The scale used to measure the basicity of a substance is called the pH Scale. A base which when measured on a pH scale obtains a  value greater than 7 but less than or equal to 10 is weak base and from 10-14 is strong base

<h3>Meaning of Base and basicity</h3>

A base is any substance that has the ability to accept hydrogen ion in water and also netralize an acid when mixed together.

Basicity is an attribute associated with the pH scale measurement of values above 7 to 14.

Basicity increases on the scale from 7 to 14. On the pH scale 7 is neutral. So the higher we go the more basic a solution becomes until it gets to its highest point which is 14.

In conclusion, The scale used to measure the basicity of a substance is called the pH Scale. A base which when measured on a pH scale obtains a  value greater than 7 but less than or equal to 10 is weak base and from 10-14 is strong base

The following data was collected when a reaction was performed experimentally in the laboratory.
REY [17]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 3 moles of AlCl₃

Explanation:

Process

1.- Write and balance the equation

                  Al(NO₃)₃ + 3NaCl   ⇒   3NaNO₃  +  AlCl₃

2.- Determine the limiting reactant

Theoretical proportion     1 mol Al(NO₃)₃ :  3 moles of NaCl                  

Experimental proportion   4 moles Al(NO₃)₃ : 9 moles NaCl

From these values, we determine that the limiting reactant is NaCl because the number of moles increases three times and the number of moles of Al(NO₃)₃  increases four times.

3.- Determine the amount of AlCl₃ using proportions

                       3 moles of NaCl --------------- 1 mol of AlCl₃

                       9 moles of NaCl ----------------  x

                       x = (9 x 1) / 3

                       x = 9 /3

                       x = 3 moles

Formaldehyde is a carcinogenic volatile organic compound with a permissible exposure level of 0.75 ppm. At this level, how many
Flauer [41]

Answer : The amount of formaldehyde permissible are, 5.4\times 10^{-6}g

Explanation : Given,

Density of air = 1.2kg/m^3=1.2g/L     (1kg/m^3=1g/L)

First we have to calculate the mass of air.

\text{Mass of air}=\text{Density of air}\times \text{Volume of air}

\text{Mass of air}=1.2g/L\times 6.0L

\text{Mass of air}=7.2g

Now we have to calculate the amount of formaldehyde.

Permissible exposure level of formaldehyde = 0.75 ppm = \frac{0.75g\text{ of formaldehyde}}{10^6g\text{ of air}}

Amount of formaldehyde in 7.2 g of formaldehyde = 7.2g\times \frac{0.75g\text{ of formaldehyde}}{10^6g\text{ of air}}

Amount of formaldehyde in 7.2 g of formaldehyde = 5.4\times 10^{-6}g

Thus, the amount of formaldehyde permissible are, 5.4\times 10^{-6}g
