Answer:

3.51

Explanation:

Before any sodium hydroxide has been added, the pH is that of the aqueous hydrofluoric acid solution.

HF is a weak acid that dissociates according to the following equation.

HF(aq) ⇄ H⁺(aq) + F⁻(aq)      Ka = 6.76 × 10⁻⁴

We can find [H⁺] using the following expression.

[H⁺] = √(Ca × Ka)

where

Ca: concentration of the acid

Ka: acid dissociation constant

[H⁺] = √(Ca × Ka)

[H⁺] = √(0.458 × 6.76 × 10⁻⁴)

[H⁺] = 3.10 × 10⁻⁴ M

The pH is:

pH = -log [H⁺]

pH = -log 3.10 × 10⁻⁴ = 3.51

Answer:

Convection, and boundaries

Explanation:

In this lab, you modeled how plates move. The plates that make up Earth’s lithosphere move because of convection . You also saw how plates interact with each other. The interactions between plates form plate boundaries of which there are three main types.

Does sodium (Na) and argon (Ar) on the periodic table have similar properties? Explain in terms of location on the periodic tabl
iVinArrow [24]

Sodium (Na) and Argon (Ar) on the periodic table does not have similar properties.

PERIODIC TABLE:

  • Periodic table is the organized table that showcases the position of elements. The periodic table is organized into groups and periods.

  • Groups of the periodic table is in a vertical format labeled 1 - 7 while the period is in a horizontal format labeled 1 - 7.

  • Elements in the same group have the same number of valence electrons and hence, possess similar chemical properties.

  • Sodium (Na) belongs to group 1 while argon is a noble gas, hence, they are not in the same group of the periodic table and cannot have same properties.

denpristay [2]
The building with incandescent light bulbs would have higher energy bills because less than 10% of the bulb is used for light while the rest is given off as heat. Fluorescent light bulbs use ¼ as much energy and provide the same amount of light.
