Acid and Base Strength and Concentration

Chemistry ⇒ Acids, Bases, and Salts

Acid and Base Strength and Concentration starts at 9 and continues till grade 12. QuestionsToday has an evolving set of questions to continuously challenge students so that their knowledge grows in Acid and Base Strength and Concentration. How you perform is determined by your score and the time you take. When you play a quiz, your answers are evaluated in concept instead of actual words and definitions used.
See sample questions for grade 9
Context: A 0.01 M solution of NaOH and a 0.01 M solution of NH3 are prepared. Which solution will have a higher pH?
Context: A student adds the same amount of HCl and CH3COOH to equal volumes of water. Which solution will have a lower pH?
Context: A student has two solutions: Solution A is 0.1 M HCl, and Solution B is 0.1 M CH3COOH. Which solution has a higher pH?
Context: Two solutions have the same concentration, but one is a strong acid and the other is a weak acid. Which will have a higher electrical conductivity?
Define the term 'acid strength'.
Describe how you would prepare a dilute solution from a concentrated acid.
Describe the relationship between the strength of an acid and its electrical conductivity.
Describe what happens to the pH of a solution as the concentration of a strong acid increases.
Explain the difference between 'concentrated' and 'strong' when describing acids.
Explain why a concentrated solution of a weak acid may still have a higher pH than a dilute solution of a strong acid.
Explain why a dilute solution of a strong acid can still conduct electricity well.
What is the main difference between a strong acid and a weak acid?
Context: A student prepares two solutions: Solution A is 1 M HNO3 (a strong acid), and Solution B is 2 M CH3COOH (a weak acid). Which solution is expected to have a lower pH, and why?
Context: Two solutions, X and Y, both have a concentration of 0.5 M. Solution X is a strong base, while solution Y is a weak base. If equal volumes of each are added to separate samples of the same acidic solution, which solution will raise the pH more?
Describe how the pH of a solution changes if you dilute a strong acid by adding more water. Explain your answer.
Explain why a 0.01 M solution of a strong base can have a higher pH than a 1 M solution of a weak base.
