A chemist wishes to manually calculate a derivative; the change in pH divided by the change in volume (∆pH/∆vol). The uncertainty in the pH measurements (epH) is 0.01 pH units. The uncertainty in the volume measurements(evol) is 0.03 mL. What is the expected uncertainty of the result if the chemist tries to make a measurement with a pH change of 0.30 and a volume change of 0.15 mL?

The pH reading of a glass of liquid is given. Find the hydrogen ion concentration of the liquid. (Give your answers in scientific notation, correct to one decimal place.) (a) Beer: pH = 5.3 [H+] = х 10 M (b) Water: pH = 7.2 [H*] = x 10 M
The following two reactions involve proton transfer. In each reaction, identify the acid and the base. Identify the conjugate base of the acid, and the conjugate acid of the base. Draw Lewis electron dot diagrams for each molecule, and describe the rear- rangement of bonding in the reaction as nonbonding electron pairs become cova- lently shared pairs and vice versa.

Suppose a group of students put 2.92 grams of an unknown solid acid into a 250-mL volumetric flask and filled it up to the mark with deionized water. After this they pipetted out 15.75 mL of a 1.78 M NaOH(aq) solution into another 250-mL volumetric flask and filled it up to the mark with deionized water. The students were given a pH meter that was already calibrated by their teaching assistant (T.A.) and they got the following result shown in the table below. Calculate the Molarity of the unknown solid acid. Hint: You can approximate the endpoint of the titration by taking the average volume between two consecutive titrant volume reading and you can assume that it is a 1:1 stoichiometry ratio between the acid and OH-(aq).

What is the pH of a 0.10 M N(CH3)3(aq)? The base ionization constant of trimethylamine is Kb= 6.5×10–5. Enter your answer with correct units and significant figures.
pH = −log[H+] where [H+] is the hydrogen ion concentration, measured in moles per liter. Solutions with a pH-value of less than 7 are acidic; solutions with a pH-value of greater than 7 are basic; solutions with a pH-value of 7 (such as pure water) are neutral. Black coffee has a pH of 5 and pure water has a pH of 7. Compare the pH of each and determine how much more acidic black coffee is than pure water.
