Question
Why is HSO4–(aq) a weaker acid than H2SO4
A. Because HSO4–(aq) dissociates to a larger extent than H2SO4(aq), it is therefore a weak acid and a strong electrolyte.
B. Because HSO4–(aq) only dissociates to a small extent compared to H2SO4(aq), it is therefore a weak acid and a strong electrolyte.
C. Because HSO4–(aq) dissociates to a larger extent than H2SO4(aq), it is therefore a weak acid and a weak electrolyte.
D. Because HSO4–(aq) only dissociates to a small extent compared to H2SO4(aq), it is therefore a weak acid and a weak electrolyte.
E. It is not true; HSO4–(aq) is a stronger acid.
my inital guess was A but I think I am wrong

After calibrating a pH meter you would have measured the pH of four different Basic Aqueous Solutions and examined the data for trends. You would have calculated the expected pH of each of the strong base solutions by assuming that for every NaOH formula unit that dissolves, one OH- ion is released. Thus, we can assume that the OH- Molarity equals the NaOH Molarity. Using the OH- Molarity and the water ionization equilibrium expression (Kw= 1.0 X 10 to the -14 power = H+ Molarity X OH- Molarity), we can calculate the H+ Molarity of the solution. Using the H+ Molarity, we can calculate the solution's pH. Thus a 1.0 X 10 to the 4 power NaOH solution has a pH of 10. The calculated pH value is arrived at as follows. By rearranging the water ionization equilibrium expression and plugging in the OH- Molarity, we can solve for H+ Molarity. H+ M = 1.0 X 10 to the -14 power divided by 1.0 X 10 to the -4 power 1.0 X 10 to the 10 power. pH= -log…arrow_forward

Kal: Ka2: K₂3:arrow_forwardA chemical system is set up by placing some solid ammonium chloride in an ammonia solution. The equilibrium established can be represented as follows: NH4*(aq) + H2O(e) 2 H30*(aq) + NH3(aq) The pH of the solution is taken, then a small amount of NaOH(aq) is added and the pH is taken again. What can be said about the change in pH for the solution? The pH significantly increases because a strong base has been added to the solution. The pH significantly decreases because a strong base has been added to the solution. There is very little change to the pH of the solution. If anything the pH of the solution decreases slightly. There is very little change to the pH of the solution. If anything the pH of the solution increases slightly.arrow_forward
