    1. 6.34.

    2. 6.3 x 10⁻¹¹ M H₃O⁺ and 1.6 * 10⁻¹⁰ M OH⁻.

    3. 7.58.

    4. 4.38.

    5. True.

    6. True.

    Explanation:

    1. What is the pH of a solution with a 2.20 * 10⁻⁸ M hydroxide ion concentration?

    ∵ [H₃O⁺][OH⁻] = 10⁻¹⁴.

    [OH⁻] = 2.20 * 10⁻⁸ M.

    ∴ [H₃O⁺] = 10⁻¹⁴/[OH⁻] = 10⁻¹⁴ / (2.20 * 10⁻⁸ M) = 4.54 * 10⁻⁷ M.

    ∵ pH = - log[H₃O⁺]

    ∴ pH = - log (4.54 * 10⁻⁷ M) = 6.34.

    2. What are the concentrations of hydroxide and hydronium ions in a solution with a pH of 10.2?

    ∵ pH = - log[H₃O⁺]

    ∴ 10.2 = - log[H₃O⁺].

    ∴ log[H₃O⁺] = - 10.2.

    ∴ [H₃O⁺] = 6.31 x 10⁻¹¹ M ≅ 6.3 x 10⁻¹¹ M.

    ∵ [H₃O⁺][OH⁻] = 10⁻¹⁴.

    [H₃O⁺] = 6.31 x 10⁻¹¹ M.

    ∴ [OH⁻] = 10⁻¹⁴/[H₃O⁺] = 10⁻¹⁴ / (6.31 x 10⁻¹¹ M) = 1.58 * 10⁻⁴ M ≅ 1.6 * 10⁻¹⁰ M.

    So, the right choice is: 6.3 x 10⁻¹¹ M H₃O⁺ and 1.6 * 10⁻¹⁰ M OH⁻.

    3. A solution at 25 degrees Celsius has a pOH of 6.42. What is the pH of this solution?

    ∵ pH + pOH = 14.

    ∵ pOH = 6.42.

    ∴ pH = 14 - pOH = 14 - 6.42 = 7.58.

    4. What is the pH of a solution with a concentration of 4.2 * 10⁻⁵ M H₃O⁺?

    ∵ pH = - log[H₃O⁺]

    ∵ [H₃O⁺] = 4.2 * 10⁻⁵ M.

    ∴ pH = - log (4.2 * 10⁻⁵ M) = 4.376 ≅ 4.38.

    5. Water is an amphoteric substance because it can receive and donate hydrogen ions. True False

    A Brønsted-Lowry acid is any species that is capable of donating a proton H⁺.

    A Brønsted-Lowry base is any species that is capable of accepting a proton, which requires a lone pair of electrons to bond to the H⁺.

    Water is amphoteric, which means it can act as both a Brønsted-Lowry acid and a Brønsted-Lowry base.

    So, the answer is: True.

    6. The concentration of hydronium ions is greater than 1 * 10⁻⁷ for basic solutions. True False

    For a solution to be acidic, The concentration of hydronium ions is smaller than 1 * 10⁻⁷, that pH of the solution will be lower than 7.

    For a solution to be basic, The concentration of hydronium ions is greater than 1 * 10⁻⁷, that pH of the solution will be higher than 7.

    So, the answer is: True.
