(a)
Interpretation:
The hydrogen ion concentration and pH of given solutions of strong acids should be calculated.
Concept Introduction:
The concentration of hydrogen ions in a solution determines the acidity of a solution. If concentration of hydrogen ion is more than the solution is more acetic, if it is low, solution is less acidic.
The pH of solution is defined as negative log of hydrogen ion concentration thus, it can be calculated as follows:
Here,
Similarly, pOH of a solution is defined as negative log of hydroxide ion concentration thus, it can be calculated as follows:
Here,
pH and pOH of a solution are related to each other as follows:

INTRODUCTORY CHEMISTRY
- What are the major species present in 0.250 M solutions of each of the following acids? Calculate the pH of each of these solutions. a. HNO2 b. CH3CO2H(HC2H3O2)arrow_forwardAn aqueous solution contains formic acid and formate ion. Determine the direction in which the pH will change if each of the following chemicals is added to the solution. (a) HCl (b) NaHSO4 (c) CH3COONa (d) KBr (e) H2Oarrow_forwardFor each of the following pairs of solutions, indicate whether the first listed solution has a higher or lower pH than the second listed solution. a. 1.0 M NaOH and 1.0 M HCl b. 1.0 M HNO3 and 0.10 M HNO3 c. 0.10 M HClO4 and 0.10 M HCN d. [H3O+] = 3.3 103 and [H3O+] = 9.3 103arrow_forward
- Most naturally occurring acids are weak acids. Lactic acid is one example. CH3CH(OH)CO2H(s)+H2O(l)H3O+(aq)+CH3CH(OH)CO2(aq) If you place some lactic acid in water, it will ionize to a small extent, and an equilibrium will be established. Suggest some experiments to prow that this is a weak acid and that the establishment of equilibrium is a reversible process.arrow_forwardCalculate the pH and the pOH of each of the following solutions at 25 C for which the substances ionize completely: (a) 0.200 M HCl. (b) 0.0143 M NaOH. (c) 3.0 M HNO3. (d) 0.0031 M Ca(OH)2arrow_forwardCalculate the pH and the pOH of each of the following solutions at 25 C for which the substances ionize completely: (a) 0.000259 M HClO4. (b) 0.21 M NaOH.
