Answer:

The amount of water that evaporates from the earth is approximately equal to the amount that falls as precipitation.

Explanation:

Water evaporation is critical to climate because it is directly related to precipitation formation. Water that evaporates from rivers, lakes, oceans and even our bodies helps to form rain. This occurs when the temperature cools. Under these climatic conditions, water vapor returns to its liquid form (condensation) and falls through rainfall. The amount of water evaporated is basically equal to the amount of water that comes back to land in precipitation.

What the difference of meaning between strong and weak Base. gave one example for each of them

kicyunya [14]

1.Strong basses dissociates into ions almost 100%.

But weak basses partially dissociates into ions.

2.Strong basses has pH value smaller but closer to 14 and weak basses has pH value greater but cloaer to 7.

3.strong basses ate highly reactive whereas weak basses are less reactive.

Cân bằng phương trình Mg+HCl->MgCl2+H2 bằng phương pháp thăng bằng

nignag [31]

quá trình oxi hóa: Mg0 -> Mg2+ + 2e-

quá trình khử: 2H+ + 2e- -> H2 (cần 2 H+ để tạo 1 H2)

----> chỉ cần thêm 2 vào trước HCl (vì H+ là do HCl cung cấp)

----> Mg + 2HCl -> MgCl2 + H2

The pOH of a solution of KOH is 11.30. What is the [H*] for this solution?

Sloan [31]

Answer: The concentration of hydrogen ions for this solution is $1.99 \times 10^{-3}$ .

Explanation:

Given: pOH = 11.30

The relation between pH and pOH is as follows.

pH + pOH = 14

pH + 11.30 = 14

pH = 14 - 11.30

= 2.7

Also, pH is the negative logarithm of concentration of hydrogen ions.

$pH = - log [H^{+}]$

Substitute the values into above formula as follows.

$pH = -log [H^{+}]\\2.7 = -log [H^{+}]\\conc. of H^{+} = 1.99 \times 10^{-3}$

Thus, we can conclude that the concentration of hydrogen ions for this solution is $1.99 \times 10^{-3}$ .

Calculate the ph of a 0.005 m solution of potassium oxide k2o

Alecsey [184]

First, we have to see how K2O behaves when it is dissolved in water:

K2O + H20 = 2 KOH

According to reaction K2O has base properties, so it forms a hydroxide in water.
For the reaction next relation follows:

c(KOH) : c(K2O) = 1 : 2

So,

c(KOH)= 2 x c(K2O)= 2 x 0.005 = 0.01 M = c(OH⁻)

Now we can calculate pH:

pOH= -log c(OH⁻) = -log 0.01 = 2

pH= 14-2 = 12
