General, Organic, & Biological Chemistry
- A solution of baking soda, NaHCO3, has a pH of 10.08. What is the percent (by mass) of NaHCO3 in a 235-mL solution? (Assume a density of 1.00 g/mL.)arrow_forwardYou are asked to calculate the H+ concentration in a solution of NaOH(aq). Because sodium hydroxide is a base, can we say there is no H+. since having H+ would imply that the solution is acidic?arrow_forwardWrite equations that show H2PO4- acting both as an acid and as a base.arrow_forward
- A solution of acetic acid, HC2H3O2, on a laboratory shelf was of undetermined concentration. If the pH of the solution was found to be 2.57, what was the concentration of the acetic acid? The Ka of acetic acid is 1.7 105.arrow_forwardTo measure the relative strengths of bases stronger than OH, it is necessary to choose a solvent that is a weaker acid than water. One such solvent is liquid ammonia. (a) Write a chemical equation for the autoionization of ammonia. (b) What is the strongest acid and base that can exist in liquid ammonia? (c) Will a solution of HCI in liquid ammonia be a strong electrical conductor, a weak conductor, or a nonconductor? (d) Oxide ion (O2) is a stronger base than the amide ion (NH2). Write an equation for the reaction of O2 with NH3 in liquid ammonia. Will the equilibrium favor products or reactants?arrow_forwardConsider the following four solutions: (1) apple juice, pH 3.8, (2) pickle juice, pH 3.5, (3) carbonated beverage, pH 3.0, and (4) drinking water, pH 7.2. a. Which solution has the highest [H3O+]? b. Which solution has the highest [OH]? c. List the solutions in order of increasing acidity. d. List the solutions in order of decreasing basicity.arrow_forward
- The 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_forwardA sample of vinegar has a hydronium-ion concentration of 3.0 103 M. What is the pH of the vinegar?arrow_forwardUsing the diagrams shown in Problem 10-37, which of the four acids is the weakest acid?arrow_forward
- 12.62 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_forward8-13 Define (a) an Arrhenius acid and (b) an Arrhenius base.arrow_forwardA typical vitamin C tablet (containing pure ascorbic acid, H2C6H6O6) weighs 500. mg. One vitamin C tablet is dissolved in enough water to make 200.0 mL of solution. Calculate the pH of this solution. Ascorbic acid is a diprotic acid.arrow_forward
