3. When the hydronium ion concentration of a solution is 1x10-4 M, What
rewona [7]

Answer:

pH = 4

Solution is acidic

Explanation:

Given data;

Hydronium ion concentration = 1 × 10⁻⁴ M

pH of solution = ?

Solution:

pH = -log [H₃O⁺]

pH = -log [ 1 × 10⁻⁴ ]

pH =  4

According to pH scale the pH 7 is neutral while the pH less than 7 is acidic and greater than 7 is basic. The given solution has pH 4 it means solution is acidic.

Aluminum reacts with sulfur gas to produce aluminum sulfide. a) What is the limiting reactant? What is the excess reagent? b) Ho
Sophie [7]

Answer:

a) Limiting: sulfur. Excess: aluminium.

b) 1.56g Al₂S₃.

c) 0.72g Al

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, the initial mass of both aluminium and sulfur are missing, therefore, one could assume they are 1.00 g for each one. Thus, by considering the undergoing chemical reaction turns out:

2Al(s)+3S_2(g)\rightarrow 2Al_2S_3(s)\\

a) Thus, considering the assumed mass (which could be changed based on the one you are given), the limiting reagent is identified as shown below:

n_S^{available}=1.00gS_2*\frac{1molS_2}{64gS_2} =0.0156molS_2\\n_S^{consumed\ by \ Al}=1.00gAl*\frac{1molAl}{27gAl}*\frac{3molS_2}{2molAl}=0.0556molS_2

Thereby, since there 1.00g of aluminium will consume 0.0554 mol of sulfur but there are just 0.0156 mol available, the limiting reagent is sulfur and the excess reagent is aluminium.

b) By stoichiometry, the produced grams of aluminium sulfide are:

m_{Al_2S_3}=0.0156molS_2*\frac{2molAl_2S_3}{3molS_2} *\frac{150gAl_2S_3}{1molAl_2S_3} =1.56gAl_2S_3

c) The leftover is computed as follows:

m_{Al}^{excess}=(0.0556-0.0156)molS_2*\frac{2molAl}{3molS_2}*\frac{27gAl}{1molAl} =0.72 gAl\\

NOTE: Remember I assumed the quantities, they could change based on those you are given, so the results might be different, but the procedure is quite the same.

Best regards.

Compare What do infrared technologies, fiber optic
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

ptic fiber communication and satellite communication are the leading technologies which are revolutionizing the world of telecommunications. Both technologies have their advantages and limitations which make them suitable for certain type of applications. This article will provide an overview of optic fiber and satellite communication technologies and present a comparison of the features and related issues.

Optic Fiber Communication

Optic Fiber communication transmits information by sending pulses of light (using laser) through an optic fiber. The low signal loss in optic fibers and high data rate of transmission systems, allow signals with high data rates (exceeding several Gbps) to travel over long distances (more than 100 km) without a need of repeater or amplifier. Moreover, using wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) allows a single fiber to carry multiple signals (upto 10 different signals) of multi-Gbps transmissions. Optic Fiber communication offers extremely high bandwidth, immunity to electromagnetic interference, non-existent delays and immunity from interception by external means. In the 1980s and 1990s, the continents were linked together using undersea optic fiber bringing about a paradigm shift in the global telecommunications.

These advancements in optic fiber communication has resulted in decrease of satellite communications for several types of communications. For instance, transmission between fixed locations or point-to-point communications, where large bandwidths are required (such as transoceanic telephone systems) are made through optic fiber instead of using satellite communication. Optic Fiber communication is also used to transmit telephone signals, Internet communication, LAN (Gigabit LAN) and cable television signals.

Satellite Communication

Satellite communications use artificial satellites as relays between a transmitter and a receiver at different locations on Earth. Satellite systems allow users to bypass typical carrier offices and to broadcast information to multiple locations. Communications satellites are used for radio, TV, telephone, Internet, military and other applications. There are more than 2,000 satellites around Earth’s orbit, being used for communication by both government and private organizations.

Communication Satellites are LOS (line-of-sight) microwave systems with a repeater. These satellites rotate around the earth with the speed of earth and are known as geostationary satellites. The limitations of antenna size also limits focusing capability making the coverage for a single satellite transmitter very large. This makes satellite communication ideal for TV and radio services as the signal has to flow from a single point to many points in a single direction. The large distance of satellites from the earth (about 22,300 miles) results in delays which adversely effects two-way communication like mobile conversations. Low earth orbit satellites can be used for two-way mobile communication because less power is required to reach those satellites.

1.26 * 10^4 + 2.50 * 10^4 in sceintific notation
eduard
Hello! I can help you with this. First, convert them into it’s written out standard form. 10^4 is 10,000. 10,00 * 1.26 is 12,600. 10,000 * 2.5 is 25,000. 12,600 + 25,000 = 37,600 or 3.76 * 10^4 in scientific notation. The answer in scientific notation is 3.76 * 10^4.
