A 10 mL sample of HCl solution was transferred by pipet to an Erlenmeyer flask and then diluted by adding about 40 mL of distelled water. What is the approximate H3O+ concentration and pH of the solution in the flask before the titration begins?

The approximate H3O+ concentration before the titration begins is 0.1 M

pH of the solution in the flask is 1

Explanation:

Initial concentration of HCl = 0.5 mol/L

Initial number of mols in Erlenmeyer flask = (0.5 mol/L)(0.010 L) = 0.005 mol

After addition of 40 mL of volume to the flask again, the total volume in the flask = 50 mL

Therefore - the resultant [H3O+] concetration in the solution = 0.005 mol / 0.050 L = 0.1 M (before titration begins)

Hence - pH = -log[H3O+] = -log (0.1) = 1

fire could start, buildings collapsing, and ash falling from the sky.

explanation:

this is because the buildings or plants could catch on fire and the buildings would most likely collapse. lastly ash would fall because all the burning would cause ash to fall from the sky.

hope this .

the ozone layer acts as a filter for the shorter wavelength and highly hazardous ultraviolet radiation (uvr) from the sun, protecting life on earth from its potentially harmful effects. when the sky is clear, there is an inverse relationship between stratospheric ozone and solar uvr measured at the earth's surface.
