Acid Base Problems SAT Chemistry 1. What is the pH of a 0.100 M solution of ammonia (Kb=1.8 * 10-5)?

2. What is the pH of a 0.010 M HCl solution?

3. Suppose you have a alkaline buffer consisting of 0.20 M aqueous ammonia (NH3) and 0.10 M ammonium chloride (NH4Cl). What is the pH of the solution?

4. What is the hydronium ion concentration and pH of a 0.10 M solution of hypochlorous acid, Ka = 3.5 x 10-8?

5. What is the pH of a 0.010 M NaOH solution? (Strong acids and bases have no K values because there is no equilibrium, they ionize completely in forward reaction.)

6. What is the hydroxide ion concentration and pH of a 0.10 M solution of NH3, Kb = 1.8 x 10-5?

7. Suppose one had a 0.10 M solution of NH4Cl. What would be the pH of this solution? (Remember, which ions are important and will affect pH? Concept: spectator ions and hydrolysis of salts)
