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.
![**Question:**
What is the pH of a 0.0068 M solution of Ba(OH)₂?
**Given:**
\( K_w = 1.0 \times 10^{-14} \)
**To Find:**
pH = [Calculation area for users]
**Explanation:**
To determine the pH of a Ba(OH)₂ solution, we first need to understand that Ba(OH)₂ is a strong base that dissociates completely in solution. Each Ba(OH)₂ unit releases two hydroxide ions (OH⁻).
1. **Calculate the concentration of OH⁻ ions:**
\[
[OH⁻] = 2 \times 0.0068\, \text{M} = 0.0136\, \text{M}
\]
2. **Calculate the pOH:**
\[
pOH = -\log[OH⁻] = -\log(0.0136) \approx 1.87
\]
3. **Determine the pH (since \( pH + pOH = 14 \)):**
\[
pH = 14 - pOH = 14 - 1.87 \approx 12.13
\]
Thus, the pH of the 0.0068 M Ba(OH)₂ solution is approximately 12.13.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F7a354f1c-cdfd-41e5-a863-9a86a504af1c%2F6facf7ae-f61b-4582-b580-a6f386b3a525%2Fy7nt80e_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
