- One half liter (500. mL) of 2.50 M HCl is mixed with 250. mL of 3.75 M HCl. Assuming the total solution volume after mixing is 750. mL, what is the concentration of hydrochloric acid in the resulting solution? What is its pH?arrow_forwardA mountain lake that is 4.0 km × 6.0 km with an average depth of 75 m has an H+(aq) concentration of 1.3 × 10−6 M. Calculate the mass of calcium carbonate that would have to be added to the lake to change the H+(aq) concentration to 6.3 × 10−8 M. Assume that all the carbonate is converted to carbon dioxide, which bubbles out of the solution.arrow_forwardClassify the following as acid-base reactions or oxidation-reduction reactions: (a) Na2S(aq)+2HCl(aq)2NaCl(aq)+H2(g) (b) 2Na(s)+2HCl(aq)2NaCl(aq)+H2(g) (c) Mg(s)+Cl2(g)MgCl2(s) (d) MgO(s)+2HCl(aq)MgCl2(aq)+H2+O(l) (e) K3P(s)+2O2(g)K3PO4(s) (f) 2KOH(aq)+H3PO4(aq)K3PO4(aq)+3H2O(l)arrow_forward
