What are the conjugate base and conjugate acid for HSO4−? What is the term used to describe species that can behave as either an acid or a base, depending on the chemical environment?
Over the past 250 years, the average upper-ocean pH near the Pacific Northwest has decreased by about 0.1 units, from about 8.2 to 8.1. This drop in pH corresponds to an increase in acidity of about 30%. When CO2 levels in seawater rise, the availability of carbonate ion, CO32−, makes it more difficult for marine organisms to build and maintain shells and other body parts from calcium carbonate.
Calculate H3O+ and OH− concentrations at pH levels of 8.2 and 8.1.
Demonstrate by calculations that this decrease in pH corresponds to an increase in acidity of about 30%.
Explain the relationship between the pH of seawater and the availability of carbonate ions. Does the change in pH from 8.2 to 8.1 result in an increase or decrease in the availability of carbonate ions?
6- According to the definition of an acid and the definition of a base, will the pH increase, decrease, or remain the same when NaCl is added to pure water? Explain.
7- What is a hydrogen bond? Explain how a hydrogen bond forms.
8- What feature of a soap molecule gives it cleaning ability?
9- What ion is responsible for a) acidic properties and b) basic properties?
10- Explain why a pH of 7 indicates a neutral solution -why not some other number?
