A scientist finds that a sample of matter contains three types of atoms. The sample can be any of the following, except:
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

The correct answer is C. element

Explanation:

The sample cannot be an element because an element - or <em>elemental substance</em> - cannot be decomposed into simpler substances. Thus, it cannot be composed by differents types of atoms. For example, an element is carbon (C).

As the sample contains <u>three types of atoms</u>, it can be a compound, a molecule or a mixture, because they can be composed by different types of atoms - of different chemical elements. For example, the sample could contain the element carbon (C) combined with other elements, for example oxygen (O) or hydrogen (H), amoing others.

What is the hydroxide [OH-] concentration of a solution that has a pOH of 4.90? 14 14 1.26 x10-5 1.26 x10, -5 9.1 9.1 7.94 x 104
polet [3.4K]

Answer:

The hydroxide [OH-] concentration of the solution is 1.26*10⁻⁵ M.

Explanation:

The pOH (or potential OH) is a measure of the basicity or alkalinity of a solution.

POH indicates the concentration of hydroxyl ions [OH-] present in a solution and is defined as the negative logarithm of the activity of hydroxide ions (that is, the concentration of OH- ions):

pOH= -log [OH-]

A solution has a pOH of 4.90. Replacing in the definition of pOH:

4.90= -log [OH-]

Solving:

-4.90= log [OH-]

1.26*10⁻⁵ M= [OH-]

<u><em>The hydroxide [OH-] concentration of the solution is 1.26*10⁻⁵ M.</em></u>
