Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The change that occurs in the saturated
Concept Introduction:
A reaction is said to be in equilibrium if the rate at which the forward reaction takes place becomes equal to the rate at which the backward reaction takes place. If any of the factors that affect the equilibrium changes, then the reaction shifts in either forward or backward direction so that the equilibrium condition is re-established. According to the Le Chatelier’s principle, the change in concentration, volume, pressure and temperature affects the equilibrium of the reaction.
(b)
Interpretation:
The change that occurs in the saturated

(c)

(d)

- In chemistry, p H = − log [ H + ] . Given that C is the original concentration of hydrogen ions in a liquid, and P is the original p H of the liquid, P = − log ( C ) . What is the effect on p H if the concentration of hydrogen ions is increased by a factor of 2 ?arrow_forwardYou have two different concentrations of a buffer solution, 2.0 M and 0.20 M, to which 0.01 mol HCl has been added. Which of these solutions has the higher buffer capacity? In other words, which would be able to resist pH via the addition of acid longer?arrow_forwardWrite the net ionic equation in which the slightly soluble salt magnesium oxalate, MgC2O4, dissolves in dilute hydrochloric acid. Write the solution clear and step by step.arrow_forward
- Complete the following solubility constant expression for Fe(OH)2.arrow_forwardEven though Ca(OH)2 is an inexpensive base, its limited solubility restricts its use. What is the pH of a saturated solution of Ca(OH)2?arrow_forwardAcrylic acid is used in the polymer industry in the production of acrylates. Its K, is 5.6 X 10“’. What is the pH of a 0.11 M solution of acrylic acid, CH2CHCOOH?arrow_forward
- A buffer is prepared by dissolving 0.0250 mol of sodium nitrite, NaNO2, in 250.0 mL of 0.0410 M nitrous acid, HNO2. Assume no volume change after HNO2 is dissolved. Calculate the pH of this buffer.arrow_forwardAn aqueous solution of 0.057 M weak acid, HX, has a pH of 4.65. What is the pH of the solution if 0.018 mol of KX is dissolved in one liter of the weak acid?arrow_forwardWrite the net ionic equation in which the slightly soluble salt magnesium oxalate, MgC2O4, dissolves in dilute hydrochloric acid. Write the solution step by step.arrow_forward
- If x represents the molar solubility of Ba3(PO4)2, what is the correct equation for the Ksp?arrow_forwardIf we have a buffer solution(NaHCO3+H2CO3)and combine it with hydrochloric acid, what is the reaction of the buffer solution that does not allow the pH to increase?arrow_forwardAt 22 °C, an excess amount of a generic metal hydroxide, M(OH)2, is mixed with pure water. The resulting equilibrium solution has a pH of 10.16. What is the Ksp of the salt at 22 °C?arrow_forward
