The dissociation of isocyanic acid in water produces its conjugate base, C N- since it will accept a proton to form isocyanic acid.

<h3>What is a conjugate base?</h3>

A conjugate base is a substance which is formed from the loss of the hydrogen ion of an acid and which will act as a base by accepting a proton.

The dissociation of Isocyanic acid in water is given below:

HC N + H_2O \rightleftharpoons C N^{-} + H_3O^{+}

The conjugate base is C N- since it will accept a proton to form isocyanic acid.

Answer:

The answer to your question is below

Explanation:

A.

[H₃O⁺] = 2 x 10⁻¹⁴ M

pH = ?

Formula

                                    pH = - log [H₃O⁺]

Substitution

                                    pH = - log [2 x 10⁻¹⁴]

Result

                                    pH = 13.7          

B.

[H₃O⁺] = ?

pH = 3.12

Formula

                                   pH = - log [H₃O⁺]

Substitution

                                   3.12 = - log [H₃O⁺]

                                   10^{-3.12} = [H_{3} O^{+}]

Result

                                  [H₃O⁺] = 7.59 M

Answer:

B. Spring balance - a device used for measuring the weight or force of gravity acting on an object.

Explanation:

A Force is any interaction that changes the motion or position of an obkpjectbthatbit is interacting with. Whenever there is an interaction between two objects, there is a force exerted by each of the objects on one themselves.

Forces are generally divided into contact forces and non-contact over field forces.

In contact forces, the two objects physically in contact with each other. Examples of contact forces are push or pull forces, frictional forces, tensional forces, spring forces, etc.

Non-contact forces are forces in which the two objects interacting do no need to be physically in contact with one another. Examples include, gravitational forces, magnetic forces, electrical forces, etc.

Instruments used in measuring forces are known as force gauges.

From the instruments listed above:

A. A ruler is an instrument used in measuring length

B. Spring balance is a device used for measuring the weight or force of gravity acting on an object.

C. A thermometer is an instrument used in measuring temperature

D. A windbvane is an instrument used in measuring wind direction.

A poundal is the force required to accelerate a mass of 1 lbm at a rate of 1 ft/s2, and a slug is the mass of an object that wil
Darya [45]
Remember the formula as per the second Law of Newton: F = m*a

And also remember that the weight is the force with which the mass is attracted by the planet (or satellite in the case of the moon).

With that information you can answer the questions:

a) Weight = F = m*a

m = 175 slugs = 175 lbm

i) Earth

a = 32.17 ft/s^2

Weight on Earth = 175 lbm * 32.17 ft / s^2 = 5,629.75 poundal

ii) Moon

a = [1/6] 32.17 ft/s^2

Weight on the Moon = [1/6]*5,629.75 poundal = 938.29 poundal

b) Force = 355 poundal
m = 25.0 slug

a in m/s^2 = ?

First calculate the force in ft/s^2

F = m*a => a = F/m = 355 poundal / 25.0 slug = 14.2 ft/s^2

Conversion:

14.2 ft / s^2 * [ 0.3048 m/ft] = 4.32816 m/s^2

Answer: 4.33 m/s^2
