Which statement is true for a solution when its concentration of hydroxide ions increases? It becomes more acidic. It becomes le

makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

Its pH value increases.

Explanation:

pH is the measure of alkalinity or acidity of a compound.

pH = - log [H+]

and pH + pOH = 14

where pOH is the measure of basicity of a solution, given by -log[OH-]

As a solution gets more basic that is higher [OH-], the pH increases, and on the other hand, as the pH of a solution decreases by one pH unit, the concentration of H+ increases by ten times.

#1: Which of the following is an exothermic reaction?

aleksandrvk [35]

<span>An exothermic reaction is one in which heat is released from the reagents into the ambient environment. Perhaps somewhat counterintuitively, condensation is in fact an example of such a reaction. During the process of the gas-to-liquid phase change, water goes from a higher-energy to lower-energy state of matter, and, as such, releases heat into the environment.</span>

Lemur [1.5K]

Explanation:

Common ion effect is defined as the effect which occurs on equilibrium when a common ion (an ion which is already present in the solution) is added to a solution. This effect generally decreases the solubility of a solute.

Equilibrium reaction of strontium sulfate and sodium sulfate follows the equation:

$RbClO(s)\rightarrow Rb^{+}(aq.)+ClO^{-}(aq.)$

$HClO(aq)+H_2O\rightleftharpoons H_3O^+(aq.)+ClO^{-}(aq.)$

According to Le-Chateliers principle: If there is any change in the variables of the reaction, the equilibrium will shift in the direction in order to minimize the effect.

In the equilibrium reactions, hypochlorite ion is getting increased on the product side, so the equilibrium will shift in the direction to minimize this effect, which is in the direction of hydrogen hypochlorite.

Thus, the addition hypochlorite ions will shift the equilibrium in the left direction.

The dissociation of hydrogen hypochlorite is suppressed due to the common ion effect.
