Sorry I didn't see this before...
Okay, I see two major problems with this student's experiment:
1) Nitric acid Won't Dissolve in Methane
Nitric acid is what's called a mineral acid. That means it is inorganic (it doesn't contain carbon) and dissolves in water.
Methane is an organic molecule (it contains carbon). It literally cannot dissolve nitric acid. Here's why:
For nitric acid (HNO3) to dissolve into a solvent, that solvent must be polar. It must have a charge to pull the positively charged Hydrogen off of the Oxygen. Methane has no charge, since its carbon and hydrogens have nearly perfect covalent bonds. Thus it cannot dissolve nitric acid. There will be no solution. That leads to the next problem:
2) He's Not actually Measuring a Solution
He's picking up the pH of the pure nitric acid. Since it didn't dissolve, what's left isn't a solution—it's like mixing oil and water. He has groups of methane and groups of nitric acid. Since methane is perfectly neutral (neither acid nor base), the electronic instrument is only picking up the extremely acidic nitric acid. There's no point to what he's doing.
Does that help?
Answer:
The speed of the skier after moving 100 m up the slope are of V= 25.23 m/s.
Explanation:
F= 280 N
m= 80 kg
α= 12º
μ= 0.15
d= 100m
g= 9,8 m/s²
N= m*g*sin(α)
N= 163 Newtons
Fr= μ * N
Fr= 24.45 Newtons
∑F= m*a
a= (280N - 24.5N) / 80kg
a= 3.19 m/s²
d= a * t² / 2
t=√(2*d/a)
t= 7.91 sec
V= a* t
V= 3.19 m/s² * 7.91 s
V= 25.23 m/s
Answer:
Answer:Neurons communicate through an electrochemical process. Sensory receptors interact with stimuli such as light, sound, temperature, and pain which is transformed into a code that is carried to the brain by a chain of neurons. Then systems of neurons in the brain interpret this information.

Answer:
108 km
Explanation:
The conversion factor between meters and feet is
1 m = 3.28 ft
So the second altitude, written in feet, can be rewritten in meters as
or in kilometers,
the first altitude in kilometers is
so the difference between the two altitudes is
