pH of acids, bases and salts

Exercise 9

   

Calculate the $pH$ of a 0.483 $\frac{g}{L}$  sodium amide solution

$NH_2^-$ (treated as) strong base The number of moles of $NH_2^-$ is equal to the number of moles of sodium amide ! Number of moles sodium amide in $1\;L$: $n$ $=$ $\frac{m}{M}$ = (with $m$ $ =$ 0.483 $\; g$ and $M$ = 39.01) 0.0124$ \;mol$ $c_{NH_2^-}$ $=$ $\frac{n}{V}$ = 0.0124 $\frac{mol}{L}$ $pH$ $=$ $14$ $+$ $log\;c_{NH_2^-}$ = $14$ $+$ $log \;$0.0124 = 12.09
