- 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_forwardWhat is the pH of a solution obtained by mixing 235 mL of NaOH with a pH of 11.57 and 316 mL of Sr(OH)2 with a pH of 12.09? Assume that volumes are additive.arrow_forwardEstimate the pH that results when the following two solutions are mixed. a) 50 mL of 0.3 M CH3COOH and 50 mL of 0.4 M KOH b) 100 mL of 0.3 M CH3COOH and 50 mL of 0.4 M NaOH c) 150 mL of 0.3 M CH3COOH and 100 mL of 0.3 M Ba(OH)2 d) 200 mL of 0.3 M CH3COOH and 100 mL of 0.3 M Ba(OH)2arrow_forward
- The base ethylamine (CH3CH2NH2) has a Kb of. A closely related base, ethanolamine(HOCH2CH2NH2), has a Kb of 3.2105. (a) Which of the two bases is stronger? (b) Calculate the pH of a 0.10M solution of the strong base?arrow_forwardTile pH of a solution of household ammonia, a 0.950 M solution of NH3 is 11.612. Determine Kb for NH3 from these data.arrow_forwardThe pH of a solution of Ba(OH)2 is 10.66 at 25 . What is the hydroxide ion concentration in the solution? If the solution volume is 125 mL, what mass of Ba(OH)2 must have been dissolved?arrow_forward
- Calculate [OH-] and pH in a solution in which the hydrogen sulfite ion, HSO3-, is 0.429 M and the sulfite ion is (a) 0.0249 M (b) 0.247 M (c) 0.504 M (d) 0.811 M (e) 1.223 Marrow_forwardWhat is the pH of a solution obtained by adding 13.0 g of NaOH to 795 mL of a 0.200 M solution of Sr(OH)2? Assume no volume change after NaOH is added.arrow_forwardUsing the diagrams shown in Problem 10-37, which of the four acids is the weakest acid?arrow_forward
- Barbituric acid, HC4H3N2O3, is used to prepare barbiturates, a class of drugs used as sedatives. A 325-mL aqueous solution of barbituric acid has a pH of 2.34 and contains 9.00 g of the acid. What is Ka for barbituric acid?arrow_forwardChloroacetic acid, HC2H2ClO2, has a greater acid strength than acetic acid, because the electronegative chlorine atom pulls electrons away from the OH bond and thus weakens it. Calculate the hydronium-ion concentration and the pH of a 0.0020 M solution of chloroacetic acid, Ka is 1.3 103.arrow_forwardUsing the diagrams shown in Problem 10-117, which of the solutions would have the greatest buffer capacity, that is, greatest protection against pH change, when the following occurs? a. A strong acid is added to the solution. b. A strong base is added to the solution.arrow_forward
