This is a Dry Lab since we cannot meet on Campus. After calibrating a pH meter you would have measured the pH of four different Basic Aqueous Solutions and examined the data for trends. You would have calculated the expected pH of each of the strong base solutions by assuming that for every NaOH formula unit that dissolves, one OH- ion is released. Thus, we can assume that the OH- Molarity equals the NaOH Molarity. Using the OH- Molarity and the water ionization equilibrium expression (Kw= 1.0 X 10 to the -14 power = H+ Molarity X OH- Molarity), we can calculate the H+ Molarity of the solution. Using the H+ Molarity, we can calculate the solution's pH. Thus a 1.0 X 10 to the 4 power NaOH solution has a pH of 10. The calculated pH value is arrived at as follows. By rearranging the water ionization equilibrium expression and plugging in the OH- Molarity, we can solve for H+ Molarity. H+ M = 1.0 X 10 to the -14 power divided by 1.0 X 10 to the -4 power= 1.0 X 10 to the 10 power. pH= -log (1.0 X 10 to the -10 power)= 10 I Calculate the expected pH of these three NaOH solutions, complete the table, answer the questions and email it to me at jpanek@mc3.edu.

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.
