NEET2008ChemistryIonic EquilibriumActual
Equal volumes of three acid solutions of pH 3,4 and 5 are mixed in a vessel. What will be the H ⁺ ion concentration in the mixture?
Options
- A1.11 10⁻³ M
- B1.11 10⁻⁴ M
- C3.7 10⁻⁴ M
- D3.7 10⁻³ M
Correct answer
C. 3.7 10⁻⁴ M
Step-by-step solution
N ₁ ~V ₁+ N ₂ ~V ₂+ N ₃ ~V ₃= N _ m V _ m or 10⁻³ 1+10⁻⁴ 1+10⁻⁵ 1= N _ m 3 or 1.11 10⁻³= N _ m 3 or N _ m =0.37 10⁻³ [ H ⁺ ]=3.7 10⁻⁴ M
