What is the hydrogen ion concentration, [H+], of a solution with a pH of 5.43?

3.7 x10−6 Mole per dm^3

Explanation:

pH is the negative logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration in a solution.

So, pH = - log(H+)

Since the solution has a pH of 5.43

5.43 = -log(H+)

To get hydrogen ion concentration, find the Antilog of 5.43

(H+) = Antilog (-5.43)

(H+) = 0.000003715

Then, 0.000003715 in standard form becomes 3.7 x10−6 M

Thus, the concentration of hydrogen ion in the solution is 3.7 x10−6 Mole per dm^3

as given the equation is

2al + 6 hcl > 2 alcl3 + 3 h2(g)

as per equation two moles of aluminum reacts with six moles of hcl to give two moles of alcl3 and three moles of hydrogen gas

given: three moles of al are present and 7 moles of hcl

for three moles of aluminum nine moles of hcl will be required

however as 7 moles of hcl are present so the limiting reagent is hcl

hcl is going to decide the number of moles of product formed

when six moles of hcl are present = 3 moles of h2 are formed

when one mole of hcl is present == 3/6 mole sof h2 will be formed

when 7 moles of hcl are present = 3 x 7/ 6 moles of h2 will be formed = 3.5 moles of h2
