pH = 1 / 2 pK w + 1 / 2 log (1 + T A / K a ) With a dilute solution of the weak acid, the term 1 + T A / K a is equal to T A / K a to a good approximation. If pK w = 14, pH = 7 + (pK a + log T A)/2. This equation explains the following facts: The pH at the end-point depends mainly on the strength of the ...
A chemical equation is the symbolic representation of a chemical reaction in the form of symbols and chemical formulas.The reactant entities are given on the left-hand side and the product entities are on the right-hand side with a plus sign between the entities in both the reactants and the products, and an arrow that points towards the products to show the direction of the reaction.

About 112 g of KOH dissolve in 100 mL water at room temperature, which contrasts with 100 g/100 mL for NaOH. [14] Thus on a molar basis, KOH is slightly more soluble than NaOH. Lower molecular-weight alcohols such as methanol, ethanol, and propanols are also excellent solvents. They participate in an acid-base equilibrium.
The ion-permeable ion-exchange membrane at the center of the cell allows only the sodium ions (Na +) to pass to the second chamber where they react with the hydroxide ions to produce caustic soda (NaOH) (B in figure): [1] Na + + OH − → NaOH The overall reaction for the electrolysis of brine is thus: 2NaCl + 2 H 2 O → Cl 2 + H 2 + 2NaOH
The standard Gibbs free energy of formation (G f °) of a compound is the change of Gibbs free energy that accompanies the formation of 1 mole of a substance in its standard state from its constituent elements in their standard states (the most stable form of the element at 1 bar of pressure and the specified temperature, usually 298.15 K or 25 °C).
The catalytic performance of Mo3P nanoparticles is tested in the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), indicating an onset potential of as low as 21 mV, H2 formation rate, and exchange current density of 214.7 μmol/(s·g) cat (at only 100 mV overpotential) and 279.07 μA/cm 2, respectively, which are among the closest values yet observed to platinum.
A single-displacement reaction, also known as single replacement reaction or exchange reaction, is an archaic concept in chemistry.It describes the stoichiometry of some chemical reactions in which one element or ligand is replaced by an atom or group.
In chemistry, an acid–base reaction is a chemical reaction that occurs between an acid and a base.It can be used to determine pH via titration.Several theoretical frameworks provide alternative conceptions of the reaction mechanisms and their application in solving related problems; these are called the acid–base theories, for example, Brønsted–Lowry acid–base theory.
