(a)
Interpretation:
The molecular collision equation of pure water is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
Pure water is not a very good conductor of electricity due to the presence of a very small number of ions that are responsible for the flow of electricity. This happens very rarely that two water molecules collide with the appropriate amount of energy to give back hydronium ion
(b)
Interpretation:
The molar hydrogen ion concentration at

- When sodium fluoride (NaF) is added to an HF solution, what happens to the pH of the solution and why? (A) The pH will not change because NaF is an ionic compound that is neither acid nor base. (B) The pH will decrease because F– absorbs H+ and decreasing the H3O+(aq) concentration. (C) The pH will increase because F– absorbs H+ and decreasing the H3O+(aq) concentration. (D) The pH will not change because NaF is a neutral compound.arrow_forwardThe pOH of an aqueous solution of 0.532 M caffeine (a weak base with the formula C8H10 N4 O₂) is (Assume that -4 Kb (C8H10N4O2) = 4.10 × 10¯4.)arrow_forwardAnswer the following by selecting all correct answers. (a) Dynamic equilibrium O is a condition where two opposing processes are occurring at the same rate. O can only occur in water. O is used to describe what happens when weak acids or weak bases are added to water. O is used to describe what happens when strong acids or strong bases are added to water. (b) What will happen if acetic acid (HC2H3O2) is added to water?arrow_forward
- Use the Referenc The pOH of an aqueous solution of 0.313 M acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin), HC9H¬O4, isarrow_forwardConsider the molecules PH, and PMe,. If these molecules were classified as Lewis bases and were to react with BH,, then: (a) The adduct formed with PH, would have the strongest B–P bond. (b) The adduct formed with PH, would have the longest B-P bond. (c) The adduct formed with PH, would have a double bond between P and B, B=P, because PH, is sterically unhindered. (d) The adduct formed with PMe, would have the strongest B-P bond. (e) The adduct formed with PMe, would have the weakest B-P bond because PMe, is very sterically hindered.arrow_forward(a) A 50.0 mL solution is prepared to be 1.29 M acetylsalicylic acid. In the first step, 8.55 mL of NaOH is titrated into the solution until the pH is exactly 5.0. What is the concentration of the titrant (NaOH)? (b) In the second step, enough 5.85 M nitric acid is added to the solution after the titration in part (a) is complete until the pH is one unit lower than the pKa of acetylsalicylic acid. What volume (mL) of nitric acid was added?arrow_forward
