Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The molarity of a solution of HClO4 of amount 25.00mL is to be determined by the student. The student is also using 0.731M KOH. He forgets to add the indicator in solution after the addition of KOH of volume 42.35 mL into the solution. At this condition, he takes the pH of the solution which is 12.39. It has to be determined if the student go beyond equivalence point or not.
Concept introduction:
The titration is described as the process by which the concentration of the dissolved substance is to be determined in terms of the smallest amount of reagent of a given concentration. It can also be known as volumetric titration.
(b)
Interpretation:
The molarity of strong acid is to be determined.
Concept introduction:
The molarity can be calculated as follows:
The relation between pH and pOH is as follows:
The pOH can be calculated as follows:
(c)
Interpretation:
The volume of KOH is to be determined which is added in excess if he added. Or the volume of KOH is to be determined which is required to add if he didn’t add.
Concept introduction:
The formula which will be used is −
Here, M is molarity and V is volume.

- A solution of sodium cyanide, NaCN, has a pH of 12.10. How many grams of NaCN are in 425 mL of a solution with the same pH?arrow_forwardSodium bicarbonate, NaHCO3, is used in baking powder formulations and in the manufacture of plastics and ceramics, among other things. If 26.3 g of the compound is dissolved in enough water to make 200. mL of solution, what is the concentration of NaHCO3? What are the concentrations of the ions in solution?arrow_forwardThe active ingredient of bleach such as Clorox is sodium hypochlorite (NaClO). Its conjugate acid, hypochlorous acid (HClO), has a Ka of 3.0 × 10^–8. (a) The undiluted bleach contains roughly 1 M NaClO. Calculate the pH of 1 M NaClO solution. (b) Some applications require extremely diluted bleach solution, such as swimming pools. Suppose the solution in (a) is diluted by 10,000 -fold. Calculate the pH of the diluted solution, and demonstrate that you can still neglect the autoionization of water in your calculation. (c) Suppose the solution in (a) is diluted by 1 million-fold, briefly explain how your approach will be different. Write the equation with [H3O+] as the unknown, but you do not need to solve it.arrow_forward

The temperature of the first glass is at 298 K, while the second glass has a temperature of 303 K. It has been determined that the Kw value for the second glass of water is 1.47 x 10-¹4. Which of the following statements is true? (a) The pH of the room temperature glass is higher, but both glasses have the same acidity. (b) The room temperature glass of water has a higher pH, and is more basic than the other glass of water. (c) Both glasses of water are neutral, so both will have a pH of 7.00. (d) The room temperature water has a lower pH, so is more acidic. (e) The warmer glass of water has a lower pH, and is more acidic than the other glass of water.arrow_forward2.0 g of NaOH is dissolved in distilled water to prepare 100 mL solution. 20.0 mL of this solution reaches to the equivalence point when 25 mL of an acid solution containing 1.22 monoprotic weak acid is added.
