The pH of a 0.0100 M sodium benzoate solution is determined as 8.09.

<h3>What is pH of a solution?</h3>

The pH of a solution is a measure of hydrogen (H+) ion concentration, which is, in turn, a measure of acidity of the solution.

pH is can also be determined from pOH of the solution as shown below;

pH = 14 - pOH

<h3>pH of the benzoate solution</h3>

let the hydroxyl concentration, OH = x

x²/M = kb

x²/0.01 = 1.5 x 10⁻¹⁰

x² = 1.5 x 10⁻¹²

x = √(1.5 x 10⁻¹²)

x = 1.2247 x 10⁻⁶

pOH = - log(OH⁻)

pOH = -log( 1.2247 x 10⁻⁶)

pOH = 5.91

<h3>Calculate the value of the pH</h3>

pH = 14 - 5.91

pH = 8.09

Thus, the pH of a 0.0100 M sodium benzoate solution is determined as 8.09.

How did atomic theory develop and change?
Agata [3.3K]
The atomic theory started with Democritus, who stated that all space was made up of indivisible particles called atoms, though Aristotles refuted that statement by saying that matter didn’t exist, he believed in the four elements: air, fire, water, and earth. Then came Dalton, who revived Democritus’s ideas and proposed the law of multiple proportions, he revived the idea that all space was made of atoms. Soon after, J.J Thompson discovered the electron by using cathode rays. Max Planck developed the quantum theory by stating that electromagnetic radiation could only be emitted in quantized form (later called quanta). Einstein furthered this idea with studies of light. Robert Millikan eventually measured the charge of a single electron. Ernest Rutherford used a gold foil experiment and discovered the nuclei, considering his alpha particles were deflected by some object. Niels Bohr made the atomic model with electrons spinning around an atom’s nucleus, Erwin Schrodinger describes how electrons have wave like properties. James Chadwick then discovers the neutron!

There ya have it!

The isotope of carbon used in archaeological dating is 14^6C . How many protons, neutrons, and electrons does an atom of 14^6C h
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

6

8

6

Explanation:

 Isotope given:

                       ¹⁴₆C

In specie written as this;  

   Superscript  = Mass number

   Subscript  = Atomic number

To find the protons, it is the same as the atomic number;

                Protons  = Atomic number  = 6

Neutrons have no charges;

 Neutrons  = Mass number - Atomic number  =

  Neutrons  = 14 - 6  = 8

The number of electrons is the same as the atomic number = 6
