The correct Answer is:
To determine which statement is false, we will analyze each option step by step. ### Step 1: Analyze Option 1 **Statement**: If 2.0 liters of a solution of H₂SO₄ contains 0.1 molar, then the pH of the solution is 1. 1. **Dissociation of H₂SO₄**: H₂SO₄ is a strong dibasic acid, meaning it dissociates completely into 2 moles of H⁺ ions for every mole of H₂SO₄. - H₂SO₄ → 2 H⁺ + SO₄²⁻ 2. **Calculate moles of H⁺**: - Given concentration of H₂SO₄ = 0.1 M in 2.0 L. - Moles of H₂SO₄ = 0.1 mol/L × 2 L = 0.2 moles. - Therefore, moles of H⁺ = 0.2 moles × 2 = 0.4 moles. 3. **Calculate concentration of H⁺**: - Concentration of H⁺ = moles of H⁺ / volume = 0.4 moles / 2 L = 0.2 M. 4. **Calculate pH**: - pH = -log[H⁺] = -log(0.2) = 0.7 (approximately). **Conclusion**: The statement that the pH is 1 is **false**. ### Step 2: Analyze Option 2 **Statement**: The concentration of OH⁻ ions in 0.005 molar HNO₃ is 2 x 10⁻¹² mole per liter. 1. **Dissociation of HNO₃**: HNO₃ is a strong acid and dissociates completely. - HNO₃ → H⁺ + NO₃⁻ 2. **Calculate concentration of H⁺**: - Concentration of H⁺ = 0.005 M. 3. **Calculate concentration of OH⁻ using Kw**: - Kw = [H⁺][OH⁻] = 1 x 10⁻¹⁴. - [OH⁻] = Kw / [H⁺] = 1 x 10⁻¹⁴ / 0.005 = 2 x 10⁻¹² M. **Conclusion**: This statement is **true**. ### Step 3: Analyze Option 3 **Statement**: The pH of 0.01 molar KOH is 12. 1. **Dissociation of KOH**: KOH is a strong base and dissociates completely. - KOH → K⁺ + OH⁻ 2. **Calculate concentration of OH⁻**: - Concentration of OH⁻ = 0.01 M. 3. **Calculate pOH**: - pOH = -log[OH⁻] = -log(0.01) = 2. 4. **Calculate pH**: - pH = 14 - pOH = 14 - 2 = 12. **Conclusion**: This statement is **true**. ### Step 4: Analyze Option 4 **Statement**: In a 0.001 molar solution of sodium hydroxide, the concentration of H⁺ ion is 10⁻³ mole per liter. 1. **Dissociation of NaOH**: NaOH is a strong base and dissociates completely. - NaOH → Na⁺ + OH⁻ 2. **Calculate concentration of OH⁻**: - Concentration of OH⁻ = 0.001 M. 3. **Calculate pOH**: - pOH = -log[OH⁻] = -log(0.001) = 3. 4. **Calculate pH**: - pH = 14 - pOH = 14 - 3 = 11. 5. **Calculate concentration of H⁺**: - pH = -log[H⁺] → [H⁺] = 10⁻¹¹ M. **Conclusion**: The statement that the concentration of H⁺ is 10⁻³ M is **false**. ### Final Conclusion The false statement is from **Option 1** and **Option 4**. However, since the question asks for which statement is false, we conclude that: **The false statement is from Option 4**: "In a 0.001 molar solution of sodium hydroxide, the concentration of H⁺ ion is 10⁻³ mole per liter."

To determine which statement is false, we will analyze each option step by step. ### Step 1: Analyze Option 1 **Statement**: If 2.0 liters of a solution of H₂SO₄ contains 0.1 molar, then the pH of the solution is 1. 1. **Dissociation of H₂SO₄**: H₂SO₄ is a strong dibasic acid, meaning it dissociates completely into 2 moles of H⁺ ions for every mole of H₂SO₄. - H₂SO₄ → 2 H⁺ + SO₄²⁻ ...
