Explanation / Answer

2)

we know that

moles = molarity x volume (ml) / 1000

so

moles of HCl0 added = 0.2 x 100 / 1000 = 20 x 10-3

moles of KClO added = 0.3 x 200 / 1000 = 60 x 10-3

now

final volume = 100 + 200 = 300 ml

now

[HCl0] = 20 x 10-3 x 1000 / 300 = 2/30

[KCl0] = 60 x 10-3 x 1000 / 300 = 6/30

we know that

HClO is a weak acid and KClO is salt of its conjugate base

so

they form a buffer solutioon

now

for buffers

pH = pKa + log [KCl0 / HCl0]

also

pKa = -log Ka

so

pH = -log 2.9 x 10-8 + log [ (6/30) / (2/30)]

pH = 7.5376 + log (6/2)

pH = 8.0147

so

the answer is A) 8.01


3)


first consider CuCl

CuCl --> Cu+ + Cl-

the solubility product constant is given by

Ksp = [Cu+] [Cl-]

1 x 10-6 = [Cu+] [ 0.021]

[Cu+]= 4.762 x 10-5 M

now

consider CuI

CuI --> Cu+ + I-

the solubility product constant is given by

Ksp = [Cu+] [I-]

5.1 x 10-12 = [Cu+] [ 0.017]

[Cu+]= 3 x 10-10 M

so

precipitate of CuCl forms when [Cu+] = 4.762 x 10-5 M

precipitate of CuI starts to form when [Cu+] = 3 x 10-10 M

so

CuI is the first one to precipitate

so

the answer is

A) 3 x 10-10 M , CuI
