You would need to add enough of the alkaline solution to make the total volume 14 litres. The pH of a solution is a measure of the concentration of the hydrogen ion. In fact it is the logarithm of the reciprocal of the hydrogen ion concentration.

Water ionizes to give one hydrogen ion per 10 million molecules so the pH is log(10,000,000)=7. The pOH (alkalinity) is obtained by taking the pH away from 14. So pH 8 is equivalent to pOH 6. The pOH is the logarithm of the reciprocal of the hydroxide ion concentration. To achieve neutrality the number of hydrogen ions must balance the number of hydroxide ions.

The difference between the pH of the acid solution and the pOH of the alkaline solution is 3. This tells us that the acid is 10 to the power of 3 times i.e. a thousand times more concentrated than the alkaline solution. Thus the acid needs to be diluted to one part in a thousand with the alkaline solution.

What does it mean to neutralize a solution and how can this be done?

Neutralizing a solution involves adjusting its pH to make it neither acidic nor basic. This is usually done by adding an acid to a basic solution or a base to an acidic solution until the desired pH is reached. Different chemicals can be used depending on the initial pH of the solution and the desired final pH.


Predict the acidic basic or neutral character of the solutions of the following salt?

To predict the acidity or basicity of a salt solution, we need to consider the ions it forms when dissolved in water. If the cation or anion of the salt is a strong acid or base, the solution will be neutral. If the cation is from a weak base and the anion is from a strong acid, the solution will be acidic. If the cation is from a strong base and the anion is from a weak acid, the solution will be basic.


What volume of a 0.160 M solution would have to be added to 550.0 mL of the acidic solution to neutralize completely all of the acid?

To neutralize the acidic solution completely, you need to add a solution of basic nature. The volume of the basic solution required can be calculated using the formula: ( V_1 \times C_1 = V_2 \times C_2 ), where ( V_1 ) and ( C_1 ) are the volume and concentration of the acidic solution, and ( V_2 ) and ( C_2 ) are the volume and concentration of the basic solution, respectively. Substituting the known values, you can find the volume of the basic solution needed.
