Rank the following 0.010 M solutions in order of increasing pH. NH3 NaOH HClO4 HCl NaF H2CO3 HF Ba(OH)2 NaNO3 NH4Cl
NH3 ---- weak base pH near to 7 and above 7
NaOH ----- strong base so pH near to 14
HClO4 ---- strong acid so pH is near to 0 or 1
HCl ----- strong acid , so pH near to 0
NaF ---- Is a salt of strong base & weak acid , so the resultant solution is weak base in nature so pH is near to 7 and above 7
H2CO3 ---- weak acid so the pH is near to 7 and below 7
HF also weak acid, & is stronger than H2CO3
Ba(OH)2 ---- strong base so pH is near to 14
NaNO3 ----- is a salt of strong acid & strong base so the resultant solution is neutral so pH is 7
NH4Cl ---- is a salt of strong acid & weak base so the pH near to 7 and below 7
So the order of increasing pH is :
HCl ,HClO4 , HF , H2CO3 , NaF , NH4Cl , NaNO3 , NH3 , Ba(OH)2 , NaOH
