This is because some Richer scales are programed or made differently in the factory therefore effecting ones ability to scale an Earth Quake

The Richter scale tells the amount of force that is needed to create the waves and that is used in the moment magnitude scale.
It's kind of like measuring the weight of an object to find the density, it isn't all the information you need.

Identify the brønsted-lowry acid, the brønsted-lowry base, the conjugate acid, and the conjugate base in each reaction: (a) c5h5
Pie

acids give away protons (H+), bases accept protons, conjugate bases are what u get when when you take the protons from the acid, and conjugate acids are what u get when you add the protons to the base.

so for (a) the C5H5N is the base, water is the acid, C5H5NH+ is the conj acid, OH- is the conj base

(b) HNO3 is the acid, H2O is the base, hydronium ion is the conj. acid, NO3- is the conj base.

You need to make 10.0 L of 1.2 M KNO3. What molar ( concentration) would the potassium nitrate solution need to be if you were t
solniwko [45]

Answer:

2.5L [NaCl] concentrate needs to be 4.8 Molar solution before dilution to prep 10L of 1.2M KNO₃ solution.

Explanation:

Generally, moles of solute in solution before dilution must equal moles of solute after dilution.

By definition Molarity = moles solute/volume of solution in Liters

=> moles solute = Molarity x Volume (L)

Apply moles before dilution = moles after dilution ...

=> (Molarity X Volume)before dilution = (Molarity X Volume)after dilution

=> (M)(2.5L)before = (1.2M)(10.0L)after

=> Molarity of 2.5L concentrate = (1.2M)(10.0L)/(2.5L) = 4.8 Molar concentrate
