A weak acid is added to a concentrated solution of hydrochloric acid. Does the solution become more or less acidic?


A) More acidic, since there are more hydronium ions being added to the solution.
B) Less acidic, since the solution becomes more dilute with a less concentrated solution of hydronium ions being added to the solution.
C) No change in acidity, since the concentration of the hydrochloric acid is too high to be changed by the weak solution.
D) Less acidic since the concentration of hydroxide ions will increase.

Sometimes an individual going through a traumatic experience cannot stop hyperventilating. In such a circumstance, it is recommended that the individual breath into a paper bag or cupped hands as a useful way to avoid an increase in blood pH, which can cause the person to pass out.

Would it be easier or harder for a water molecule to donate a hydrogen ion if its polar H-O bond were even more polar? Why?


A) Easier. As polarity increases the bond classification tends towards ionic. An ionic bond would mean a greater separation of positive and negative charge making it easier for the water molecule to donate a hydrogen ion.
B) Harder. Increasing the polarity makes the bond stronger. The stronger the bond the more difficult it would be for the water molecule to donate a hydrogen ion.
C) Neither. Increasing the polarity of the O-H bond would not affect the hydrogen bonding between the water molecules and therefore have no effect on the water molecule's ability to donate a hydrogen ion.
D) Both. The ability of the water molecule to donate a hydrogen ion is dependent upon the environment you place it in. If the surrounding molecules are more covalent, donating the electron would be harder. However, if water found itself in a highly polar environment, increasing the O-H polarity would make it easier.
