Answer : The correct option is, (C) $OH^-$ ions as the only negative ions in solution

Explanation :

According to the Arrhenius concept, an acid is a substance that ionizes in the water to give hydronium ion or hydrogen ion $(H^+)$ and a bases is a substance that ionizes in the water to give hydroxide ion $(OH^-)$ .

A sample of $Ca(OH)_2$ is considered to be an Arrhenius base because when it dissolves in the water to yield $OH^-$ ions as the only negative ions in solution.

Hence, the correct option is, (C)

The pressure in a car tire is 178 kPa at 37°C. After a long drive, the pressure is 275 kPa. What is

dimaraw [331]

Answer:

T₂ = 478.93 K

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial pressure, P₁ = 178 kPa

Initial temperature, T₁ = 37°C = 310 K

Final pressure, P₂ = 275 kPa

We need to find the new temp of the air in the tire, assuming the volume is constant. We know that,

$\dfrac{P_1}{T_1}=\dfrac{P_2}{T_2}\\\\T_2=\dfrac{P_2T_1}{P_1}\\\\T_2=\dfrac{275\times 310}{178}\\\\T_2=478.93 K$

So, the new temperature is equal to 478.93 K.

According to Archimedes' principle, the mass of a floating object equals the mass of the fluid displaced by the object. A 150-lb

julsineya [31]

Answer:

The density of the swimmer is 0.0342 lbm/in3.

This value makes sense as the density of the body is very similar to the water.

Explanation:

If the swimmers is floating, the weight of the swimmer must be equal to the upward buoyant force.

We can express the weight force as the product of density and volume of the swimmer.

Then

$\rho_{swimmer}*V_{swimmer}=\rho_{water}*V_{water_displaced}\\\\\rho_{swimmer}*V_{swimmer}=\rho_{water}*0.95**V_{swimmer}\\\\\rho_{swimmer}=0.95*\rho_{water}\\\\\rho_{swimmer}=0.95*0.036 lbm/in3\\\\\rho_{swimmer}=0.0342lbm/in3$

It makes sense as the density of the body is very similar to the water.
