Answer:

See explanation below

Explanation:

There are several ways to know if an acid or base is strong. One method is calculating the pH. If the pH is really low, is a strong acid, and if it's really high is a strong base.

However we do not have a pH value here.

The other method is using bronsted - lowry theory. If an acid is strong, then his conjugate base is weak. Same thing with the bases.

Now, Looking at the 4 compounds, we can say that only two of them is weak and the other two are strong compounds. Let's see:

LiOH ---> Strong. If you try to dissociate :

LiOH ------> Li⁺ + OH⁻     The Li⁺ is a weak conjugate acid.

HF -----> Weak

HF --------> H⁺ + F⁻   The Fluorine is a relatively strong conjugate base.

HCl -----> Strong

This is actually one of the strongest acid.

NH₃ ------> Weak

Now writting the Ka and Kb expressions:

Ka = [H⁺] [F⁻] / [HF]

Kb = [NH₄⁺] [OH⁻] / [NH₃]

Finally, to calculate the [OH⁻] we need to use the following expression:

Kw = [H⁻] [OH⁻]

Solving for [OH⁻] we have:

[OH⁻] = Kw / [H⁺]

Remember that the value of Kw is 1x10⁻¹⁴. So replacing:

[OH⁻] = 1x10⁻¹⁴ / 7x10⁻⁶

[OH⁻] = 1.43x10⁻⁹ M

And now, multiplying by 10¹⁰ we have:

[OH⁻] = 1.429x10⁻⁹ * 1x10¹⁰

[OH⁻] = 14.29

Hope this helps

Strong acids and bases are those which completely ionized in body fluid, and weak acids and bases are those who does not completely ionized in body fluid.

Ka expression is used to differentiate between strong and weak acids.

Which are strong acids and base and weak acids and bases?

  • LiOH  - strong base

  • HF      - weak acid

  • HCl     -  strong acid

  • NH3    -  weak base

What are the Ka expression of the following?

  • Weak acid – HF

[tex]\bold{\dfrac{[H+][F-]}{[HF]}}[/tex]

  • Weak base – NH3  

[tex]\bold{\dfrac{[NH_4^+] [OH^-]}{[NH_3]} }[/tex]

Calculate the concentration of OH?

Given, [tex]\bold{ [H^+]=1\times10^-^6\; at \;25^oC}[/tex]

We know, [tex]\bold{ [H^+]\times[OH^-]=1\times10^-^6\; at \;25^oC}[/tex]

[tex]\bold{[OH^-]=\dfrac{1\times10^-^1^4}{6.2\times10^-^6} = 1.43\times10^-^9}[/tex]

Now, multiplying the value by [tex]10^1^0[/tex]

[tex]\bold{( 1.429\times10^-^9) \times 1\times10^1^0= 14.29}[/tex]

Thus, the value is 14.29.
