Re: All Chemistry help here!! Stuck somewhere? Ask here!

A 20.0mL sample of 0.200M HBr solution is titrated with 0.200M NaOH solution. Calculate the pH of the
solution after the following volumes of base have been added:
15 mL
ANYBODY ????

I am going to give it a try.

Moles HBr = 0.020 L x 0.200 M =0.0040
Moles NaOH = 0.015 L x 0.200 =0.0030

Moles H+ in excess = 0.0010
Total volume = 0.015 L
Concentration H+ = 0.0010 / 0.015 =0.0667
pH =-log ( 0.06667)
=0.176

Nov 2007 paper4 question 3, CIE

since Cl2 is more +ve, isnt it suppose to undergo reduction? why is the equation the other way round from what i did :)

Re: All Chemistry help here!! Stuck somewhere? Ask here!

yeah, chlorine should gain electrons since it's E* value is more positive.
lets see what xpf member says

I'm not sure about this question, but according to what I understand, dichromate is an oxidising agent! So it'll oxidise the CL- ion?! :unknown: does that make sense?

Every reaction can proceed in heither direction!!but the probability of each of them is different!! so it can either undergo reduction or oxidation( specific conditions!)

Re: All Chemistry help here!! Stuck somewhere? Ask here!

These sites might help ... check em

1.Beta-Theta.com Chemistry Section
http://adf.ly/378ET
Notes on a number of topics relevant to AS/A Level Chemistry are included. The notes include a particularly good interactive Periodic Table. There is also access to Homework Help and to a Midnight Café chat-room.

2.http://adf.ly/l8tn
This is a US site intended for first year undergraduates, but much is relevant to AS/A Level Chemistry. Notes, articles and tutorial are included. A number of experiment simulations can be accessed. The compound library is very good.

3.http://adf.ly/l8to
A lighthearted look at many aspects of Chemistry. There are a lot of links to useful pages written by teachers and students. Not all of this is relevant to AS/A Level, but much is. A wealth of information and a lot of fun.

4.Chemsoc Interactive Periodic Table
http://adf.ly/l8tp
A high quality interactive Periodic Table with photographs and information about each element.
