How many grams of NaCN are in 425 mL of a solution with the same pH?arrow_forwardcalculate the pH of the following solution; (a)2.8 × 10–⁴M Ba (OH)2 (b) 5.2 × 10–⁴M HNO3·arrow_forward
- Calculate the concentration of all solute species in each of the following solutions of acids or bases. Assume that the ionization of water can be neglected, and show that the change in the initial concentrations can be neglected. Ionization constants can be found.(a) 0.0092 M HClO, a weak acid(b) 0.0784 M C6H5NH2, a weak base(c) 0.0810 M HCN, a weak acid(d) 0.11 M (CH3)3N, a weak base(e) 0.120 M Fe(H2 O)6 2+ a weak acid, Ka = 1.6 × 10−7arrow_forward(a) A 50.0 mL solution is prepared to be 1.29 M acetylsalicylic acid. In the first step, 8.55 mL of NaOH is titrated into the solution until the pH is exactly 5.0. What is the concentration of the titrant (NaOH)? (b) In the second step, enough 5.85 M nitric acid is added to the solution after the titration in part (a) is complete until the pH is one unit lower than the pKa of acetylsalicylic acid.

- Determine the pH of each solution and classify it as acidic,basic, or neutral.(a) pOH = 8.5(b) pOH = 4.2(c) pOH = 1.7(d) pOH = 7.0arrow_forwardSuppose that, instead of using NaOH, a base such as Ba(OH)2 had been used. What changes in the calculations would then have to be made to determine the molar concentrations of the base?arrow_forwardAcidity of a solution is determined by the concentration H of hydrogen ions in the solution (measured in moles per liter of solution). Chemists use the negative of the logarithm of the concentration of hydrogen ions to define the pH scale, as shown in the following formula. pH = - log (H) Lower pH values indicate a more acidic solution. (a) Normal rain has a pH value of 5.6. Rain in the eastern United States often has a pH level of 3.8. How much more acidic is this than normal rain? (Round your answer to two decimal places.) times as acidic as normal rain(b) If the pH of water in a lake falls below a value of 5, fish often fail to reproduce.
