Calculate the ph of a 0.005 m solution of potassium oxide k2o

Chemistry
1 answer:
Alecsey [184]2 years ago

First, we have to see how K2O behaves when it is dissolved in water:

K2O + H20 = 2 KOH

According to reaction K2O has base properties, so it forms a hydroxide in water.
For the reaction next relation follows:

c(KOH) : c(K2O) = 1 : 2

So,

c(KOH)= 2 x c(K2O)= 2 x 0.005 = 0.01 M = c(OH⁻)

Now we can calculate pH:

pOH= -log c(OH⁻) = -log 0.01 = 2

pH= 14-2 = 12

What is [h3o ] in a solution of 0.25 m ch3co2h and 0.030 m nach3co2?
Brilliant_brown [7]
Hello!

To determine [H₃O⁺], we need to apply the Henderson-Hasselback equation, since this is a case of an acid and its conjugate base:

pH=pKa+log( \frac{[A^{-}] }{[HA]} )

pH=4,76+log( \frac{0,030M}{0,25M} ) \\  \\ pH=3,84

Now, we use the definition of pH and clear [H₃O⁺] from there:

pH=-log[H_3O^{+}]

[H_3O^{+}] = 10^{-pH} =10^{-3,84}=0,00014 M

So, the [H₃O⁺] concentration is 0,00014 M

Have a nice day!

A heat energy of 645 J is applied to a sample of glass with a mass of 28.4 g. Its temperature increases from –11.6 ∞C to 15.5 ∞C
Anika [276]
The heat that is required to raise the temperature of an object is calculated through the equation,
                        heat = mass x specific heat x (T2 - T1)
Specific heat is therefore calculated through the equation below,
                                specific heat = heat / (mass x (T2 - T1))
Substituting,
                                specific heat = 645 J / ((28.4 g)(15.5 - - 11.6))
The value of specific heat from above equation is 0.838 J/g°C.

A student places four identical cells into four different liquids. Over time which cell will look the smallest WXY or Z
marta [7]

Answer: W

Explanation:

The cell in liquid W will look the smallest out of the four because of Osmosis.

Osmosis is a process by which water molecules move from an area of relatively higher concentration of water to an area with a relatively lower concentration through a selectively permeable membrane(cell membrane).

With W being saltier than the cell, water molecules will move from the cell to liquid W to balance the concentrations inside and outside the cell which will lead to the cell in W being smaller.

Which best describes the motion of pentane molecules in liquid phase?
Ganezh [65]
Hydrocarbons may vary from state to state depending on the length of the carbon chain. For methane to butane, they are usually in gas form. Starting from pentane, they are in the liquid form. For very long carbon chains, that occur as solids. Now, it depends if the pentane is in a nonpolar liquid or polar liquid. Since pentane is nonpolar, it is miscible in the liquid solvent. The movements would most likely be free flowing. But if he solvent is polar, the molecules would repel with one another. In the end, it will form two liquid phases, on for the pentane and one for the polar solvent.

A sample weighing 30.0 grams contains 1.5g of salt/ determine the percent salt found in the sample
jeka57 [31]
<span>Percentage by mass is the amount in mass of a component in a mixture per 100 unit of mass of the total mixture. Percentage by mass is the same as  %w/w. We can determine this by dividing the mass of the solute with the total mass of the mixture. We calculate as follows:

Percent salt = 1.5 g salt / 30.0 g x 100 = 5%  </span>
