1.) (16) Chemistry is everywhere! Drugs, foods, fertilizer, household cleaners, byproducts of combustion, decomposed plastics and more all make their way into our streams and lakes affecting the ecosystem. Many of these "additives" affect the pH of a solution. YOU are now equipped to identify how a specific compound will affect pH! Which of the following compounds (CIRCLE all that apply) will form a basic solution (pH >7) when dissolved alone in pure water? (Abbreviations of organic acids-and by inference their conjugate base- are indicated in the provided Ka table) Na2Xal Na2HPO4AnalineNaHMal NH4CI NH4OCI FeCl NH4Lac NaHS NaHSO3 NaNO3 NaCIO4 NaHCO3 Na2SO3 NalI2PO4 NaCH3CoO NaLac HCN
