Calculate the `pH` of the following solutions: a. `2 g` of `TlOH` dissolved in water to give `2` litre of solution. b. `0.3 g` of `Ca(OH)_(2)` dissolved in water to give `500 mL` of solution. c. `0.3 g` of `NaOH` dissolved in water to give `200 mL` of solution. d. `1 mL` of `13.6 M HCl` is duluted with water to give `1` litre of solution. |
Answer» Correct Answer - a) `11.65` , b) `12.21`, c) `12.57` , d) `1.87` (a) For 2g of TlOH dissolved in water to give 2 L of solution: `[TIOH_((aq))] = (2)/(2)g//L` `= 2/2 xx 1/(221) M` `= 1/(221) M` `TlOH_((aq)) rarr Tl_((aq))^(+) + OH_((aq))^(-)` `[OH_((aq))^(-)] = [TlOH_((aq))] = 1/(221) M` `K_(w) = [H^(+)] [OH^(-)]` `10^(-4) = [H^(+)] ((1)/(221))` `221 xx 10^(-14) = [H^(+)]` `rArr pH = - "log" [H^(+)] = - "log" (221 xx 10^(-14))` `= - "log" (221 xx 10^(-12))` `= 11.65` (b) For `0.3 g` of `Ca(OH)_(2)` dissolved in water to give mL of solution: `Ca(OH)_(2) rarr Ca^(2) + 2OH^(-)` `[Ca(OH)_(2)] = 0.3 x (1000)/(500) = 0.6 M` `[OH_((aq))^(-)] = 2 xx [Ca(OH)_(2aq)] = 2 xx 0.6` `= 1.2 M` `[H^(+)] = (K_(w))/([OH_(aq)^(-)])` `= (10 - 14) M` `= 0.833 xx 10^(-14)` `pH = - "log" (0.833 xx 10^(-14))` `= - "log" (8.33 xx 10^(-13))` `= (-0.902 + 13)` `= 12.098` (c) For `0.3 g` of `NaOH` dissolved in water to give 200 mL of solution. `NaOH rarr Na_((aq))^(+) + OH_((aq))^(-)` `[NaOH] = 0.3 xx (1000)/(200) = 1.5 M` `[OH_(aq)^(-)] = 1.5 M` Then, `[H^(+)] = (10^(-14))/(1.5)` `= 6.66 xx 10^(-13)` `pH =- "log" (6.66 xx 10^(-13))` `= 12.18` (d) For 1mL of 13.6 M HCl diluted with water to give 1 L of solution: `13.6 ×x 1 mL = M_(2) × 1000 mL` (Before dilution) (After dilution) `13.6 ×x 10^(-3) = M_(2) × 1L` `[H^(+)] = 1.36 × 10^(-2)` `pH = - "log" (1.36 × 10^(-2))` `= (– 0.1335 + 2)` `= 1.866 ∼ 1.87` |
