Question 1

Which of the following best describes the common-ion effect?

Accepted Answer

The decrease in ionization of a weak acid or base when a strong electrolyte containing a common ion is added.

Question 2

Accepted Answer

The pH will decrease slightly.

Question 3

Accepted Answer

$$\mathrm{pH = 3.86 + \log \left( \frac{0.10}{0.12} \right) = 3.80}$$

Question 6

Which of the following statements about buffer capacity is correct?

Accepted Answer

Buffer capacity increases as the total concentration of buffer components increases.

Question 7

A buffer is prepared by mixing 0.30 mol of acetic acid and 0.30 mol of sodium acetate in 1.00 L of water. If 0.020 mol of NaOH is added, what is the new pH? ($$\mathrm{pK_a = 4.74})$$

Accepted Answer

$$\mathrm{pH = 4.74 + \log \left( \frac{0.32}{0.28} \right) = 4.80}$$

Question 8

Which of the following best explains why the pH at the equivalence point of a weak acid-strong base titration is greater than 7?

Accepted Answer

The conjugate base of the weak acid hydrolyzes to produce OH$$^-$$ ions.

Question 9

Which of the following salts will be more soluble in acidic solution than in basic solution?

Accepted Answer

$$\mathrm{$$CaCO_3$$}$$

Question 10

Accepted Answer

$$K_{sp} = [Ba$$^{2+}$$]^3 [PO_4$^{3-}]^2$$

Question 11

A solution contains 0.01 M $$\mathrm{$$AgNO_3$$}$$ and 0.20 M $$\mathrm{NH_3$}. $$Given $$K_f$$ for $$\mathrm{Ag(NH_3$)_2^+} is$$ $$1.7 	imes 10^7$, what happens to the concentration of free $$\mathrm{Ag^+}$$ compared to a solution without $$\mathrm{$$NH_3$$}$$?

Accepted Answer

It decreases significantly.

Question 12

Which of the following is true regarding the precipitation of an ionic compound from solution?

Accepted Answer

pH = pK_a

Question 15

Which of the following best describes selective precipitation?

Accepted Answer

Separating ions based on their different solubilities in the presence of a common ion.

Question 16

Which of the following is NOT a way to make a buffer?

Accepted Answer

Mixing a strong acid and a strong base.

Question 17

If $$K_{sp}$$ for $$\mathrm{$$CaF_2$$} is$$ $$3.9 	imes 10$$^{-11}$$, what is the molar solubility of $$\mathrm{$$CaF_2$$}$$ in pure water?

Accepted Answer

$$\sqrt[3]{3.9 	imes 10$$^{-11}$$/4}$$

Question 18

Which of the following best explains why $$\mathrm{Ni(OH)_2} is $$more soluble in acidic solution than in basic solution?

Accepted Answer

Acid reacts with $$\mathrm{OH^-}$$, shifting equilibrium to dissolve more $$\mathrm{Ni(OH)_2}.$$

Question 19
