Question

Of the compounds below, a 0.1 M aqueous solution of will have the lowest pH. KCN, K_a of HCN = 4.0*10^-10 NH_4NO_3, K_b pf NH_3 = 1.8*10^-5 NaOAc, k_a of HOAc = 1.8*10^-5 NaClO, K_a of HClO = 3.2*10^-8 NaHS, k_b of HS* = 1.8*10^-7 A Bronsted - Lowry acid is defined as a substance that increases [H^+] when placed in H_2O decreases [H^+] when placed in H_2O increases [OH^-] when placed in H_2O acts as a proton acceptor acts as a proton donor The pH of 0.01 M solution of Ca(OH)_2. 1.67 12.3 10.2 2 0.01 A 0.1 M solution of has a pH of 7.0. Na_2S NaNO_3 NH_4Cl NaF

Explanation / Answer

1.         CN- + H2O ----------> HCN + H2O

    I         0.1                           0         0

   C       -x                             +x         +x

   E      0.1-x                          +x         +x

              Kb     = Kw/Ka

                        = 1*10-14/4*10-10   = 2.5*10-5

             Kb     = [HCN][OH-]/[CN-]

              2.5*10-5 = x*x/0.1-x

              2.5*10-5 *(0.1-x)   = x2

                          x= 0.00156

                [OH-]   =x = 0.00156M

               POH   = -log[OH-]

                        = -log0.00156

                        = 2.8068

              PH    = 14-POH

                     = 14-2.8068   = 11.1932

A) KCN , Ka of HCN = 4*10-10

2. proton donor is called Bronsted lowery acid.

E) act as proton donor

3.   Ca(OH)2 ---------> Ca+2   + 2OH-

        0.01                               2*0.01

   [OH-]    = 2*[Ca(OH)2]

               = 2*0.01M = 0.02M

    POH   = -log[OH-]

             =- log0.02

            = 1.6989

PH     = 14-POH

       = 14-1.6989

      = 12.3011

C) 12.2

4)

B)KF

it is a salt of strong acid and strong abase. so salt solution is neutral . PH -7
