Luke and Sian want to plant a vegetable garden in their yard. A soil testing kit measures the soil pH at 5.0, but the lettuce th

Answer:

So, Luke and Sian has to increase the pH of the soil by adding base to it.

Explanation:

The pH is defined as the negative logarithm of the hydrogen ion concentration in their aqueous solution.

$pH=-\log[H^+]$

With increase in hydrogen ion concentration the pH value decreases.
With decrease in hydrogen ion concentration the pH value increases.

The pH of the soil after testing it on a kit comes out be 5.0, but they both need pH of the soil to 6.5.

Comparison of pH of soil:

= 5.0 < 6.5

= High hydrogen ion concentration > High hydrogen ion concentration

So, Luke and Sian has to increase the pH of the soil by adding base .Doing so will decrease the hydrogen ion concentration in the soil (where as addition of acid lower the pH of soil).

Object A at 40ºC and object B at 80ºC are placed in contact with each other. Which statement describes the heat flow between the

Arada [10]

By the second law of thermodynamics:
Heat can not spontaneously flow from cold regions to hot regions without external work being performed on a system.
Heat transfer is the passage of thermal energy from a hot ( t B = 80° C ) to a colder body ( t A = 40° C ).
Answer: B ) Heat flows from object B to object A.

What is the oxidation number of chlorine in HClO4?

Elza [17]

CIO4-=-1

CI=4O=-1

O has a 2- oxidation change so

CI+4(-2)=-1

CI+(-8)=-1

CI=-1+8=7

So the oxidation number of chlorine is 7 in this case
