The equation for the pH of a substance is pH = –log[H+], where H+ is the concentration of hydrogen ions. A basic solution has a

pH of 11.2. An acidic solution has a pH of 2.4. What is the approximate difference in the concentration of hydrogen ions between the two solutions?

Answer:

0.003981 . . . . moles per liter

Step-by-step explanation:

The concentration of H+ ions in the acid will be ...

10^(-2.4) ≈ 0.003981 . . . . moles per liter

The concentration of H+ ions in the base will be ...

10^-11.2 ≈ 0.000 000 000 006310 . . . . moles per liter

To a few decimal places, the difference is ...

0.003981 . . . . moles per liter

_____

The two numbers differ by about 9 orders of magnitude, so the value of the difference between the larger and the smaller is essentially the value of the larger number. The smaller one, by comparison, can be considered to be zero (for subtraction purposes).

A 25 ft. ladder resting against the side of a building forms a right triangle with the ground. The bottom of the ladder is 7 ft.
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

The correct answer is 24

Step-by-step explanation:

to solve this you will need to use the pathagreom theorum

a^{2}+b^{2}=c^{2}

A= one side lenth

B= the secons side lenth

C= hypotnuse

It is helpfull to draw out the situation

you know that the latter is 25 ft, that is your hypotnuse

you also know that the 7 ft away from the base of the building is one of the side lenths, lets call it side a

so plug the numbers into the equation

7^2 + b^2 = 25 ^2

you leave b^2 alone because that is the side you are trying to find

now square 7 and 25 but leave b^2 alone

49 + b^2 = 625

now subtract 49 from both sides

b^2 = 576

now to get rid of the square of b you have to do the opposite and square root both sides removing the square of the B and giving you the answer of..........

B= 24

Hope this helped!! I tryed to explain it as simpil as possiable

The life expectancy (in hours) of an electric bulb is normally distributed with a mean of 5000 and a standard deviation of 1000.
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

P(z>1.3) = 0.9032

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given:

Mean = 5000

Standard deviation = 1000

x = 6300

P(x>6300)=?

z-score =?

z-score = x- mean/standard deviation

z-score = 6300 - 5000/1000

z- score = 1300/1000

z-score = 1.3

So, P(x>6300) = P(z>1.3)

Looking at the z-probability distribution table and finding value:

P(z>1.3) = 0.9032

So, P(z>1.3) = 0.9032

Plot the x-intercept(s), y-intercept, vertex, and axis of symmetry for the function below.
telo118 [61]
<span>g(x) = x^2 + 4x + 3

y-intercept:  let x=0.  Then y=3.  y-intercept is (0,3).

roots:  set g(x) = 0 and solve for x.  x=-1 and x=-3.

                                                                                       -4
axis of symmetry:  find x = -b / (2a), which here is x = ----- = -2

4) 8(-2 + 2n) + 3n = 40 +5n
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

use the distributive property to distribute the 8

-16+16n+3n=40+5n

-16+19n=40+5n

-16=40+5n-19n

-16=40-14n

-14n+40= -16

-14n= -16-40

-14n= -56

n= -56/-14

n= 4
