Question

CH 14 IMI ± pH and Kinetics Bywhat tactor wilthe rate ofthe reaction dange the pH doreases from 5 50 to 200? Express your answer numerically using two significant figures. according to the following net ionic equation View Available Hint(s) io,-(aq) + 3SO_ (aq) (aq) + 3so,,-(aq) Hint 1. How to approach the problem According to the rate law, the reaction rate is directy proportional to the H concentration rate IO, so,H rate [H+] In other words, the rate changes by the same factor as [H H'1 nitial rate inlial H' fnal rate Use pHI to calculate the hydrogen ion then find the ratio. to apen) Hint 3. Determine the final hydrogen ion concentration (lick to open)

Explanation / Answer

Intial pH = 5.50 , pH = - log [H+]

[H+] = 10-pH, So intial [H+] = 10-5.5 = 3.16 x 10-6 M

Final pH = 2.00, [H+] = 10-2.0 = 0.01 M

Final [H+] / Intial [H+] =  0.01 M / 3.16 x 10-6 M

Final [H+] / Intial [H+]  = 3.16 x 103
