Question 6 Not^ yet^ graded^ /^0 pts

Question 5 Not yet graded / 0 pts

In the following reaction identify each reactant as a Lewis acid or a Lewisbase and explain your answers.

Na 2 O: + SO 3 → Na 2 SO 4

Your Answer:

Lewis acids are the species that can accept the pair of non bonding electrons whereas the lewis bases are the species that donate the pair ofnon bonding electrons. Above the pair of electrons accepted by SO3 , soSO3 is the lewis acid and Na2O: donates the electron pair so it is the lewis base.

Na 2 O = Lewis base because it is an electron-pair donor SO 3 =

Lewis acid because it is an electron-pair acceptor

HCl = Brønsted-Lowry acid because it is a H+^ donor NH 3 = Brønsted-Lowry base because it is a H+^ acceptor

Show the calculation of the [H+] of a solution whose [OH-] = 3.89 x 10 -^3 M. Explain whether this solution is acidic or basic.

Your Answer:

[OH+] [OH-] = 1.0x10^- 14

[H+] = 1.0x10^-14/[OH-]

Given

[H+] = 3.89x10^-14/ 3.89x10^- 3

=0.257x10^- 11

Show the calculation of the [H+] of a solution whose pH = 4.72.

Your Answer:

ph = 4.

= log [H+] = 3.

Question 15 Not^ yet^ graded^ /^0 pts

pH = 14 - pOH = 14 - 2.870 = 11.

[OH-] = [NaOH] = 0.00135 M pOH = - log (0.00135) =

Your Answer: [OH-] = 0. pOH = - log [OH-]

  • log [OH]= - log (0. = pOH = 2. we know, ph + poh = 14 =ph + 2.86 = 14 = ph = 14 - 2.86 = 11. so pH 0.00135 is a strong base

Show the calculation of the pH of a 0.00135 M solution of the strong base NaOH.

Question 14 Not^ yet^ graded^ /^0 pts

Show the calculation of the [OH-] of a solution whose pH = 10.34.

Your Answer:

pH + pOH= 14

P OH = 14 - pH

= 14 - 10.34 = 3.

pOH = - log 10 [OH]

log 10 - [OH-] = - pOH

= 10 - 3.

= 0.0002187M

[OH-] = 2.19 x 10-4 M

Question 16 Not^ yet^ graded^ /^0 pts

= [H+] = 10 ^4.

= [H+] = 1.90 x10 ^- 3 log [H+] = 1.9 x10 ^- 5

pH = 4. 4.72) = 1.9 x 10 -^5

[H+] = antilog (- pH) [H+] = antilog (-

Question 18 Not yet graded / 0 pts

In the titration of 0.127 grams of Al(OH) 3 in the presence of bromothymolblue indicator, the blue solution turns yellow after 22.3 mL of H 2 SO 4 of unknown concentration is added. Show the calculation of the molarity ofthe H 2 SO 4 solution?

Your Answer:

Now the reaction between base Al(OH)3 and acid H2SO4 is-

3H2SO4 + 2Al(OH)3 -------- > Al2(SO4)3 + 6H2O

Thus 2 moles of Al(OH) 3 is required to neutralize 3 moles of 3H2SO4.

0.127 grams used of Al(OH) 3. And number of moles of Al(OH)3 presentis-

weight of Al(OH)3 taken / molar mass of Al(OH)

= 0.127 grams / 78 g/mol

= 0.0016 mols

0.0016 mols of Al(OH) 3 can neutralize = (3/2) * 0.0016 mols of H2SO4.

= 0.0024 mols

H2SO4 present in 22.3 mL of solution.

concentration of H2SO4is = (no. of moles / Volume ) * 1000

= (0.0024 moles / 22.3 mL ) * 1000

( H Cl is the acid and Na OH is the base) Ma x mLa / 1000 x Sa / Sb = Mb x mLb / 1000 Ma x 26.3 / 1000 x 1 / 1 = 0.132 x 28.4 / 1000 MHCl = 0.143 M

= 0.107 M
