Which of the following statements about the pH of 0.010 M HClO4 is correct? pH=2.00, because [H+]=1.0×10−2M.

A: p H equals 2.00 , because the molar concentration of H with a positive 1 charge equals 1.0 times 10 to the negative 2 power molar .

pH=2.00, because [H+]=2.0×10−2M.

B: p H equals 2.00 , because the molar concentration of H with a positive 1 charge equals 1.0 times 10 to the negative 2 power molar .

pH>2.00, because HClO4 is a strong acid.

C: p H is greater than 2.00 , because H C l O 4 is a strong acid.

pH<2.00, because HClO4 is a weak acid.

Option B: p H equals 2.00 , because the molar concentration of H with a positive 1 charge equals 1.0 times 10 to the negative 2 power molar .

pH = 2 because [H⁺] = 1×10¯² M

Explanation:

To know which option is correct, we shall determine the pH of the 0.010 M HClO₄ solution. This can be obtained as follow:

We'll begin by calculating the concentration of the hydrogen ion [H⁺] in the solution. This is illustrated below:

HClO₄ is a strong acid and will dessociates as follow:

HClO₄ (aq) —> H⁺ (aq) + ClO₄¯ (aq)

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of HClO₄ produced 1 mole H⁺.

Therefore, 0.010 M HClO₄ will also produce 0.010 M H⁺.

Finally we shall determine the pH of the solution. This can be obtained as follow:

Concentration of the hydrogen ion [H⁺] = 0.010 = 1×10¯² M

pH =?

pH = –Log [H⁺]

pH = –Log 1×10¯²

pH = 2

Thus,

The pH = 2

because,

[H⁺] = 1×10¯² M

Thus, option B gives the correct answer to the question.

explanation:

the largest database of organic compounds lists about 10 million substances, which include compounds originating from living organisms and those synthesized by chemists. the number of potential organic compounds has been estimated at 1060—an astronomically high number. the existence of so many organic molecules is a consequence of the ability of carbon atoms to form up to four strong bonds to other carbon atoms, resulting in chains and rings of many different sizes, shapes, and complexities. the simplest organic compounds contain only the elements carbon and hydrogen, and are called hydrocarbons. even though they are composed of only two types of atoms, there is a wide variety of hydrocarbons because they may consist of varying lengths of chains, branched chains, and rings of carbon atoms, or combinations of these structures. in addition, hydrocarbons may differ in the types of carbon-carbon bonds present in their molecules. many hydrocarbons are found in plants, animals, and their fossils; other hydrocarbons have been prepared in the laboratory. we use hydrocarbons every day, mainly as fuels, such as natural gas, acetylene, propane, butane, and the principal components of gasoline, diesel fuel, and heating oil. the familiar plastics polyethylene, polypropylene, and polystyrene are also hydrocarbons. we can distinguish several types of hydrocarbons by differences in the bonding between carbon atoms. this leads to differences in geometries and in the hybridization of the carbon orbitals.
