It would depend on the type of acid.. If you were to swallow Hydrochloric Acid you would likely have very bad pain in your abdominal, difficulty breathing, bad chest pain, fever, bad pain in your mouth, pain in your throat, and it's also possible to be vomiting blood.

The compound methyl butanoate smells like apples. Its percent composition is 58.8% C, 9.9% H, and 31.4% O. What’s the empirical

blsea [12.9K]

To find the empirical formula you would first need to find the moles of each element:

58.8g/ 12.0g = 4.9 mol C

9.9g/ 1.0g = 9.9 mol H

31.4g/ 16.0g = 1.96 O

Then you divide by the smallest number of moles of each:

4.9/1.96 = 2.5

9.9/1.96 = 6

1.96/1.96 = 1

Since there is 2.5, you find the least number that makes each moles a whole number which is 2.

So the empirical formula is C5H12O2.

A chemist takes 50-gram sample of sulfur powder that has a melting point of 115.2 °C. What is the melting point of a 100-gram sa

JulijaS [17]

I would say that B is the correct answer which means that the melting point would be intensive or that no matter how large or small the sample of the sulphur is, it will have a consistent melting temperature or of 115.2 degrees C.

When the pH of a solution changes from a pH of 5 to a pH of 3, the hydronium ion concentration is

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer : The correct option is, (D) 100 times the original content.

Explanation :

As we are given the pH of the solution change. Now we have to calculate the ratio of the hydronium ion concentration at pH = 5 and pH = 3

As we know that,

$pH=-\log [H_3O^+]$

The hydronium ion concentration at pH = 5.

$5=-\log [H_3O^+]$

$[H_3O^+]=1\times 10^{-5}M$ ..............(1)

The hydronium ion concentration at pH = 3.

$3=-\log [H_3O^+]$

$[H_3O^+]=1\times 10^{-3}M$ ................(2)

By dividing the equation 1 and 2 we get the ratio of the hydronium ion concentration.

$\frac{[H_3O^+]_{original}}{[H_3O^+]_{final}}=\frac{1\times 10^{-5}}{1\times 10^{-3}}=\frac{1}{100}$

$100\times [H_3O^+]_{original}=[H_3O^+]_{final}$

From this we conclude that when the pH of a solution changes from a pH of 5 to a pH of 3, the hydronium ion concentration is 100 times the original content.

Hence, the correct option is, (D) 100 times the original content.

Why are the average atomic masses of some of the elements in parentheses?

Pie

Because its only representing the most stable isotope of that element but its considered the atomic mass and not average atomic mass
