a.
Interpretation : The range of pH values in the basic solution is to be identified.
Concept Introduction : The negative logarithm of the concentration of hydrogen ions is the pH of a solution. The formula to calculate pH is given as
a.
Answer to Problem 19LC
The range of pH value in the basic solution is greater than 7.0.
Explanation of Solution
The values from 0 to 14 are the range of a pH scale.
pH greater than 7.0 designates a basic solution.
b.
Interpretation : The range of pH values in the acidic solution is to be identified.
Concept Introduction : The negative logarithm of the concentration of hydrogen ions is the pH of a solution. The formula to calculate pH is given as
b.
Answer to Problem 19LC
The range of pH values in the acidic solution is smaller than 7.0.
Explanation of Solution
The values from 0 to 14 are the range of a pH scale.
Acidic solutions have pH values below 7.0.
c.
Interpretation : The range of pH values in the basic solution is to be identified.

c.
Answer to Problem 19LC
The range of pH values in the neutral solution is 7.0.
Explanation of Solution
The values from 0 to 14 are the range of a pH scale.
A pH of 7.0 indicates a neutral solution.
