Concept explainers
Interpretation:
of the solution prepared by mixing HCl gas and ammonia liquid is to be determined with given volume of HCl, volume and concentration of ammonia, and pressure.
Concept introduction:
is a measure to specify the acidity or basicity of an aqueous solution.
The number of moles of a gas is determined as follows:
Here,
is the pressure of gas,
is the volume of gas,
is the temperature.
The relationship between

to
The number of moles of compound is calculated by the equation:
Here, M is the concentration of solution in molarity, m is the number of moles of solute, and V is the volume of the solution.

- Boric acid, B(OH)3, is used as a mild antiseptic. What is the pH of a 0.015 M aqueous solution of boric acid? What is the degree of ionization of boric acid in this solution?

Justify your answer. c Calculate the H3O+ concentration and the pH of the solution. d Is there any concentration of the base OH present in this solution of HCl(aq)? If so, where did it come from? e If you increase the OH concentration of the solution by adding NaOH, does the H3O+ concentration change? If you think it does, explain why this change occurs and whether the H3O+ concentration increases or decreases. f 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. g Explain how two different volumes of your original HCl solution can have the same pH yet contain different moles of H3O+. h If 1.0 L of pure water were added to the HCl solution, would this have any impact on the pH? Explain.arrow_forwardThe pH of Mixtures of Acid, Base, and Salt Solutions a When 0.10 mol of the ionic solid NaX, where X is an unknown anion, is dissolved in enough water to make 1.0 L of solution, the pH of the solution is 9.12. When 0.10 mol of the ionic solid ACl, where A is an unknown cation, is dissolved in enough water to make 1.0 L of solution, the pH of the solution is 7.00. What would be the pH of 1.0 L of solution that contained 0.10 mol of AX? Be sure to document how you arrived at your answer. b In the AX solution prepared above, is there any OH present?

The pH of the resulting solution is found to be 3.12. Explain why the pH of this solution is 3.12. f Finally, consider a different 1.0-L sample of solution that contains 0.10 mol of AX and 0.1 mol of NaOH. The pH of this solution is found to be 13.00. Explain why the pH of this solution is 13.00. g Some students mistakenly think that a solution that contains 0.10 mol of AX and 0.10 mol of HCl should have a pH of 1.00. Can you come up with a reason why students have this misconception? Write an approach that you would use to help these students understand what they are doing wrong.arrow_forward
