Answer: pOH = 9.88

Explanation:pH or pOH is the measure of acidity or alkalinity of a solution.

pH is calculated by taking negative logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration.

Acids have pH ranging from 1 to 6.9, bases have pH ranging from 7.1 to 14 and neutral solutions have pH equal to 7.

$pH=-\log [H^+]$

$pOH=-\log[OH^-]$

Putting in the values:

$pOH=-\log[1.3\times 10^{-10}]$

$pOH=9.88$

$pH+pOH=9.88$

$pH=14-9.88=4.12$

Thus as pH is less than 7 the solution is acidic and pOH is 9.88.

The chemical equation is Mg(s) + O2(g) → MgO(s)

vredina [299]

Answer:

The magnesium will burn until consumed entirely. There is much more oxygen available in the atmosphere than needed to consume the magnesium. Thus the magnesium is the limiting reactant because it determines the amount of product formed.

Explanation:

Mg produces less amount of MgO than O2; therefore Mg is the limiting reagent. O2 produces more amount of MgO than Mg; therefore O2 is the excess reagent.

What is the pH of 0.0001 M NaOH

kow [346]

Well. NaOH is a base. That's the first thing you need to watch for.
So to find the pOH, you take -log(.0001)
that would be 4. So now you have the pOH and <u>you still need to find the pH
</u>To find pH from pOH, you take 14(the maximum pH,sorta)-pOH(in this case 4)
14-4=10 The pH of NaOH is 10

Match the following descriptions with the correct polysaccharide, note if you answer any part of this question incorrectly a sig

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

Glycogen. Cellulose. Amylose. Cellulose. Amylopetin and Glycogen. Amylopetin and Cellulose.

Explanation:

Glycogen is the form that glucose is stored in human body.

Cellulose is the structural part of plant cell walls and human cannot digest it.

Amylose is the polysaccharide linked mainly by the the bonds of $\alpha$ 1,4 glycosidic.

Cellulose is an unbranched polysaccharide linked mainly by the bonds of $\beta$ 1,4 glycosidic.

Amylopetin and Glycogen are branched polysaccharides linked by the bonds of $\alpha$ 1,4 glycosidic and $\alpha$ 1,6 glycosidic.

Amylopetin and Cellulose are mainly stored in plants.

What would be the volume in millilitres of a blood sample of 2.15 microliters (ul)?

Zanzabum

2.15 x 10⁻³mL

Explanation:

Given parameter:

Volume of blood sample in uL = 2.15uL

Conversion uL → mL

micro- and milli- are both prefixes of sub-units.

liter is a unit of volume of a substance.

micro - is 10⁻⁶

milli- is of the order 10⁻³

The problem is converting from micro to milli:

if we multiply 10⁻⁶ by 10³ we would have our milli;

1000uL = 1mL

2.15uL : 2.15uL x $\frac{1mL}{1000uL}$ = 2.15 x 10⁻³mL
