The correct Answer is:
To determine which statement about pure water is incorrect, we will analyze each statement provided in the question step by step. ### Step 1: Understand the properties of pure water Pure water at 25 degrees Celsius has a specific concentration of hydrogen ions (H⁺) and hydroxide ions (OH⁻). The concentration of both is equal and is given by: \[ [H^+] = [OH^-] = 10^{-7} \text{ moles per liter} \] ### Step 2: Analyze the first statement **Statement 1:** The number of H⁺ ions in 1 ml of water is \(6.02 \times 10^{13}\) at 25 degrees Celsius. - Calculate the number of moles of H⁺ in 1 ml of water: \[ \text{Number of moles} = [H^+] \times \text{Volume in liters} = 10^{-7} \times \frac{1}{1000} = 10^{-10} \text{ moles} \] - Now, calculate the number of H⁺ ions: \[ \text{Number of H⁺ ions} = 10^{-10} \text{ moles} \times 6.02 \times 10^{23} \text{ ions/mole} = 6.02 \times 10^{13} \text{ ions} \] This statement is **correct**. ### Step 3: Analyze the second statement **Statement 2:** The number of OH⁻ ions is double the total molecules of water at 25 degrees Celsius. - In pure water, the concentration of OH⁻ ions is equal to the concentration of H⁺ ions, which is \(10^{-7}\) moles per liter. Therefore, the number of OH⁻ ions cannot be double that of H⁺ ions or the total number of water molecules. This statement is **incorrect**. ### Step 4: Analyze the third statement **Statement 3:** The number of water molecules is \(55.5 \times 6.02 \times 10^{23}\) in 1 liter of water at 25 degrees Celsius. - The density of water is approximately 1 g/ml, so 1 liter of water weighs about 1000 grams. The molar mass of water is approximately 18 g/mol. - Calculate the number of moles in 1 liter: \[ \text{Number of moles} = \frac{1000 \text{ g}}{18 \text{ g/mol}} \approx 55.5 \text{ moles} \] - Now, calculate the number of molecules: \[ \text{Number of molecules} = 55.5 \text{ moles} \times 6.02 \times 10^{23} \text{ molecules/mole} \] This statement is **correct**. ### Step 5: Analyze the fourth statement **Statement 4:** For pure water at all temperatures, the concentration of H⁺ is equal to the concentration of OH⁻ and is equal to the square root of \(K_w\) (the ionic product of water). - This is a true statement as the dissociation constant \(K_w\) relates to the concentrations of H⁺ and OH⁻ ions in pure water. This statement is **correct**. ### Conclusion After analyzing all statements, the incorrect statement is: **Final Answer:** The second statement is wrong: "The number of OH⁻ ions is double the total molecules of water at 25 degrees Celsius." ---
