If the pOH of the solution is 6.0, the pH is 14 - 6 = 8.0.
That one is correct. :) Hope that helps.

Answer : Option D) The pH of the solution is 8.0.

Explanation : pOH of a solution is a measure of hydroxide ion $(OH^{-})$ concentration in a particular solution. It gives the measure of alkalinity of a solution. Normally, aqueous solutions at 25°C have pOH which is less than 7 are usually alkaline, when pOH is found to be greater than 7 then they are acidic and when pOH will be equal to 7 then it is neutral.

pH + pOH = 14, this relationship is used to find pH of any unknown solution with given pOH value,

Here, we known pOH is 6.0, so we get,

pH = 14 - 6 = 8.0;

Hence, the pH will be 8.0.

Carbon dioxide dissolves in water to form carbonic acid, which is primarily dissolved CO2. Dissolved CO2 satisfies the equilibri

lorasvet [3.4K]

Explanation:

The reaction equation will be as follows.

$CO_{2}(aq) + H_{2}O \rightleftharpoons H^{+}(aq) + HCO^{-}_{3}(aq)$

Calculate the amount of $CO_{2}$ dissolved as follows.

$CO_{2}(aq) = K_{CO_{2}} \times P_{CO_{2}}$

It is given that $K_{CO_{2}}$ = 0.032 M/atm and $P_{CO_{2}}$ = $1.9 \times 10^{-4}$ atm.

Hence, $[CO_{2}]$ will be calculated as follows.

$[CO_{2}]$ = $K_{CO_{2}} \times P_{CO_{2}}$

= $0.032 M/atm \times 1.9 \times 10^{-4}atm$

= $0.0608 \times 10^{-4}$

or, = $0.608 \times 10^{-5}$

It is given that $K_{a} = 4.46 \times 10^{-7}$

As, $K_{a} = \frac{[H^{+}]^{2}}{[CO_{2}]}$

$4.46 \times 10^{-7} = \frac{[H^{+}]^{2}}{0.608 \times 10^{-5}}$

$[H^{+}]^{2}$ = $2.71 \times 10^{-12}$

$[H^{+}]$ = $1.64 \times 10^{-6}$

Since, we know that pH = $-log [H^{+}]$

So, pH = $-log (1.64 \times 10^{-6})$

= 5.7

Therefore, we can conclude that pH of water in equilibrium with the atmosphere is 5.7.

I believe that it is all of the above.

"A Scientific Hypothesis Must Be "Falsifiable". A scientific hypothesis must be testable, but there is a much stronger requirement that a testable hypothesis must meet before it can really be considered scientific."

I hope this helped, have a nice day!
