The pH level is 1.39. To explain, we start with the given information: the concentration of HClO is 0.15 M, with an acid dissociation constant of 2.9 × 10-8. The objective is to calculate the pH of the solution. Through the process, we find that the equilibrium concentration after applying the formula yields 0.04069 M for H3O⁺, leading us to a pH of 1.39.
Start by determining the number of moles, which is obtained by dividing 38 grams by the molar mass of 58.43 g/mol. This calculation yields 0.65 moles. The concentration is calculated by dividing the number of moles by the volume in liters. Using this formula, we can derive the total volume by dividing the number of moles by the concentration. Thus, 0.65 moles divided by 0.02M (mol/L) results in a total volume of 32.5 L.
Answer:
0.31%
Explanation:
For the chemical reaction:
I₂ + 2 S₂O₃²⁻ → 2 I⁻ + S₄O₆²⁻
0.043 L multiplied by 0.117 M of sodium thiosulfate gives 5.031x10⁻³ moles of S₂O₃²⁻
5.031x10⁻³ moles of S₂O₃²⁻ produces:
ClO⁻⁻ + 2 H⁺ + 2 I⁻ → I₂ + Cl⁻ + H2O
2.5156x10⁻³ moles of I₂ equates to moles of NaClO
2.5156x10⁻³ moles of NaClO times 
yields 0.187 g of NaClO
Thus, the mass percentage composition is:
= 0.31%
I hope this helps!
