A solution has been prepared by dissolving 0.63 g of nitric acid in 100 mL. What is its pH value ? Assume that the acid is completely dissociated. |
Answer» Molar concentration of the solution `=("Amount of"HNO_(3)//"litre of solution")/("Molar mass of"HNO_(3)) = (0.63)/(100) xx (1000)/(63)` `=0.1 M` the complete dissociation of acid in solution is : `{:(HNO_(3)(l) ,+,H_(2)O(l) ,overset(aq)(to), H_(3)O^(+) ,+, NO_(3)^(-) (aq)),(,,,,0.1M,,0.1M):}` `pH=-log [H_(3)O^(+)] =- log[10^(-1)] =(-) (-log 10) =1` |
