Chapter 14, Problem 47QRT

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Without doing any calculations, the pH of 0.10M aqueous HNO2 solution has to be assigned from the given pH ranges: pH2, pH between 2and6, pH between 6and8, pH between 8and12, pH12.

Concept Introduction:

Strong acid with a concentration of 0.10M will have pH1.  The pH range of weak acids will be between 2and6.  Strong bases with a concentration of 0.10M will have pH13. The pH range of weak bases will be between 8and12.

(a)

Expert Solution

Explanation of Solution

HNO2 is a weak acid as its Ka value is 7.1×104.  Its pH will be between 2and6.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Without doing any calculations, the pH of 0.10M aqueous NH4Cl solution has to be assigned from the given pH ranges: pH2, pH between 2and6, pH between 6and8, pH between 8and12, pH12.

Concept Introduction:

Refer to part (a).

(b)

Expert Solution

Explanation of Solution

NH4Cl is a salt consisting of NH4+ ion and Cl ion.  NH4+ ion is a weak acid and its Kb value is 5.6×1010.  The Cl ions do not affect the pH of a water solution.  Thus, its pH will be between 2and6.

  NH4Cl(s)NH4+(aq)+Cl(aq)

(c)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Without doing any calculations, the pH of 0.10M aqueous NaF solution has to be assigned from the given pH ranges: pH2, pH between 2and6, pH between 6and8, pH between 8and12, pH12.

Concept Introduction:

Refer to part (a).

(c)

Expert Solution
Check Mark

Explanation of Solution

NaF is a salt consisting of Na+ ion and F ion.  F ion is a weak base and its Kb value is 1.5×1011.  The Na+ ions do not affect the pH of a water solution.  Thus, its pH will be between 8and12.

  NaF(s)Na+(aq)+F(aq)

(d)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Without doing any calculations, the pH of 0.10M aqueous Mg(CH3COO)2 solution has to be assigned from the given pH ranges: pH2, pH between 2and6, pH between 6and8, pH between 8and12, pH12.

Concept Introduction:

Explanation of Solution

Mg(CH3COO)2 is a salt consisting of Mg2+ ion and CH3COO ion.  CH3COO ion is a weak base and its Kb value is 5.6×1010.  The Mg2+ ions do not affect the pH of a water solution.  Thus, its pH will be between 8and12.

  Mg(CH3COO)2(s)Mg2+(aq)+2CH3COO(aq)

(e)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Without doing any calculations, the pH of 0.10M aqueous BaO solution has to be assigned from the given pH ranges: pH2, pH between 2and6, pH between 6and8, pH between 8and12, pH12.

Concept Introduction:

Refer to part (a).

(e)

Expert Solution
Check Mark

Explanation of Solution

BaO is a salt consisting of Ba2+ ion and O2 ion.  O2 ion is a strong base.  The Ba2+ ions do not affect the pH of a water solution.  Thus, its pH will be 12.

  BaO(s)Ba2+(aq)+O2(aq)

(f)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Without doing any calculations, the pH of 0.10M aqueous KHSO4 solution has to be assigned from the given pH ranges: pH2, pH between 2and6, pH between 6and8, pH between 8and12, pH12.

Concept Introduction:

Refer to part (a).

(f)

Expert Solution
Check Mark

Explanation of Solution

KHSO4 is a salt consisting of K+ ion and HSO4 ion.  The K+ ions do not affect the pH of a water solution.  HSO4 ion is a weak acid and a weak base.  Thus, the comparison of the value of KaandKb should be done.

  KHSO4(s)K+(aq)+HSO4(aq)HSO4(aq)+H2O(l)H3O+(aq)+SO42(aq)Ka=1.1×102HSO4(aq)+H2O(l)H2SO4(aq)+OH(aq)Kb=verysmall

HSO4 is a stronger acid than it is a base, thus its pH will be between 2and6.

(g)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Without doing any calculations, the pH of 0.10M aqueous NaHCO3 solution has to be assigned from the given pH ranges: pH2, pH between 2and6, pH between 6and8, pH between 8and12, pH12.

Concept Introduction:

Explanation of Solution

NaHCO3 is a salt consisting of Na+ ion and HCO3 ion.  The Na+ ions do not affect the pH of a water solution.  HCO3 ion is a weak acid and a weak base.  Thus, the comparison of the value of KaandKb should be done.

  NaHCO3(s)Na+(aq)+HCO3(aq)HCO3(aq)+H2O(l)H3O+(aq)+CO32(aq)Ka=4.7×1011HCO3(aq)+H2O(l)H2CO3(aq)+OH(aq)Kb=2.3×108

HCO3 is a stronger base than it is an acid, thus its pH will be between 8and12.

(h)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Without doing any calculations, the pH of 0.10M aqueous BaCl2 solution has to be assigned from the given pH ranges: pH2, pH between 2and6, pH between 6and8, pH between 8and12, pH12.

Concept Introduction:

Refer to part (a).

(h)

Expert Solution
