- Indicate whether each of the following samples is acidic, basic, or neutral. a. butter, pH 6.1 b. lemon juice, pH 2.2 c. peach, pH 3.5 d. milk of magnesia, pH 10.5arrow_forwardTwo students were asked to determine the Kb of an unknown base. They were given a bottle with a solution in it. The bottle was labeled aqueous solution of a monoprotic strong acid. They were also given a pH meter, a buret, and an appropriate indicator. They reported the following data: volume of acid required for neutralization = 21.0 mL pH after 7.00 mL of strong acid added = 8.95 Use the students' data to determme the Kb of the unknown base.arrow_forwardConsider 50.0 mL of a solution of weak acid HA (Ka = 1.00 106), which has a pH of 4.000. What volume of water must be added to make the pH = 5.000?arrow_forward
- For oxyacids, how does acid strength depend on a. the strength of the bond to the acidic hydrogen atom? b. the electronegativity of the element bonded to the oxygen atom that bears the acidic hydrogen? c. the number of oxygen atoms? How does the strength of a conjugate base depend on these factors? What type of solution forms when a nonmetal oxide dissolves in water? Give an example of such an oxide. What type of solution forms when a metal oxide dissolves in water? Give an example of such an oxide.arrow_forward12.62 Write the formula of the conjugate acid of each of the following bases, (a) OH-, (b) NHj, (c) CHjNHt, (d) HPO/-, (e) CO.,2’arrow_forwardUsing the diagrams shown in Problem 10-37, which of the four acids is the weakest acid?arrow_forward
