What is the pH of a 0.0042 M hydrochloric acid solution?
babymother [125]

Answer:

E) 2.38

Explanation:

The pH of any solution , helps to determine the acidic strength of the solution ,

i.e. ,

  • Lower the value of pH , higher is its acidic strength

and ,

  • Higher the value of pH , lower is its acidic strength .

pH is given as the negative log of the concentration of H⁺ ions ,

hence ,

pH = - log H⁺

From the question ,

the concentration of the solution is 0.0042 M , and being it a strong acid , dissociates completely to its respective ions ,

Therefore , the concentration of H⁺ = 0.0042 M .

Hence , using the above equation , the value of pH can be calculated as follows -

pH = - log H⁺

pH = - log ( 0.0042 M )

pH =  2.38 .

In the reaction 2H2O (1)+ 2Cl^- (aq)= H2(g)+Cl2 (g)+ 2OH^-(aq), which substance is reduced?
Oksanka [162]

Answer:- C. H

Explanations:- Reduction is gain of electron. In other words we could say that decrease in oxidation number is reduction.

As per the rules, oxidation number of hydrogen in its compounds is +1(except metal hydrides) and the oxidation number of oxygen in its compounds is -2.

The oxidation number in elemental form is zero.

In H_2O , the oxidation number of H is +1 and oxidation number of O is -2. Oxidation number of Cl in Cl^- is -1. On product side, the oxidation number of hydrogen in H_2 is zero and in OH^- the oxidation number of H is +1 and that of O is -2. Oxidation number of Cl in Cl_2 is 0.

From above data, Oxidation number of O is -2 on both sides so it is not reduced.

Oxidation number of Cl is changing from -1 to 0 which is oxidation.

Oxidation number of H is changing from +1 to 0 which is reduction.

So, the right choice is C.H
