Calculate the ph of sweater which has a hydrogen ion concentration of 1 times 10 to the power of 8

telo118 [61]

Answer:

The pH of the sweater containing Hydrogen ion concentration

$[H^{+}]=1\times 10^{-8}$ is

8

Explanation:

pH = It is the negative logarithm of activity (concentration) of hydrogen ions.

pH = -log([H+])

Now, In the question the concentration of [H+] ions is :

$[H^{+}]=1\times 10^{-8}$

$pH = -log(1\times 10^{-8})$

use the relation:

$log(10^{-a})=a$

$pH= -(-8)$

pH = 8

Note : 1 times 10 to the power of 8 must be" 1 times 10 to the power of -8"

If the concentration is

$[H^{+}]=1\times 10^{8}$

Then pH = -8 , which is not possible . So in that case the pH calculation is by other method

The atomic nucleus contains two subatomic particles, the proton and the neutron. Atoms of different elements have different numb

Nostrana [21]

Answer:

The correct option is;

A) 1 to 1.

Explanation:

A stab;e nuclei requires the presence of a neutron to accommodate the the protons repulsion forces within the nucleus. An increase in the number of protons should be accompanied by an even more instantaneous increase in the number of neutrons to balance the forces in the nucleus. If there is an excess of neutrons or a deficit in protons a state of unbalance exists in the nucleus, which results to nuclear instability.

Therefore, the ratio of neutrons to protons is an appropriate way in foretelling nuclear stability and a stable nuclei is known to have a proton to neutron ratio of 1:1 and the number of protons and neutrons in the stable nuclei are usually even numbers.

If 1/4 cups are in 1 serving jow many servings are in 4 cups

mote1985 [20]

Answer:

One serving is 1/4 cup therefore 1 cup would be 4 servings. Since we have 9 cups we would then multiply 9 x 4 and the answer would be 36 servings. You have a ratio of cups to serving, so 1/4 cup : 1 serving, or .

Ions are formed when atoms a) gain or lose protonsb) gain or lose electronsc) gain or lose neutrons d) each of these results in

lesya692 [45]

Answer:

b) Gain or lose electrons

Explanation:

An ion is an electrically charged particle. For an atom to be charged, it must have gained or lost electron in the process and therefore, it becomes an ion.

The loss or gain of electrons is what makes an atom charged and eventually becomes an ion.

A positively charged ion is one that has lost an electron and it is called a cation. In such an ion, the number of electrons are lesser than those of protons. This is why they are cations

A negatively charged ion is one that has gained electrons. They are called anions. In such an ion, the number of electrons are greater than that of protons.
