Limestone is calcium carbonate Ca(Co3) it's dissociation equation is as follows: Ca(CO3) <----> Ca+2 + CO3-2 

but the solubility is very small in the presence of acid by LeChatlier's Principle you can shift to the right by adding acid 

H+ + CO3-2 <-----> H+CO3- (the bicarbonate ion which is really soluble) 

The system will pull more and more limestone out into solution as acid is added and neutralize the acid coming from the rain.

Technetium (Tc; Z = 43) is a synthetic element used as a radioactive tracer in medical studies. A Tc atom emits a beta particle
Sedaia [141]

Question in incomplete, complete question is:

Technetium (Tc; Z = 43) is a synthetic element used as a radioactive tracer in medical studies. A Tc atom emits a beta particle (electron) with a kinetic energy (Ek) of 4.71\times 10^{-15}J . What is the de Broglie wavelength of this electron (Ek = ½mv²)?

Answer:

6.762\times 10^{-12} m is the de Broglie wavelength of this electron.

Explanation:

To calculate the wavelength of a particle, we use the equation given by De-Broglie's wavelength, which is:

\lambda=\frac{h}{\sqrt{2mE_k}}

where,

= De-Broglie's wavelength = ?

h = Planck's constant = 6.624\times 10^{-34}Js

m = mass of beta particle = 9.1094\times 10^{-31} kg

E_k = kinetic energy of the particle = 4.71\times 10^{-15}J

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\lambda =\frac{6.624\times 10^{-34}Js}{\sqrt{2\times 9.1094\times 10^{-31} kg\times 4.71\times 10^{-15}J}}

\lambda = 6.762\times 10^{-12} m

6.762\times 10^{-12} m is the de Broglie wavelength of this electron.

Uses of baking powder​
NARA [144]

Baking powder is used to increase the volume and lighten the texture of baked goods. It works by releasing carbon dioxide gas into a batter or dough through an acid–base reaction, causing bubbles in the wet mixture to expand and thus leavening the mixture.
