General Chemistry: Atoms First
- The pH of a 2.642M solution of a weak acid, HB is 2.34, What is the Ka for the acid?arrow_forwardThe concentration of CH3COOH (pKa=4.75) in vinegar is about 1.0 M. With this what do you predict the pH of vinegar to be?arrow_forwardConsider, barium hydroxide, Ba(OH) 2 , a white powdery substance used in the treatment of wastewater . A student is asked by his laboratory instructor to prepare 45.5 mL of a solution containing 4.23g of Ba(OH) 2 What is the calculated pH of the prepared solution?arrow_forward
- Milk of Magnesia, a suspension of Mg(OH)2, a laxative, can be used as treatment for constipation among children and adults. If the formulation is 0.400 g/L, how many grams of the substance remains undissolved and what is the pH of the suspension? The Ksp of Mg(OH)2 is 1.8x10^-11arrow_forwardWhat is the molarity of a solution made by dissolving 3.4 g of Ba(OH)2 in enough water tomake 450. mL of solution? Assume that Ba(OH)2 dissociates completely in water to Ba2+ andOH¯ ions. What is the pH of the solution?arrow_forwardThe pH of an aqueous solution of 0.137 M sodium hypochlorite, NaClO (aq), is ________________ This solution is: ________ (ACIDIC, BASIC, OR NEUTRAL?)arrow_forward
- The [H3O+] of Coca-Cola Classic ® is 3.2 x 10-3. What is its pH? Is it acidic or basic?arrow_forwardChemistry The label of an energy drink states that it contains approximately 80 mg of caffeine (C8H10N4O2) per 250 mL serving. If the caffeine is a weak base with a basicity constant of 2.5 × × 10-4, what is the pH of the drink? (Only caffeine is considered to contribute to the pH of the drink.)arrow_forwardYou have a 0.0685 M solution of Ca(OH)2, what is the pH of your solution?arrow_forward
- The pH of a solution of M(OH)2 is 13.08 . What is the molarity of the M2+ ion?arrow_forwardSuppose that, instead of using NaOH, a base such as Ba(OH)2 had been used. What changes in the calculations would then have to be made to determine the molar concentrations of the base?arrow_forward(a) Acid rain is no threat to lakes in areas where the rock is limestone (calcium carbonate), which can neutralize the acid. Wherethe rock is granite, however, no neutralization occurs. How does limestone neutralize acid? (b) Acidic water can be treated withbasic substances to increase the pH, although such a procedure is usually only a temporary cure. Calculate the minimum mass oflime, CaO, needed to adjust the pH of a small lake (V = 4 x 109 L) from 5.0 to 6.5. Why might more lime be needed?arrow_forward
