    More challenging: What is the pH of a 1.5 x 10-10 HBr solution?


    If you do the calculation to find log (1.5 x 10-10), you get an answer
    of 9.8. However, this is intuitively incorrect after all, how can a
    solution thats made of nothing but pure water (pH = 7) with an acid
    added be basic overall? The answer, it cant. The actual pH of the
    solution is just about 7, with the main acid source being the H+
    formed from the autoionization of water.

    Does your answer from problem #5 make sense? Explain.

    pH Practice Worksheet
    1)

    What is the pH of a solution that contains 25 grams of hydrochloric acid


    (HCl) dissolved in 1.5 liters of water?

    2)

    What is the pH of a solution that contains 1.32 grams of nitric acid (HNO3)
    dissolved in 750 mL of water?

    3)

    What is the pH of a solution that contains 1.2 moles of nitric acid (HNO3)
    and 1.7 moles of hydrochloric acid (HCl) dissolved in 1000 liters of water?

    4)

    If a solution has a [H+] concentration of 4.5 x 10-7 M, is this an acidic or


    basic solution? Explain.

    5)

    An acidic solution has a pH of 4. If I dilute 10 mL of this solution to a final


    volume of 1000 mL, what is the pH of the resulting solution?

    Solutions for the pH practice worksheet:


    The important thing to remember for all of these problems is that pH = -log [H+],
    and that [H+] is equivalent to the molarity of acid present in a solution. When the
    pH is less than 7, the solution is acidic, when the pH = 7 it is neutral, and when it
    is greater than 7, it is basic.
    1)

    In this problem, there are 0.685 moles of HCl dissolved in 1.5 L H2O,
    making a total acid concentration of 0.457 M. To find the answer, take the
    negative log of this to find that the pH = 0.34

    2)

    pH = 1.55

    3)

    pH = 2.53

    4)

    The pH of this solution is 6.35, making the solution very slightly acidic.

    5)

    The pH will be 6. This is solved in the same way that dilution problems
    are solved. If the pH = 4, this means that the concentration of [H+] present
    is 0.0001 M. When you use the dilution equation, M1V1 = M2V2, where V2
    is 1000 mL, you find that the concentration of acid after dilution is 1.00 x
    10-6, which corresponds to a final pH of 6.

    pH and pOH Calculations - Answers


    1)

    Determine the pH of a 0.0034 M HNO3 solution.


    pH = -log[H+] = -log(0.0034) = 2.47

    2)

    Determine the pOH of a 0.0034 M HNO3 solution.

    3)

    pH = -log[H+] = -log(0.0034) = 2.47


    pOH = 14 pH = 14 2.47 = 11.53
    Determine the pH of a 4.3 x 10-4 M NaOH solution.
    pOH = -log[OH-] = -log(4.3 x 10-4) = 3.37
    pH = 14 pOH = 14 3.37 = 10.63

    4)

    If a solution is created by adding water to 2.3 x 10-4 moles of NaOH and


    4.5 x 10-6 moles of HBr until the final volume is 1 L, what is the pH of this
    solution?
    To solve:
    Both acid and base are present. Since they neutralize each other,
    you must first figure out how much acid or base is left over after it
    neutralizes. Since the amount of base is larger than the amount
    of acid, there will be more base than acid. The amount of base is
    2.3 x 10-4 4.5 x 10-6 = 2.26 x 10-4 moles.
    Since there is one L of solution, the molarity of the base is 2.26 x
    10-4 M.
    To find pOH, take the log of 2.26 x 10-4, which is 3.65.
    To find pH, subtract 3.65 from 14. The pH of this solution is 10.35.

    5)

    6)

    Determine the pH of a 4.5 x 10-11 M NaOH solution.


    Although there is some NaOH present in the solution, the pH isnt
    found by taking the log of anything. The reason for this is that the
    concentration of base is much, much smaller than the concentration
    of acid which is naturally found in neutral water. As a result, this
    base doesnt really have any affect on the pH, so the pH of the
    solution is 7.00.
    Why would we say that a solution with a H+ concentration of 1.00 x 10-7 M
    is said to be neutral. If it contains acid, shouldnt it be acidic?
    It isnt acidic because while there is some acid in the solution, there
    is an equal quantity of base. In neutral solutions, the H+ and OHconcentrations are identical, because water breaks up to form them.
    As a result, the solution is neither acidic nor basic.
