Question

onsider two aqueous solutions of nitrous acid (HNO2). Solution A has a concentration of [HNO2]= 0.55 M and solution B has a concentration of [HNO2]= 1.55 M . You may want to reference (Page 743) Section 16.6 while completing this problem. Part A Which statement about the two solutions is true? Which statement about the two solutions is true? Solution A has the higher percent ionization and solution B has the higher pH. Solution B has the higher percent ionization and the higher pH. Solution B has the higher percent ionization and solution A has the higher pH. Solution A has the higher percent ionization and the higher pH.

Answer 1

Solution A has the higher percent ionization and the higher pH

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Solution A has the higher percent ionization and the higher pH.

Step-by-step explanation:

Percent ionization depends on the concentration of acid in a solution. If the solution having more concentration of acid so the percent ionization will be lower while if the solution have low amount of acid i. e. dilute solution so the percent ionization will be higher. In solution A, the concentration of HNO2 is lower which is an acid so the percent ionization is higher and the pH of the solution is also higher as compared to solution B.
