Question

What happens to the pH if you then add 0.6L of blood to the mixture? Is the mixture acidic or basic? Was the pH the same as it was in #6?

Answer 1

basic

Step-by-step explanation:

Please note: Kindly check attachment for the diagram showing phET simulation.

The determination of the pH value of a substance is one of the crucial aspect of Chemistry. A substance can be a basic, neutral or acidic. The basicity of a base can simply be defined as when a base has a characteristic of accepting proton.

The pH of the mixture will turn basic when 0.6L of blood is added to the mixture.

Also, note that the blood is basic, hence there will be a pH value greater that 7 [ 7.30].

The pH in #6 is 7.40. Both #6band this one are basic while their values are slightly different.
