Explanation / Answer

11. If the concentration of OHin water is 3.5 x 10-8 , what is the pH?

pOH = -log 3.5 x 10-8

pOH = 7.46

pH = 14 - pOH

pH = 6.54

SO correct answer is

C. 6.5

12. If the pH of an aqueous solution is 8.2, what is the concentration of OH- ?

pOH = 14-pH

pOH = 14-8.2

pOH = 5.8

[OH-] = 10-pOH

[OH-] = 10-5.8

[OH-] = 1.58 x 10-6

Right answer is A. 1.58x10-6

13. A solution with a OHconcentration of 9.2x10-10 is ________.

pOH = -log OH

= - log 9.2x10-10

pOH = 9.03

pH = 14-pOH

pH = 4.96 so answer is

C. Acidic

14. What is the predominate species for the H2PO4 - /HPO4 2- buffer at a pH of 8.5? Ka = 6.2x10-8

pKa = -log Ka

pKa = - log 6.2x10-8

pKa = 7.21

pH = pKa + log base/acid

log base/acid > 0 means base is higher concentration

So answer is D. HPO4 2-

15. Acidic solutions will turn a plant pigment molecule (blue litmus) from blue to Red.

D. red

16. The CH3CH2CH2CH2- part in pentanoic acid is a butyl group.

A. butyl 4 carbon alkyl chain
