Blue litmus paper turns red in the presence of an acidic solution/compound. An acid is any substance with a pH level less than 7.

Ammonia is a moderately basic solution. It has a pH greater than 7. Therefore, it will not turn blue litmus paper red.

Baking soda is also a basic substance with a pH greater than 7. It also will not turn blue litmus paper red.

Distilled water is a neutral solution. It has a pH of 7, and it will not react with the litmus paper to change its color.

That leaves us with vinegar. Vinegar is an acid with a pH of less than 7. It will turn blue litmus paper red.

Which ONE of the following is an oxidation–reduction reaction? A) PbCO3(s) + 2 HNO3(aq) ––––> Pb(NO3)2(aq) + CO2(g) + H2O(l)
sveta [45]

Answer:

E) C₂H₄(g) + H₂(g) ⇒ C₂H₆(g)

Explanation:

Which ONE of the following is an oxidation–reduction reaction?

A) PbCO₃(s) + 2 HNO₃(aq) ⇒ Pb(NO₃)₂(aq) + CO₂(g) + H₂O(l). NO. All the elements keep the same oxidation numbers.

B) Na₂O(s) + H₂O(l) ⇒ 2 NaOH(aq). NO. All the elements keep the same oxidation numbers.

C) SO₃(g) + H₂O(l) ⇒ H₂SO₄(aq). NO. All the elements keep the same oxidation numbers.

D) CO₂(g) + H₂O(l) ⇒ H₂CO₃(aq). NO. All the elements keep the same oxidation numbers.

E) C₂H₄(g) + H₂(g) ⇒ C₂H₆(g). YES. <u>C is reduced</u> and <u>H is oxidized</u>.

An aluminum block has a density of 2.70 g/mL. If the mass of the block is 24.60 g, find the volume of the substance.
harina [27]

Volume of a substance can be determined by dividing mass of the substance by its density.

That can be mathematical shown as:

Density=Mass/Volume

So, Volume=Mass/Density

Here mass of the substance given as 24.60 g

Whereas density of the substance is 2.70 g/mL

So,

Volume=Mass/Density

=24.6/2.7

=9.1 mL

So volume of the substance is 9.1 mL.

Explain how the cell membrane controls the movement of materials into and out of the cell ?
sukhopar [10]
It's called simple diffusion, the small molecules without charges such as oxygen and carbon dioxide can flow through a plasma membrane without assistance and without expending energy. Other substances such as proteins, glucose and charged particles called ions cannot pass through the selectively permeable membrane.
