Select the pH value you would expect for each of these solutions.

an aqueous solution of HNO3

an aqueous solution of NaCl

an aqueous solution of NaOH


Sagot :

Answer:

an aqueous solution of HNO3

✔ pH = 2.5

an aqueous solution of NaCl

✔ pH = 7

an aqueous solution of NaOH

✔ pH = 13

Explanation:

The answer is that the  pH will be <7 , =7 , >7 for the respective solutions.

What is pH ?

pH is an expression of hydrogen ion concentration in water.

pH is the negative logarithm of hydrogen ion (H+) concentration (mol/L) in an aqueous solution:

pH = -log₁₀(H+)

The term is used to indicate basicity or acidity of a solution on a scale of 0 to 14, with pH 7 being neutral.

As the concentration of H⁺ ions in solution increases, acidity increases and pH gets lower, below 7

When pH is above 7, the solution is basic.

For the above solutions mentioned

1. An aqueous solution of HNO3

This will be an acidic solution so

pH < 7

2. An aqueous solution of NaCl

As NaCl is a salt therefore , it will be a neutral solution

pH=7

3. An aqueous solution of NaOH

This will be an alkaline solution

pH>7

Therefore the  pH will be <7 , =7 , >7 for the respective solutions.
