- Why can we ignore the contribution of water to the concentrations of H3O+ in the solutions of following acids: 0.0092 M HClO, a weak acid. 0.0810 M HCN, a weak acid. 0.120 M Fe(H2O)62+ a weak acid, Ka=1.6107 but not the contribution of water to the concentration of OH?arrow_forwardFollow the directions of Question 65 for the following bases: (a) SO32- (b) CHO2- (c) NO2-arrow_forwardWill the following oxides give acidic, basic, or neutral solutions when dissolved in water? Write reactions to justify your answers. a. Li2O b. CO2 c. SrOarrow_forward
- Using your results from Exercise 133, place the species in each of the following groups in order of increasing base strength. a. OH, SH, SeH b. NH3, PH3 c. NH3, HONH2arrow_forwardWhich of the following conditions indicate an acidic solution? pH = 3.04 (H+| > 1.0 X IO’7 A/ pOH = 4.51 |OH-J = 3.21 X 10"12 Marrow_forwardAre solutions of the following salts acidic, basic, or neutral? For those that are not neutral, write balanced chemical equations for the reactions causing the solution to be acidic or basic. The relevant Ka and Kb values are found in Tables 13-2 and 13-3. a. NaNO3 b. NaNO2 c. C5H5NHClO4 d. NH4NO2 e. KOCl f. NH4OClarrow_forward

Write an equation for the chemical reaction from which the constant is derived.arrow_forwardAmmonium chloride and sodium dihydrogen phosphate, NaH2PO4, are mixed in water. Write a balanced equation for the acid-base reaction that could, in principle, occur. Using Table 16.2, decide whether the equilibrium lies predominantly to the right or to the left.arrow_forwardWhich of each pair of acids is stronger? Why? (a) HClO3, HClO4 (b) H2S, H2Searrow_forward
