Ionic Equilibrium
Chemical equilibrium and ionic equilibrium are two major concepts in chemistry. Ionic equilibrium deals with the equilibrium involved in an ionization process while chemical equilibrium deals with the equilibrium during a chemical change. Ionic equilibrium is established between the ions and unionized species in a system. Understanding the concept of ionic equilibrium is very important to answer the questions related to certain chemical reactions in chemistry.
Arrhenius Acid
Arrhenius acid act as a good electrolyte as it dissociates to its respective ions in the aqueous solutions. Keeping it similar to the general acid properties, Arrhenius acid also neutralizes bases and turns litmus paper into red.
Bronsted Lowry Base In Inorganic Chemistry
Bronsted-Lowry base in inorganic chemistry is any chemical substance that can accept a proton from the other chemical substance it is reacting with.
![### Calculating the pH of Solutions at 25°C
To determine the pH of each solution at 25°C and indicate whether the solution is acidic or basic, follow the given steps for each solution:
#### a) [H₃O⁺] = 2.9 x 10⁻⁵ M
#### b) [OH⁻] = 4.7 x 10⁻² M
For each solution:
1. **Calculate the pH or pOH**:
- For a solution with given [H₃O⁺], use the formula:
\[ \text{pH} = -\log[H₃O⁺] \]
- For a solution with given [OH⁻], first calculate the pOH using:
\[ \text{pOH} = -\log[OH⁻] \]
Then, convert pOH to pH using the relation:
\[ \text{pH} = 14 - \text{pOH} \]
2. **Determine if the solution is acidic or basic**:
- If pH < 7, the solution is acidic.
- If pH > 7, the solution is basic.
- If pH = 7, the solution is neutral.
By following these steps, you'll be able to identify whether the given solutions in the examples are acidic or basic based on their pH values.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Fdabc7e8b-d42d-4c7a-8b8c-eac102cb510a%2F74ac3328-2445-4277-b0d9-eedc6dea8d67%2Focc6o7j_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
