QAIPMT-2005-Ch-2478: NEET 2005 Chemistry - Class 12 AIPMT-2005-Ch-2478 Solution: What is the correct relationship between the pH of isomolar…

What is the correct relationship between the pH of isomolar solutions of sodium oxide, Na2ONa_2O (pH1), sodium sulphide, Na2SNa_2S (pH2), sodium selenide, Na2SeNa_2Se (pH3) and sodium telluride Na2TeNa_2Te (pH4)?

Multiple Choice Options

  • A pH1>pH2>pH3>pH4pH1>pH2>pH3>pH4
  • B pH1>pH2≈pH3>pH4pH1>pH2\approx pH3>pH4
  • C pH1<pH2<pH3<pH4pH1<pH2<pH3<pH4
  • D pH1<pH2<pH3≈pH4pH1<pH2<pH3\approx pH4

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

Basic character decreases down the group Thus Na 2 O is most basic. We know that more the basic compound more is the pH. Hence, pH 1 > pH 2 > pH 3 > pH 4
