Explanation / Answer

(B)Ba(OH)2 -------> Ba2+ + 2OH-

[OH-] = 2 x 0.10 = 0.20M

We know that,

pH = - Log[H+]

(or) pH = 14 + Log[OH-]

pH = 14 + log (0.20)

pH = 14 - 0.70

pH = 13.30

(C) NaOH ------> Na+ + OH-

[OH-] = 0.10M

pH = 14 + Log(0.10)

pH = 14 - 1

pH = 13.00

(D) [OH-] = (Kb x C)1/2

[OH-] = (1.3 x 10-6 x 0.10)1/2

[OH-] = 0.36 x 10 -3 M

therefore, pH = 14 + Log(0.36x10-3)

pH = 10.56

(E) [H+] = (Ka xC )1/2

[H+] = (3.5 x 10-8 X 0.10)1/2

[H+] = 0.59 x 10-4 M

pH = - Log (0.59 x 10-4)

pH = 4.23 M

(F) pH = - Log[H+]

pH = - Log (0.10)

pH = 1.00
