Chemistry: Principles and Practice
- A student prepares 455 mL of a KOH solution, but neglects to write down the mass of KOH added. His TA suggests that he take the pH of the solution. The pH is 13.33. How many grams of KOH were added?arrow_forwardConsider a 0.45 M solution of ascorbic acid,H2C6H6O6, one form of Vitamin C. H2C6H6O6(aq)HC6H6O6(aq)+ H+(aq)K a=7.9 10 5 HC6H6O6(aq)C6H6O62(aq)+ H+(aq)K a=1.6 10 12 Calculate the pH of this solution and estimate [ HC6H6O6 ] and[ C6H6O62 ].arrow_forwardThe weak base, CIO (hypochlorite ion), is used in the form of NaCIO as a disinfectant in swimming pools and water treatment plants. What are the concentrations of HCIO and OH and the pH of a 0.015 M solution of NaCIO?arrow_forward
- A common detergent has a pH of 11.0, so the detergent is: a.neutral. b.acidic. c.alkaline. d.none of the above.arrow_forwardYou are asked to determine whether an unknown white solid is acidic or basic. You also need to say whether the acid or base is weak or strong. You are given the molar mass of the solid and told that it is soluble in water. Describe an experiment that you can perform to obtain the desired characteristics of the white solid.arrow_forwardWhy have chemists not tabulated the fraction ionized for different acids? Such a table would make problems such as calculating the pH of an acid solution quite simple.arrow_forward
