What is the concentration (molarity) of H in the solution? D. What is the pH of the solution?Explanation / Answer
mass of Sodium hydroxide taken =0.00053 and dissolved in 250 ml.
mass presnet per ml= 0.00053/250 gm/ml
1ml of this solution is taken, mass present in 1ml= 0.00053*1ml/250ml =0.00053/250 gm/ml
moles of NaOH = mass/molar mass=0.00053/(40*250)= 5.3*10-8 moles
this is diluted to 100ml =0.1L
Molarity= moles/Volume =5.3*10-8/0.1 =5.3*10-7M
pH= -log [H+]
since NaOH dissociates completely [OH-]= 5.3*10-7M, pOH-= -log [OH-]= -log (5.3*10-7)=6.3
pH+ pOH= 14
pH= 14-6.3= 7.7
2. mass of HCl present in 1ml= (0.00491/250)* 1 = 0.00001964 gm
the mass present in 1 ml is diluted to 100ml, moles = mass/molar mass =0.00001964/36.5 gmoles=5.4*10-7,
concentration of HCl= moles/Volume in L= 5.4*10-7 moles/(100/1000L)=5.4*10-6M
since HCl completely ionizes, [H+]= 5.4*10-6, pH= -log [H+]= -log (5.4*10-6)= 5.3
3. moles of HCl in 250ml of 0.25M= Molarity* Volume in L= 0.25*200/1000 =0.05 moles
moles of Zn= mass of zinc/ atomic weight=12/65.38=0.1835
The reaction between Zn and HCl is Zn+ 2HCl ----->ZnCl2+ H2
Theoretial molar ratio of Zn : HCl= 1:2, Actual molar ratio of Zn :HCl =0.1835:0.05= 0.1835/0.1835:0.05/0.1835= 1: 0.27
So HCl is limiting reactant. Since requires is 2 while supplied is only 0.27 for 1 mole of Zn. So all the HCl reacts.
2 mole of HCl reacts to give 1 mole of ZnCl2, 0.05 moles of HCl forms =0.05/2=0.025 moles of ZnCl2. This is present in 250ml, so concentration of ZnCl2= 0.025/(250/1000)=0.1M
moles of H2 prpduced= 0.5* moles of HCl used =0.5*0.05=0.025
pHmass of H2 produced =moles* molar mass =0.025*2=0.05 gm
HCl being strong acid ionizes completely, [H+]=0.25M
pH= -log [H+]= -log (0.25)= 0.60
