chemistry
1 answer:
skad [1K]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

7.9 × 10⁻⁹ M

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

pH of the ocean: 8.1

Step 2: Calculate the concentration of hydronium ions

We will use the definition of pH.

pH = -log [H⁺] = -log [H₃O⁺]

[H₃O⁺] = [H⁺] = antilog -pH

[H₃O⁺] = antilog -8.1 = 7.9 × 10⁻⁹ M

Since [H₃O⁺] < 10⁻⁷ M, the solution is basic.

In every balanced chemical equation, each side of the equation has the same number of _____.
Ber [7]

The correct answer is option d, that is, atoms of the element.  

As the atoms are neither destroyed nor created in a chemical reaction, the sum of the mass of the products in a reaction must be equivalent to the sum of the mass of the reactants.  

The chemical reactions must be balanced, they must exhibit a similar number of atoms of each element on both the sides of the equation. As a consequence, the mass of the reactants must be equivalent to the mass of the products of the reaction.

What can be said about an Endothermic reaction with a negative entropy change?The reaction isa. spontaneous at all temperatures.
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

1. d. The reaction is spontaneous in the reverse direction at all temperatures.

2. c. The reaction is spontaneous at low temperatures.

Explanation:

The spontaneity of a reaction is associated with the Gibbs free energy (ΔG). When ΔG < 0, the reaction is spontaneous. When ΔG > 0, the reaction is non-spontaneous. ΔG is related to the enthalpy (ΔH) and the entropy (ΔS) through the following expression:

ΔG = ΔH - T. ΔS  [1]

where,

T is the absolute temperature (T is always positive)

<em>1. What can be said about an Endothermic reaction with a negative entropy change?</em>

If the reaction is endothermic, ΔH > 0. Let's consider ΔS < 0. According to eq. [1], ΔG is always positive. The reaction is not spontaneous in the forward direction at any temperature. This means that the reaction is spontaneous in the reverse direction at all temperatures.

<em>2. What can be said about an Exothermic reaction with a negative entropy change?</em>

If the reaction is exothermic, ΔH < 0. Let's consider ΔS < 0. According to eq. [1], ΔG will be negative when |ΔH| > |T.ΔS|, that is, at low temperatures.
