Answer:

Reliable knowledge is knowledge that has a high probablility of being true because its veracity has been justified by a reliable method. Reliable knowledge is sometimes called justified true belief, to distinguish reliable knowledge from belief that is false and unjustified or even true but unjustified.

What is the pH of a 900 mL solution containing 3.40 grams of hydrocyanic acid
Allushta [10]

Answer:

pH = 5.05

Explanation:

pH is derived from the concentration of hydronium ions in a solution. Hydrocyanic acid is HCN.

First, we shall figure out the moles of HCN:

\frac{3.4g}{27.03g/mol}  = 0.125786

If HCN was a strong acid:

HCN has a 1:1 ratio of H+ ions, the moles of H+ is also the same.

To find the molarity, we now divide by Liters. This gets us:

\frac{0.125786 moles}{0.9L} = 0.139762 M

Finally, we plug it into the definition of pH:

pH = -log[H^{+} ]

pH = -log(0.139762)

pH = 0.855

However, since HCN is a weak acid, it only partially dissociates. The K_a of HCN is 6.2 * 10^{-10}.

K_a = \frac{[H^+][A^-]}{[HA]}

We can use an ice table to determine that when x = H+,

K_a = \frac{x^2}{0.125786-x}

[H^+] = 8.83*10^{-6}

pH = -log[H^{+} ]

pH = -log(8.83 * 10^{-6} )

pH = 5.05

What motivated arrhenius to calculate how changes in carbon dioxide might affect the climate?
DerKrebs [107]
Arrhenius was seeking to understand the causes of ice ages. 
He was the first to use basic principles of  physical chemistry to calculate estimates of the extent to which increases in atmosphere carbon dioxide increases Earth's surface temperature through the Arrhenius effect. Arrhenius's paper was the first to quantify the contribution of carbon dioxide to the greenhouse effect and to speculate whether variations in the atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide have contributed to long-term variations in climate.

Which statement best describes how an electromagnetic motor works?
inn [45]

Answer:

Electrons are moved through a magnet, creating a current. That current interacts with a circuit, moving the conductor in the orientation of the field.

Explanation:

Electro magnetic fields are used to create electric current by the movement of electrons. When a coil of wire is wrapped around a magnet it pushes electrons and they flow through a magnet to create current. This current interacts with circuit to move conductor.

Which statement best compares the properties of compounds and elements that the compounds contain?
Delvig [45]
A compound is formed due to the chemical combination or chemical reaction between two or more elements. The elements forming a compound cannot be separated by physical means. The properties of the compound is different from the properties of the elements forming it.

Based on this, the answer would be:
They are different.
