plz give me some Q on Ph value for viva
Answers
Answer:
but where is the figure........mmm
Answer:
1. Define pH.
Ans. It is defined as the negative logarithm of hydronium ion concentration in moles per litre.
pH = – log [H3O+].
2. What do you mean by pOH ?
Ans. It is negative logarithm of OH– ion concentration.
pOH = – log [OH–] = 14—pH.
3. What is pH of pure water at 25°C ?
Ans. 7.
4.What does pH of a solution signify ?
Ans. It signifies the H3O+ ion concentration in moles per litre.
5. What is pH of a solution if it is acidic ?
Ans. pH of an acidic solution is less than 7.
6. Write self ionisation of water. What is the value of ionic product of water at 298 K ?
Ans.
experiments-based-ph-change-13
The value of ionic product of water at 298 K
= 1.0 x 10-14 mol2 L-2
7. What is ionic product of water ?
Ans. Kw = [H3O+][OH–].
8. Is pH of pure water affected by rise in temperature ?
Ans. The pH value slightly decreases with the rise in temperature. This is due to increase in degree of dissociation of water with rise in temperature which in turn results in increase in the concentration of hydronium ions.
9. Is the value of ionic product of water affected by addition of acid or base ?
Ans. No, if a little of acid is added its H3O+ ion concentration increases and correspondingly OH- ion concentration decreases. Thus ionic product of water remains same.
10. What happens to the pH of the solution if a little acid is added to water ?
Ans. When a little acid is added then concentration of H3O+ ions in the solution increases. Thus, pH of the solution decreases.
11. 10 ml. lemon juice is diluted with an equal volume of water. What effect is likely to be observed on the pH of the solution?
Ans. The pH of the solution (diluted lemon juice) would be more than that of pure lemon juice.
12. Out of lemon juice and apple juice which one would have lower pH ?
Ans. Lemon juice would have lower pH as it is more acidic.
13. If any two acidic solutions are mixed what would happen to the pH of the mixture ?
Ans. pH of the mixture would lie in between the pH values of the two solutions.
14. What is the effect of dilution on pH of (i) an acidic solution (ii) a basic solution.
Ans. (i) pH of an acidic solution increases on dilution (ii) pH of a basic solution decrease on dilution.
15. Will the pH of 0.1 M acetic acid be the same as that of 0.1 M hydrochloric acid ?
Ans. pH of 0.1 M acetic acid would be more than pH of 0.1 M HCl because acetic acid, being a weak acid, is only partially ionised and hence produces lower cone, of H3O+ (aq).
