I believe it is spontaneous generation
Answer:
a. 3; b. 5; c. 10; d. 12
Explanation:
pH is defined as the negative log of the hydronium concentration:
pH = -log[H₃O⁺] (hydronium concentration)
For problems a. and b., HCl and HNO₃ are strong acids. This means that all of the HCl and HNO₃ would ionize, producing hydronium (H₃O⁺) and the conjugate bases Cl⁻ and NO₃⁻ respectively. Further, since all of the strong acid ionizes, 1 x 10⁻³ M H₃O⁺ would be produced for a., and 1.0 x 10⁻⁵ M H₃O⁺ for b. Plugging in your calculator -log[1 x 10⁻³] and -log[1.0 x 10⁻⁵] would equal 3 and 5, respectively.
For problems c. and d. we are given a strong base rather than acid. In this case, we can calculate the pOH:
pOH = -log[OH⁻] (hydroxide concentration)
Strong bases similarly ionize to completion, producing [OH⁻] in the process; 1 x 10⁻⁴ M OH⁻ will be produced for c., and 1.0 x 10⁻² M OH⁻ produced for d. Taking the negative log of the hydroxide concentrations would yield a pOH of 4 for c. and a pOH of 2 for d.
Finally, to find the pH of c. and d., we can take the pOH and subtract it from 14, giving us 10 for c. and 12 for d.
(Subtracting from 14 is assuming we are at 25°C; 14, the sum of pH and pOH, changes at different temperatures.)
Hello there.
Thomson's atomic model is best described by which of the following statements?
A nucleus with electrons moving around it like planets.
Option c
water is non polar and can dissolve non polar compounds such as oil
water is unable to dissolve or mix with substances like oil therefore making the statement false
