Classify as acidic base or neutral [H+]= 6.0*10^-10M
neutral is H+ ion concentration of 10^-7 M
this has far less H+ so is a base
[oh-]=3.0*10^-2M
Can u do this one ?
that has A LOT of OH-, far more than 10^-7 M
.03 is much more than .0000001
a lot of OH- is a base
how many
To classify a solution as acidic, basic, or neutral, we need to determine the concentration of hydrogen ions (H+) in the solution.
In this case, the concentration of H+ is given as [H+] = 6.0 × 10^-10 M.
To classify the solution, we can refer to the pH scale. The pH scale measures the acidity or basicity of a solution on a scale of 0 to 14.
If the pH of a solution is less than 7, the solution is acidic.
If the pH of a solution is greater than 7, the solution is basic.
If the pH of a solution is exactly 7, the solution is neutral.
To calculate the pH from the given concentration of H+, we can use the formula:
pH = -log[H+]
Here, the concentration is 6.0 × 10^-10 M, so the pH can be calculated as:
pH = -log(6.0 × 10^-10) = -(-9.22) = 9.22
Since the calculated pH is greater than 7, the solution is basic.
