Aqueous solutions of one of the following salts is basic. Which one? Please explain how you determine it?
a. NH4F
b. NH4OCN
c. NH4OBr
d. NH4CH3COO
e. NH4NO2
The correct options
d. NH4CH3COO
As we all know NH4+ is a weakly acidic having Ka 5.68 * 10 ^-10
so any acid having Kb > Ka of NH4+ will make the salt basic
and CH3COOH is a weak acid so its conjugate base is more basic having Kb = 1.7 * 10 ^-6
So d. NH4CH3COO is the correct answer
Aqueous solutions of one of the following salts is basic. Which one? Please explain how you...
15. Which one of the following salts produces basic solutions when it is dissolved in water? (a) NaNO3 (b) NH4OCl (c) NH4Br (d) NHI (e) KCI
Determine whether dilute aqueous solutions of the following salts will be acidic, basic or neutral: KBr, Bal2, KCN, AICI3.
1. Which one of the following salts forms aqueous solutions with pH = 7? (Circle the correct answer) a) FeCl3 b) KBr c) LiClO2 d) NH4NO3 e) Na2CO3 2. Calculate the pH of a 0.150M solution of sodium acetate (NaC2H302) at 25°C. (Ka for acetic acid HC2H302 is 1.8 x 10-5)
Which of the following salts gives a basic aqueous solution? a) KBr b) NaCN c) NH4ClO4 d) CuCl2 e) NaNO3
Please explain 3. Which one of the following salt solutions is the most basic? (a) 0.05 M Nacio (b) 0.05 M NaC102 (c) 0.1 M NaClO (d) 0.1 M NaClO2 (e) 0.1 M NaC104
For each of the following salts, indicate whether the aqueous solution will be acidic, basic, or neutral. please answer ASAP For each of the following salts, indicate whether the aqueous solution will be acidic, basic, or neutral. a. K,CO O acidic basic O neutral b. Kgs O acidic basic O neutral c. K2SiO, acidic O basic neutral d. Na PO, acidic basic neutral
Part A:Part B: Predict whether aqueous solutions of the following compounds will be acidic, basic or neutral. If the solution would be acidic or basic, circle the ion that causes the pH to change. a) NH Brb ) FeCl, c) K,CO, d) KCIO e) NaBr f) MgCl, g) NaF h) LiNO Two unknown acid solutions are both labelled 0.50 M. How could you determine which is the strong acid and which is the weak acid? Explain.
xc. Predict semi-quantitatively whether the following solutions are acidic, basic, or nearly neutral. (a) NH4NO2 (b) NH4F (c) NH4CN (d) NaHCO (e) K2HPO4 (f) (NHA)2SO The first part is solved below. Use similar reasoning to make predictions for the other solutions (a) Ka for NH,-5.6x 1010 and Ko for NO is 2.2x 10. Since the Ka is about 25 times larger than Kb, the solution should be acidic.
Will 0.10 M aqueous solutions of the following salts be acidic , basic or neutral? (Assume a solution is neutral if its pH is 7.00±0.05). Equilibrium constants may be found in an appendix to your text. acidic basic neutral: sodium sulfate (Na2SO4) acidic basic neutral: sodium hydrogen arsenate (Na2HAsO4) acidic basic neutral: ammonium sulfite ((NH4)2SO3) acidic basic neutral: sodium chloride (NaCl) acidic basic neutral: ammonium chloride (NH4Cl)
