You make a solution by dissolving 0.0010 mol of hcl in enough water to make 1.0L of solutio. If you were to measure the pH of 10 drops of the original HCl solution, would you expect it to be different from the pH of the entire sample? Explain.
Ionic Equilibrium
Chemical equilibrium and ionic equilibrium are two major concepts in chemistry. Ionic equilibrium deals with the equilibrium involved in an ionization process while chemical equilibrium deals with the equilibrium during a chemical change. Ionic equilibrium is established between the ions and unionized species in a system. Understanding the concept of ionic equilibrium is very important to answer the questions related to certain chemical reactions in chemistry.
Arrhenius Acid
Arrhenius acid act as a good electrolyte as it dissociates to its respective ions in the aqueous solutions. Keeping it similar to the general acid properties, Arrhenius acid also neutralizes bases and turns litmus paper into red.
Bronsted Lowry Base In Inorganic Chemistry
Bronsted-Lowry base in inorganic chemistry is any chemical substance that can accept a proton from the other chemical substance it is reacting with.

Given : moles of HCl = 0.0010 mol
And volume of solution = 1.0 L
Since HCl is a strong acid. Hence it will dissociate completely into hydronium ions as per the reaction,
HCl (aq) + H2O (l) -------> H3O+ (aq) + Cl- (aq)
From the above reaction we can say that moles of H3O+ ions produced = moles of HCl taken = 0.0010 mol
Since moles = concentration X volume of solution in L
=> 0.0010 = concentration of H3O+ ions X 1.0
=> concentration of H3O+ ions = [H3O+ ] = 0.0010 M
Since pH = -log[H3O+ ]
=> pH of the entire solution = -log(0.0010) = 3.0
