Answer:
Is the fixed number of water molecules present in one formula unit of a substance
Explanation:
When copper sulphate is heated in a china dish, the blue colomed crystal changes to a white powder due to the removal of molecules of water of crystallization
Answer:
C) It will accelerate.
Explanation:
According to Newton’s second law of motion, when an object is acted on by an unbalanced force, it will accelerate.
An unbalanced force will change the speed or direction (or both) of an object. A change in speed and/or direction is acceleration.
A) is wrong. The object will stop moving only if there is a balanced force in the opposite direction.
B) is wrong. The object will decrease speed only if the unbalanced force has a component opposite to the direction of motion.
d) is wrong. The object will increase speed only if the unbalanced force has a component in the direction of motion.
From the calculations, the pH of the buffer is 3.1.
<h3>What is the pH of the buffer solution?</h3>
The Henderson-Hasselbach equation comes in handy when we deal with the pH of a buffer solution. From that equation;
pH = pKa + log[(salt/acid]
Amount of the salt = 25/1000 * 0.50 M = 0.0125 moles
Amount of the acid = 75/1000 * 1.00 M = 0.075 moles
Total volume = ( 25 + 75)/1000 = 0.1 L
Molarity of salt = 0.0125 moles/0.1 L = 0.125 M
Molarity of the acid = 0.075 moles/0.1 L = 0.75 M
Given that the pKa of lactic acid is 3.86
pH = 3.86 + log( 0.125/0.75)
pH = 3.1

Answer:
No
Explanation:
The pH scale is a scale graduated from 0-14 which shows the degree of acidity of alkalinity of a substance. The pH scale is graduated in such a way that 0-6.9 indicates acidity, 7.0 indicate a neutral substance, while a pH of 8-14 indicates alkalinity respectively.
There are three main definitions of acids/bases
- Arrhenius definition
-Brownstead-Lowry definition
-Lewis definition
Arrhenius explains acids as any substance that produces hydrogen ions as its only positive ion in solution while a base produces hydroxide ions as its only negative ion in solution. The pH scale is based on corresponding values of pH derived from aqueous solutions of these substances.
However, not all acids/bases produces hydrogen or hydroxide ions in solution. Brownstead-Lowry definition of acids and Lewis definition of acids could be extended to nonaqueous media where the pH can not be measured as there are no hydrogen or hydroxide ions present in the solution.
This implies that pH measurement may not apply to acids/bases in the all the categories of acids/bases hence it can not be utilized for all acids and bases.
Arrhenius - sodium carbonate
Brownstead-Lowry - concentrated HF
Lewis acid - AlCl3
