Answer:
The particles of the medium just vibrate in place.
Explanation:
As they vibrate, they pass the energy of the disturbance to the particles next to them, which pass the energy to the particles next to them, and so on. Particles of the medium don't actually travel along with the wave.
Answer:
pH = 12.65
Explanation:
From the given information:
number of moles =mass in gram / molar mass
number of moles of KOH = mass of KOH / molar mass of KOH
number of moles of KOH = 0.251 g / 56.1 g/mol = 0.004474 mol
For solution :
number of moles = Concentration × volume
concetration = number of moles/ volume
concetration = 0.004474 mol / 0.100 L
concetration = 0.04474 M
We know that 1 moles KOH result into 1 mole OH⁻ ions
Therefore, Molarity of OH⁻ = 0.04474 M
Now,
pOH = -log[OH⁻]
pOH = -log (0.04474) M
pOH = 1.35
Similarly,
pH + pOH = 14
pH = 14 - pOH
pH = 14 - 1.35
pH = 12.65
