Answer: second option: 1.70 to 1.40

Explanation:

1) The definition and formula of pH is - log [H₃O⁺]

2) So, if the original concentration is x and the increased concentration is 2x, you get:

pHi = - logx

pHf = - log 2x = - log 2 - logx

⇒ pHf - pHi = - log2 - logx - (- logx) =  - log2 ≈ - 0.30

⇒ pHi - pHf =  0.30 This is the pH of the final solution (with double concentration of hydronium ions) is 0.30 points lower than the pH of the initial pH.

3) The only choice that shows a decrease of 0.30 in the pH is the second option: 1.70 to 1.40. So that is the answer.

The change that could occur in the pH in the situation, <span>the [H3O+] in a solution is increased to twice the original concentration, is</span> 1.70 to 1.40
 pH formula  is - log [H₃O⁺]



pHi = - logx
pHf = - log 2x = - log 2 - logx
- log2 ≈ - 0.30
pHi - pHf =  0.30 
So there is a decrease of 0.30.

The physical state, or phase, that has the greatest kinetic energy is gas. In a gas, the molecules are more free to move and they move more rapidly than in the other phases, and it is this motion that constitutes kinetic energy.

When an object is lifted 6 meters off the ground, it gains a certain amount of potential energy. If the same object is lifted 18
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

The answer to your question is the letter C. three times as much

Explanation:

Data

First step = 6 m

Second step = 18 m

Potential energy is the energy stored that depends on its position.

Formula

Pe = mgh

m = mass; g = gravity; h = height

Potential energy of the first step

        Pe1 = 6mg

Potential energy of the second step

        Pe2 = 18mg

-Divide the Pe2 by the Pe1

        Pe2/Pe1 = 18mg/6mg

                       = 3
