<u><em>Answer:</em></u>The compound ammonia given by fish is alkaline
<u><em>Explanation:</em></u><u>We can classify elements/compounds based on their pH values into three types:</u>
<u>acids:</u> these are compounds having pH value lower than 7
<u>neutral:</u> these are compounds having pH value equal to 7
<u>alkalies:</u> these are compounds having pH values higher than 7
This is shown in the attached image
We are given that the pH of the compound ammonia generated by the fish is
above 7.
According to the above explanation, compound ammonia would be an alkaline compound.
Hope this helps :)</span>
Answer:
Higher pH (more alkaline)
Explanation:
The pH scale measures on a scale of 0 to 14 the acidity or basicness of whatever is being tested.
The lower the pH, the more acidic it will be. Acids are scaled as being anything having a pH of lower than 7.
The higher the pH, the more alkaline (or basic) it will be. Bases are scaled as being anything having a pH of higher than 7.
Substances that are at a pH of 7 are considered neutral, like water (H2O)
Answer:
pOH = 0.3
Explanation:
As KOH is a strong base, the molar concentration of OH⁻ is equal to the molar concentration of the solution. That means that in this case:
With that information in mind we can<u> calculate the pOH </u>by using the following formula:
Fe3N2, also known as Iron (II) nitride, is an ionic compound.
Ionic compounds are compounds that consists of metals and non-metals bonded with ionic bonds. The metal ion gives up electron(s) to the non-metals.
Since iron is a metal and nitrogen is an non-metal, the bond they would form would be an ionic bond. Iron gives up 2 electrons to form iron(II) ion, while nitrogen gains 3 electrons to form nitride ion. Since one iron cannot let a nitrogen gain 3 electrons, so in the compound, there would be 3 iron (ii) ions that has given up 6 electrons in total while 2 nitride ions have gained 6 electrons in total.
Gas -- move very independently as compared to a liquid, for instance.
Plasma -- related to a gas although it has positively charged ions and negatively charged electrons.
