∙ 14y agoA Ka value of 1.25 x 10-4 indicates a weak acid. This means that the indicator would be most effective at detecting solutions with a pH close to the pKa value of the indicator, which is approximately 3.9. Therefore, the indicator could be used to determine if a solution has a pH above or below 3.9.
A solution with a concentration above the equilibrium solubility is called supersaturated. This means that the solution contains more solute than it should be able to hold at that given temperature.
NaOH is a base so it will produce a pH above 7.
The pH of the solution can be calculated using the formula pH = -log[H3O+]. Therefore, pH = -log(2 x 10^-14) ≈ 13.7. This means the solution is basic since the pH is above 7.
pH above 7 = a base or alkaline solutionpH below 7 = acid or acidic solution
When referring to acidity of a solution one uses the pH scale. The lower the number, the higher the acidity. Pure water is said to be neutral, and is a 7 on the scale. Anything with a lower number ranking is acidic, and anything with a higher ranking is basic.
pH is used as an indicator of whether a solution is acidic or basic. A pH value below 7 indicates acidity, while a pH above 7 indicates alkalinity (basicity).
An acid-base indicator measures the pH of a solution by changing color in response to the hydrogen ion concentration. It can indicate whether a solution is acidic, basic, or neutral based on the color change.
Phenolphthalein is the PH indicator used to detect the acidity of the solution. When the solution is acidic or near-neutral (PH<8.2), it's colorless; when the solution is basic (8.2<PH<10.0),it will turn from colorless to pink, and gradually turns fuchsia when PH reaches 12.0, back to colorless when overpasses 12.0.
By calculating the concentration of hydronium ions and hydroxide ions in the solution and comparing them to the equilibrium constant for water (Kw = 1.0 x 10^-14 at 25°C), you can determine the pH value of the solution. If [H3O+] > [OH-], the solution is acidic; if [OH-] > [H3O+], the solution is basic; and if [H3O+] = [OH-], the solution is neutral.
To determine if an unknown solution is acidic or basic, you can use an indicator such as litmus paper. Dip the paper into the solution, and observe any color change. If the paper turns red, the solution is acidic, if it turns blue or purple, the solution is basic. The pH scale is used to quantify the acidity or basicity of a solution, with values below 7 indicating acidity, and values above 7 indicating basicity.
That is an algebraic equation. If you are asking what the solution is for the above equation, it would be:d = 7
Baking soda pH about 8.0 so methyl orange is yellow (above 4.4)
The pH value of a solution indicates whether it is acidic or basic. A pH below 7 indicates acidity, while a pH above 7 indicates alkalinity (basicity).
Universal indicators are useful to scientists because they can quickly determine the pH of a solution by observing a color change. This helps in identifying whether a solution is acidic, neutral, or basic without the need for a pH meter. They can be especially helpful in qualitative analysis and in quick assessment of the acidity or alkalinity of a solution.
To test for an acid, you can use pH paper or a pH meter to measure the pH level of a solution. Acids will typically have a pH below 7. To test for an alkali, you can use universal indicator paper which will change color depending on the pH of the solution. Alkalis typically have a pH above 7.
None of the Above
The solution is above strength in solute.
