This question is about acids and bases.
Give the chemical formula of the ion that is responsible for making an aqueous solution acidic.
A student performs a titration using sodium hydroxide solution and dilute sulfuric acid.
The chemical equation for this neutralisation reaction is: 2NaOH(aq)+H2SO4(aq)→Na2SO4(aq)+2H2O(l)2\text{NaOH}(\text{aq}) + \text{H}_2\text{SO}_4(\text{aq}) \rightarrow \text{Na}_2\text{SO}_4(\text{aq}) + 2\text{H}_2\text{O}(\text{l})2NaOH(aq)+H2SO4(aq)→Na2SO4(aq)+2H2O(l)
During the titration, 20.0 cm320.0\text{ cm}^320.0 cm3 of 0.150 mol/dm30.150\text{ mol/dm}^30.150 mol/dm3 sodium hydroxide solution is completely neutralised by 18.5 cm318.5\text{ cm}^318.5 cm3 of sulfuric acid.
Calculate the concentration of the sulfuric acid in mol/dm3\text{mol/dm}^3mol/dm3. Give your final answer to 3 significant figures.
To find this, you should calculate:
An aqueous solution of nitric acid with pH 3.8\text{pH } 3.8pH 3.8 has a hydrogen ion concentration of 1.58×10−4 mol/dm31.58 \times 10^{-4}\text{ mol/dm}^31.58×10−4 mol/dm3.
What is the concentration of H+\text{H}^+H+ ions in a solution of nitric acid with pH 1.8\text{pH } 1.8pH 1.8?
