Without conducting an experiment, one can determine if a species in a solution is acidic or basic by using a litmus paper.

<h3>Litmus test</h3>

Acidic species would turn a blue litmus paper to red but have no effects on red litmus paper.

Basic species would turn a red litmus paper to blues but have no effects on blue litmus paper.

Thus, in order to determine if a species in a solution is acidic or basic without conducting any experiment, dipping a litmus paper into the solution would give an indication.

Masteriza [31]

To contain the same number of atoms also mean to contain the same number of moles. So let us say that X is the mass of Silver Ag required, so that:

X / 107.87 = 10 / 10.81

<span>X = 99.79 g</span>

For a certain experiment, a student requires 100 milliliters of a solution that is 8% HCl (hydrochloric acid). The storeroom has
exis [7]

Answer:

70 mL of 5% HCl and 30 mL of 15% HCl

Explanation:

We will designate x to be the fraction of the final solution that is composed of 5% HCl, and y to be the fraction of the final solution that is composed of 15% HCl. Since the percentage of the final solution is 8%, we can write the following expression:

5x + 15y = 8

Since x and y are fractions of a total, they must equal one:

x + y = 1

This is a system of two equations with two unknowns. We will proceed to solve for x. First, an expression for y is found:

y = 1 - x

This expression is substituted into the first equation and we solve for x.

5x + 15(1 - x) = 8

5x+ 15 - 15x = 8

-10x = -7

x = 7/10 = 0.7

We then calculate the value of y:

y = 1 - x = 1 - 0.7 = 0.3

Thus 0.7 of the 100 mL will be the 5% HCl solution, so the volume of 5% HCl we need is:

(100 mL)(0.7) = 70 mL

Similarly, the volume of 15% HCl we need is:

(100 mL)(0.3) = 30 mL
