PH Worksheet Key

1. pH is a measure of the concentration of H+ ions in solution. The equation for pH is pH = -log[H+]. The relationship between pH and pOH is pH + pOH = 14. 2. The worksheet provides examples of calculating the pH and pOH of various solutions given the concentrations of H+ or OH- ions. It also lists strong acids like HClO4, H2SO4, and HNO3 that dissociate completely in water and weak acids like HC2H3O2, H3PO4, and HNO2 that dissociate only partially. 3. Examples are given of calculating the pH and pOH of solutions involving acids like

pH Worksheet Key

1. What is pH a measure of? The concentration of H+ in solution

2. What is the equation used for finding pH? pH = -log [H+]

3. What is the equation that relates to pH and pOH? pH + pOH =14

4. Complete the following table

[H3O+] [OH-] pH pOH Acidic/Basic?


1.0 x 10-9 M 1 x 10-5 9 5 Basic
2.4 x 10-13 M 4.1x10-2 M 12.6 1.4 Basic
1.78 x 10-4 M 5.62 x 10-11 M 3.75 10.25 Acidic
2.82 x 10-9 M 3.55 x 10-6 M 8.55 5.45 Basic

5. What would be the pH of each of the following:

a) 0.0010 M HCl 3 g) 0.024 M HCl 1.6


b) 0.0010 M HNO3 3 h) 0.075 M KOH 12.9
c) 0.010 M NaOH 12 i) 0.000034 M HCl 4.5
d) 0.0035 M HCl 2.46 j) 0.000000000001M HCl 12
e) 1.0 M HBr 0
f) 1.0 M KOH 14
6. A 2.63 g NaOH are dissolved in 156 mL of solution. Determine the NaOH concentration
& the pH.

2.63 g NaOH x 1 mol NaOH =0.0658 mol NaOH 156 mL x 1 L =


40.0 g NaOH 1000 ML

[NaOH]= 0.0658 mol NaOH/0.156 L = 0.42 M

pH =-log [0.42 M] = 0.37

7. List 3 strong acids and explain why these acids are considered strong acids.

HClO4, H2SO4, HNO3 They are strong since they dissociate 100% in water giving
the maximum amount of H+ ion from the compound
8. List 3 weak acids and explain why these acids are considered weak acids.

HC2H3O2, H3PO4, HNO2 They are weak since they dissociate much less than 100%
in water so there is a large portion of the original acid present
9. What is the pH and pOH of a 1.2 x 10-3 HBr solution?
pH: 2.9 pOH: 11.1

10. What is the pH and pOH of a 2.34 x 10-5 NaOH solution?


pOH: 4.6 pH: 9.4

11. What is the pH and pOH of a solution made by adding water to 15 grams of
hydroiodic acid until the volume of the solution is 2500 mL?
pH: 1.6 pOH: 12.4

12. What is the pH and pOH of a solution that was made by adding 400 mL of water
to 350 mL of 5.0 x 10-3 M NaOH solution?
pOH: 2.7 pH: 11.3

13. What is the pH and pOH of a solution with a volume of 5.4 L that contains 15
grams of hydrochloric acid and 25 grams of nitric acid?
pH: 0.82 pOH: 13.18

14. A swimming pool has a volume of one million liters. How many grams of HCl
would need to be added to that swimming pool to bring the pH down from 7 to 4?
(Assume the volume of the HCl is negligible)
3545 grams (100. moles)
