An unknown substance is added to a solution and the pH increases The substance is best described as what?

The unknown substance would have to be a basic solution. At least more basic than the initial solution. The pH scale ranges from 0,Most acidic, to 14, Most Basic. If the pH of your solution increases when the unknown substance is added, then it would lead you to believe that the added substance is of a basic nature.

hydroxylamine is a reagent that helps reduce iron


How will Phenolphthalein help you test for unknown substances?

phenolphthalein turns pink when basic solution is added to it but remains colorless in case of neutral and acidic solution


Why ammonium oxalate is added in calcium carbonte solution?

ammonium oxalate is added to calcium carbonate because in the reaction between the two a crystal is formed that contain the Ca+2 ion. This is useful because if you have a sample of sodium carbonate with an unknown molarity you can use the oxalate to extract this calcium and determine what the molarity of the unknown solution was


What is a pH curve?

a plot showing the pH of a solution being analyzed as a function of the amount of titrant added


How do you determine the pka value of naphthalene?

Use a method called titration, where a known concentration of either a strong acid (to measure a weak base) or a strong base (to measure a weak acid) is slowly added to a solution of the unknown compound. By measuring the pH of the solution as you do the titration, and by measuring the volume of the known solution that you added to the unknown, you can determine the pKa of the unknown compound.For complete instructions on how a titration is performed, see the Web Links to the left of this answer.how can i determine pka value if pH is given?

process that release energy by breaking down food molecules in the presence of oxygen


which of the following best describes a solution that contains a buffer?

What is bromine and carbon tetrachloride?

Bromine in carbon tetrachloride is a brown-colored solution and used as a chemical test. When drops of bromine/carbon tetrachloride are added to a solution containing an unknown compound and the brown-colored bromine solution disappears, that means that the unknown compound contains carbon-carbon double bonds (since it absorbed the bromine solution). On the other hand, if the brown-colored bromine solution doesn't disappear then it means that no carbon double bonds are present. This is called a "Bromine Test."


Why is Ammonia solution added while preparing EDTA solution?

ammonia solution is added during the preparation of EDTA solution to increase the rate of dissolution of its disodium salt.
