The parameter pH is a measure of the substance's acidity or basicity. It is quantitatively equal to the negative logarithm of the concentration of H+ ions. So, the lower the pH, the more acidic the substance, Otherwise, the higher the pH the more basic the substance. The pH range runs from 1 to 14, with 7 being neutral.

So, if we are asked to distinguish which of those have the lowest pH, we have to know the moles of H+ ions. Since all of them have a concentration of 0.1 M, concentration is not a factor. Thus, we just have to identify the strongest acid among the list. That is easy to answer because you only have to remember 7 strong acid occurring in nature: HCl, H₂SO₄, HNO₃, HClO₄, HClO₃, HBr, and HI. Since only HNO₃ is included in the list among the choices, the answer would be letter D.

Why is the Atlantic Ocean growing larger, but the Pacific Ocean is growing smaller?
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

A.The Atlantic Ocean has more mid-ocean ridges than the Pacific Ocean so that keeps it growing larger.

Explanation:

Atlantic ocean is getting bigger because of the presence of spreading centers (divergent plate boundary). ... Pacific Ocean is getting smaller because the pacific plate is subducting along the subduction zones. Subduction zones are areas where old, dense plate subducts beneath a less dense plate.

A similarity between the forces involved in both ionic and covalent bonding is that both A. involve the sharing of electrons. B.
NISA [10]

Answer:

C. involve the attraction of opposite charges

Explanation:

<em>Ionic bonding</em> involves the attraction between <em>oppositely charged ions</em>, as in Na⁺ Cl⁻.

<em>Covalent bonding</em> involves the attraction between <em>negatively charged electrons and positivey charged nuclei</em>, as in a C-H bond.

A is <em>wrong</em>. Ionic bonding involves the transfer of electrons.

B is <em>wrong</em>. Covalent bonding involves the sharing of electrons.

D is <em>wrong</em>. Ionic bonds are usually stronger than covalent bonds.

the volume of a gas is 550 ml at 960 mm hg and 200.0°C. What volume would the pressure of the gas be 830 mm Hg if the temperatur
gavmur [86]

Answer:

V₂ = 568.9 mL

Explanation:

Given data:

Volume of gas = 550 mL

Pressure of a gas = 960 mmHg

Temperature = 200.0°C ( 200+273 = 473 K)

Final volume = ?

Final pressure = 830 mmHg

Final temperature = 150°C (150+273 = 423 K)

Solution:

Formula:  

P₁V₁/T₁ = P₂V₂/T₂  

P₁ = Initial pressure

V₁ = Initial volume

T₁ = Initial temperature

P₂ = Final pressure

V₂ = Final volume

T₂ = Final temperature

Solution:

V₂ = P₁V₁ T₂/ T₁ P₂  

V₂ = 960 mmHg × 550 mL × 423 K / 473 K ×830 mmHg

V₂ = 223344000 mL / 392590

V₂ = 568.9 mL
