Answer:

Proxima Centuri is 9 orders of magnitude further from New York compared to Perth

Explanation:

Distance of Proxima Centuri to New York = 4 × 10^16 meters

Distance of Proxima Centuri to Perth = 11000 miles

Since 1 mile = 1609 meters, distance to Perth in meters = 11000 × 1609

Distance to Perth = 17699000 = 1.7699 × 10^7 meters

Order of magnitude of the distances of Proxima Centuri to New York and Perth = 10^16/10^7

Order of magnitude = 10^9

Therefore, Proxima Centuri is 9 orders of magnitude further from New York compared to Perth.

What is the pH of a solution with a 3.8 × 10−4 M hydronium ion concentration?
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

3.4

Explanation:

The pH scale is used to express the acidity or basicity of a solution.

  • If the pH < 7, the solution is acid.
  • If the pH = 7, the solution is neutral.
  • If the pH > 7, the solution is basic.

Given the hydronium ion concentration [H₃O⁺] = 3.8 × 10⁻⁴ M, we can calculate the pH using the following expression.

pH = -log [H₃O⁺]

pH = -log 3.8 × 10⁻⁴

pH = 3.4

This solution is acid.

A sample of pure oxalic acid (H2C2O4.2H2O) weighs 0.2000 g and requires 30.12 ml of KOH solution for
ValentinkaMS [17]

 The molarity  of KOH  is  0.1055 M

 <u><em> calculation</em></u>

Step  1: write  the  equation  for reaction between H₂C₂O₄.2H₂O  and KOH

H₂C₂O₄.2H₂O  + 2 KOH   →    K₂C₂O₄ +4 H₂O

step 2: find the moles  of H₂C₂O₄.2H₂O

moles = mass÷ molar  mass

from  periodic  table the  molar mass H₂C₂O₄.2H₂O= (1 x2) +(12 x2) +(16 x4)  + 2(18)=126 g/mol

 = 0.2000 g ÷ 126 g/mol =0.00159  moles


step 3: use the  mole  ratio  to  calculate the moles of KOH

H₂C₂O₄.2H₂O : KOH  is 1:2

therefore the  moles of KOH  =0.00159 x 2 = 0.00318  moles

step 4: find molarity of KOH

molarity = moles/volume in liters

volume in liters = 30.12/1000=0.03012 L

molarity  is therefore = 0.00318/0.03012 =0.1055 M
