Which base is the strongest for the given [H+]? 10-9 10-11 10-10 10-12
The answer is 10-12. The relationship of pH and [H+] is pH = -lg[H+]. And the higher pH, the stronger base is. So the strongest base has the lowest concentration of H+.
Answer:The strongest base with \(H^+]\) concentration is \([H^+]=10^{-12} M\).
Explanation:
\(pH=-\log[H^+]\)
Higher the pH value less will be the concentration of \([H^+]\) ion concentration and stronger will be the base.
1. \([H^+]=10^{-9} M\)
\(pH=-\log[10^{-9}]=9\)
2.\([H^+]=10^{-11} M\)
\(pH=-\log[10^{-11}]=11\)
3.\([H^+]=10^{-10} M\)
\(pH=-\log[10^{-10}]=10\)
4.\([H^+]=10^{-12} M\)
\(pH=-\log[10^{-12}]=12\)
The strongest base with \(H^+\)concentration is \([H^+]=10^{-12} M\).
