To know the acidity of a
solution, we calculate the pH value. The formula for pH is given as:
<span>pH = - log [H+] where H+ must be in Molar</span>
We are given that H+ = 3.25 × 10-2 M
Therefore the pH is:
pH = - log [3.25 × 10-2]
pH = 1.488
Since pH is way below 7, therefore the solution
is acidic.
To find for the OH- concentration, we must
remember that the product of H+ and OH- is equivalent to 10^-14. Therefore,
[H+]*[OH-] = 10^-14 <span>
</span>[OH-] = 10^-14 / [H+]
[OH-] = 10^-14 / 3.25 × 10-2
[OH-] = 3.08 × 10-13 M
Answers:
Acidic
[OH-] = 3.08 <span>× 10-13 M</span>
Answer:
Explanation:
To calculate their average atomic masses which is otherwise known as the relative atomic mass, we simply multiply the given abundances of the atoms and the given atomic masses.
The abundace is the proportion or percentage or fraction by which each of the isotopes of an element occurs in nature.
This can be expressed below:
RAM = Σmₙαₙ
where mₙ is the mass of isotope n
αₙ is the abundance of isotope n
for this problem:
RAM of Li = m₆α₆ + m₇α₇
m₆ is mass of isotope Li-6
α₆ is the abundance of isotope Li-6
m₇ is mass of isotope Li-7
α₇ is the abundance of isotope Li-7
