Answer:
d- it is an acid because it increases the concentration of hydronium ions
Explanation:
HCl; hydrochloric acid is an acid because it increases the concentration of hydronium ions when in solutions.
An acid is a substance that interacts with water to produce excess hydroxonium ions H₃O⁺ in an aqueous solution.
For example:
HCl + H₂O → H₃O⁺ + Cl⁻
HCl is classified as a strong acid due to its complete ionization when in solutions.
Given:
257J of heat
5500g of mercury
increase by 5.5
degrees Celsius
Required:
Specific heat of
mercury
Solution:
H
= mCpT
257J = (5500g of
mercury) Cp (5.5 degrees Celsius)
Cp = 8.5 x 10^-3
Joules per gram per degree Celsius
PH (potential of hydrogen) is a numeric scale that is used to show the acidity or basicity of an aqueous solution. It tells how acidic or alkaline a substance is . The pH values ranges from 0 to 14, such that acidic solutions have values between 1 to 6.9 with most acidic having a pH value of 1 and those that are basic have values from 7.1 to 14, with most acidic having a value of 14. Acidic compounds contain replaceable hydrogen ions while basic compounds contain hrdroxyl ions. In this case, a coke has a pH of 3.5 (acidic) which means that it has an excess of hydrogen ions (H+) and would be called an acid.
Molarity is moles divided by liters so do .732 divided by .975 liters.
