QAIPM-2000-Ph-2995: NEET 2000 Chemistry - Class 11 AIPM-2000-Ph-2995 Solution: Which statement is wrong about pH and \(H^+\)?
Which statement is wrong about pH and ?
Multiple Choice Options
- A pH of neutral water is not zero.
- B Adding 1 N solution of and 1 N solution of NaOH, pH will be seven.
- C [] of dilute and hot is more than concentrated and cold
- D Mixing solution of and HCl. pH will be less than 7.
Step-by-Step Verified Solution
CH 3 COOH is weak acid while NaOH is
strong base, so one equivalent of NaOH can
not be neutralized with one equivalent of
CH 3 COOH. Hence the solution of one equivalent
of each does not have pH value as 7. Its pH will be
towards basic side as NaOH is a strong base
hence conc. of OH � will be more than the conc.
of H + .
