Answer:

The hydroxide ions decrease.

Explanation:

I got it right on the quiz. This is what I saw. Read this, "Adding water to an acid or base will change its pH. Water is mostly water molecules so adding water to an acid or base reduces the concentration of ions in the solution. When an acidic solution is diluted with water the concentration of H + ions decreases and the pH of the solution increases towards 7."

Hope this helps! Tell me if this is wrong just incase.

Answer:

decrease or stay the same idk but i'm pretty sure its decrease

Explanation:

When an acid dissolves in a solution like water the hydrogen ions increase

When a base dissolves in a solution the hydroxide ions increase

it is not the first one from the evidence shown above

it is not the last one because hydroxide could not just disappear well maybe if you waited for 1,000 years or if you added so much acid there was no water left but they simply say added to water

<u>the reason i think its </u><u>decrease instead of stay the same</u><u> is because as the hydrogen ions increase shouldn't the hydroxide ions decrease since an acid is acidic and that can dissolve metals.</u>

have a nice day!

Which molecules are pure elements?
Elenna [48]
Well none since molecules are a group of two or more atoms electrically bonded with one another. However, there are gases that does not naturally bond due to their stability and can be found in nature as pure elements. But these are not considered as molecules.

(By the way, these gases are the noble gases that can be found on the last column of the periodic table)

dangina [55]

Answer:The volume increases by 11%

Explanation:

When the pressure is decreased, the volume must definitely increase, to maintain the same pressure, the temperature must then also be increased as we see in the question. The volume was increased just as the pressure decreased and the temperature had to be increased to maintain a constant pressure. We have applied the general gas equation in solving the problem.

#1: A material has a density of 8.9 g/cm^3. You have six cubic centimeters of the substance. What is the material’s mass in gram
sveta [45]
<span>The density of a material = mass/ volume From the question, volume = 6 cm^3. Since the density = 8.9 g/cm^3 We have that 8.9 = mass/ 6 So mass = 8.9 * 6 = 53.4 So it follows that our mass = 53.4g. Hence option D which is 53g.</span>
