Note the rule

pOH=-log[OH-]

And we can find the answer through logarithm rules basic

loga^b=bloga

So

-log10^-n=n

Higher the n higher the pOH

But

pH=14-pOH
Lesses pOH=Higher pH i.e basic High

As we can see

Option D has least n (5)

Hence D is more basic

Which of these solutions is the most basic?

[OH-] = 4.3 x 10-9 M

[OH-] = 2.8 x 10-11 M

[OH-] = 6.7 x 10-10 M

[OH-] = 1.0 x 10-5 M

<h2>Answer↷</h2>

<u>[OH-] = 1.0 x 10-5 M</u> ✓

<h2>Solution↷</h2>

[OH-] = 4.3 x 10-9 M

[OH-] = 4.3 x 10^-9 M
pOH = - log [OH^1-]
pOH = - log [4.3 x 10^-9]
pOH = 8.36
pH = 14- 8.36
pH = 5.64

_______________________________________

[OH-] = 2.8 x 10-11 M

[OH-] = 2.8 x 10^-11 M
pOH = - log [OH^1-]
pOH = - log [2.8 x 10^-11 ]
pOH = 10.55
pH = 14-10.55
pH = 3.45

_______________________________________

[OH-] = 6.7 x 10-10 M

[OH-] = 6.7 x 10^-10 M
pOH = - log [OH^1-]
pOH = - log [6.7 x 10^-10]
pOH = 9.17
pH = 14-9.17
pH = 4.83

_______________________________________

[OH-] = 1.0 x 10-5 M

[OH-] = 1.0 x 10-5 M
pOH = - log [OH^1-]
pOH = - log [1.0 x 10^-5 ]
pOH = 5
pH = 14-5
pH = 9

_______________________________________

we know that , the solution with <u>pH > 7</u> is termed as basic and more the pH ,more the basicity, hence ,the solution with the highest pH would be the strongest base out of these all which is

<u>[OH-] = 1.0 x 10-5 M</u> with pH = 9

Arden is making a pros and cons list about genetic engineering for a debate at school. Which part of her list is incorrect?

Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

The part of Arden's list that seems to be wrong is that genetic engineering can create organisms that survive in different environments (Pro 2).

Explanation:

Genetic engineering is a branch of genetics that introduces the use of technology to modify a living organism by introducing modified DNA into its original genome in order to improve its characteristics

The organisms subjected to changes by genetic engineering are called genetically modified organisms or GMOs, and can be stronger, longer-lived, more productive, or resistant to disease.

<em>Making a species resistant to any environment could cause it to develop in places where it could not live before, affecting the natural balance of an ecosystem to which it previously did not belong, so Pro 2 on Arden's list does not seem to be entirely beneficia</em>l.

In a unimolecular reaction with twice as much starting material as product at equilibrium, what is the value of Keq? Is ΔG o pos

lubasha [3.4K]

Answer : The value of $K_{eq}$ is, 0.5 and $\Delta G$ = positive.

Explanation :

The unimolecular reaction is:

$A\rightarrow B$

In unimolecular reaction, the starting material is 2 times to the product.

$A=2B$ .........(1)

As we know that:

$K_{eq}=\frac{B}{A}$ ...........(2)

Now substitute equation 1 in 2, we get:

$K_{eq}=\frac{\frac{A}{2}}{A}$

$K_{eq}=0.5$

Now we have to calculate the value of $\Delta G^o$ at 298 K.

$\Delta G^o=-RT\ln K_{eq}$

where,

$\Delta G^o$ = standard Gibbs free energy = ?

R = gas constant = 8.314 J/mol.K

T = temperature = 298 K

$K_{eq}$ = equilibrium constant = 0.5

Now put all the given values on the above formula, we get:

$\Delta G^o=-(8.314J/mol.K)\times (298K)\ln (0.5)$

$\Delta G^o=1717.32J/mol$

Thus, the value of $\Delta G^o$ at 298 K is, 1717.32 J/mol

As we know that:

$\Delta G$ = +ve, reaction is non spontaneous

$\Delta G$ = -ve, reaction is spontaneous

$\Delta G$ = 0, reaction is in equilibrium

Thus, the $\Delta G$ = +ve. So, the reaction is non spontaneous.

All rocks follow the same pathway though the rock cycle us a false statement. Why?

sammy [17]

False.

This is because there are three different rocks, metamorphic, sedimentary, and igneous. Thus, meaning that there are three different pathways, making this statement false.

Hope this helps!
