Study Notes
Calculating Hydroxide Ion Concentration
- The question asks for the concentration of hydroxide ions ($OH^-$) in a solution with a pH of 13.
- The pH scale measures the acidity or alkalinity of a solution.
- A pH of 13 indicates a highly alkaline solution.
- The concentration of hydroxide ions is calculated using the formula: $pOH = -log[OH^-]$
- Since pH + pOH = 14, the pOH of this solution is 1.
- The concentration of hydroxide ions is calculated as 10^{-1} = 0.1 moles/liter.
Moseley's Law
- Moseley's law states that the atomic number of an element is equal to the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom.
- The periodic table is organized by atomic number, which determines the chemical properties of an element.
Determining Oxidation State
- The question involves the electrolysis of a molten metal salt.
- The amount of metal deposited is directly proportional to the amount of electricity passed through the solution.
- The oxidation state of the metal is determined by the number of electrons transferred during the electrolysis process.
- The calculation involves Faraday's law of electrolysis and the formula: $Q = nFt$
- Q is the amount of electricity passed, n is the number of moles of electrons transferred, F is Faraday's constant, and t is the time.
- The number of moles of metal deposited is calculated by dividing the mass of metal by the atomic weight.
- By comparing the number of moles of metal deposited to the number of moles of electrons transferred, the oxidation state of the metal can be determined.
