Question

Arrange the following resultant mixtures in increasing order of their pH values

A. 10 mL 0.2 M Ca(OH)₂ + 25 mL 0.1 M HCl
B. 10 mL 0.01 M H₂SO₄ + 10 mL 0.01 M Ca(OH)₂
C. 10 mL 0.1 M H₂SO₄ + 10 mL 0.1 M KOH

Choose the correct answer from the options given below :

Options

A.B < C < A
B.C < A < B
C.C < B < A
D.A < C < B

Solution

Sol.

an final solution, [OH⁻] = 1.5 mmol/35 ml = 1.5/35

pOH = −log(1.5/35)

pH = 14 + log(1.5/35)

(B) H⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq) → H₂O(ℓ)

t = 0 0.2 mmol 0.2 mmol

final pH = 7

(C) H⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq) → H₂O(ℓ)

t = 0 2 mmol 1 mmol

t = ∞ 1 mmol 0

Final pH < 7

So, order of pH values :

(C) < (B) < (A)
