A pH scale runs from 1 to 14 with 7 being neutral.
1-6 has base like properties
8-14 has avid line properties
since this solution has a pH scale of 4.... the solution is basic
T=20 min
m₀=200 g
t=60 min
the mass of element through time t is:
m=m₀*2^(-t/T)
m=200*2^(-60/20)=25 g
25 grams of element will be left after 60 minutes
I believe it is Sodium. I could be wrong though.
The final temperature of the lead-water system will be lower than the final temperature of the copper-water system.
If they didn't, they wouldn't be able to communicate their findings effectively. An international language is especially important for elements because many elements have similar properties (e.g. some of the transition metals).
