Concept explainers

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 equilibri…

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.

Calculate the concentration of all solute species in each of the following solutions of acids or bases. Assume that the ionization of water can be neglected, and show that the change in the initial concentrations can be neglected. Ionization constants can be found.(a) 0.0092 M HClO, a weak acid(b) 0.0784 M C6H5NH2, a weak base(c) 0.0810 M HCN, a weak acid(d) 0.11 M (CH3)3N, a weak base(e) 0.120 M Fe(H2 O)6 2+ a weak acid, Ka = 1.6 × 10−7

(a) Acid rain is no threat to lakes in areas where the rock is limestone (calcium carbonate), which can neutralize the acid. Wherethe rock is granite, however, no neutralization occurs. How does limestone neutralize acid? (b) Acidic water can be treated withbasic substances to increase the pH, although such a procedure is usually only a temporary cure. Calculate the minimum mass oflime, CaO, needed to adjust the pH of a small lake (V = 4 x 109 L) from 5.0 to 6.5. Why might more lime be needed?

Determine the pH of each of the following solutions. (a) 0.549 M hydrogen peroxide (weak acid with Ка 3 2.4e-12). (b) 0.615 M acetic acid (weak acid with Ka 1.8e-05). (c) 0.866 M pyridine (weak base with Kp = 1.7e- 09).
