There is an unstable ratio of protons and neutrons. Because protons are positively charged but neutrons have no charge, an increase in the number of protons means there needs to be an increase in the number of neutrons to "bind" the nucleus together. This is because like charges repel, so the protons will repel each other, and if there aren't enough neutrons to act as "glue" to hold the nucleus together, the nucleus will break apart.

The kw for water at 0 °c is 0.12× 10–14 m2. Calculate the ph of a neutral aqueous solution at 0 °c.
jekas [21]

Answer:

pH = 7.46.

Explanation:

  • The ionization of water is given by the equation :

<em>H₂O(l) ⇄ H⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq),</em>

<em></em>

  • The equilibrium constant (Kw) expression is:

<em>Kw = [H⁺][OH⁻] = 0.12 x 10⁻¹⁴.  </em>

<em></em>

in pure water and neutral aqueous solution, [H⁺] = [OH⁻]  

So, Kw = [H⁺]²

∴ 0.12 x 10⁻¹⁴ = [H⁺]²

∴ [H⁺] = 3.4 x 10⁻⁸ M.

∵ pH = - log [H⁺]  

pH = - log (3.4 x 10⁻⁸) = 7.46.

An increase in greenhouse gases results in?​
grin007 [14]
An increase in the atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases produces a positive climate forcing, or warming effect. From 1990 to 2015, the total warming effect from greenhouse gases added by humans to the Earth's atmosphere increased by 37 percent.

Which way does the heat flow?
Rus_ich [418]

No math is needed to explain this. All that you need to know is that the can (4°C) is in your hand (37°C).

Entropy will always move toward being balanced. Never will you find a lake in which half of it is 1°C and the other half is 70°C; it will be equal throughout.

Remember that "cold" doesn't exist. What we describe to be cold is actually a lack of heat.

So, by applying the two ideas above, it can be concluded that:

Since your hand is warmer than the can, the heat from your hand will be transferred to the can in order to reach an equal temperature.

The number of Al atoms in 0.25 mol of Al2(SO4)3​
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

3.011 × 10²³ atoms of Al

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of Al₂(SO₄)₃ = 0.25 mol

Number of atoms of Al = ?

Solution:

In one mole of Al₂(SO₄)₃  there are 2 moles of Al.

In 0.25 mol × 2 = 0.5 mol

1 mole of any substance contain 6.022 × 10²³ atoms.

In 0.5 moles of Al:

1 mole contain 6.022 × 10²³ atoms.

0.5 mol × 6.022 × 10²³ atoms/ 1 mol

3.011 × 10²³ atoms
