Determine the resulting pH when 12mL if 0.16M HCl are reacted with 32 mL if 0.24M KOH.

pH = 13.1

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given information, we can set up the following equation:

Thus, since there is 1:1 mole ratio of HCl to KOH, we can find the reacting moles as follows:

Thus, since there are less moles of HCl, we calculate the remaining moles of KOH as follows:

And the resulting concentration of KOH and OH ions as this is a strong base:

And the resulting pH is:

it would be a gas formation
