Consider 0.10 M solutions of acetic acid, ammonia, hydrochloric acid, and sodium hydroxide. Rank these solutions in order of inc

reasing pH (starting from the lowest, and ending with the highest pH value). Please also make a statement, whether each solution is an acidic or a basic one, and provide an explanation why.

Answer:

HCl < CH₃COOH < NH₃ < NaOH

Explanation:

Given compounds:

Acetic acid: CH₃COOH

Ammonia; NH₃

Hydrochloric acid: HCl

Sodium hydroxide: NaOH

All the solutions are of the same molarity which is 0.1M. We need to see how these compounds dissociate to form solutions in order to establish their pH value:

For Acetic acid;

            CH₃COOH + H₂O ⇄ H₃O⁺ + CH₃COO⁻

   Acetic acid is a weak acid and it ionizes slightly in solutions. It would have a pH close to 7

For Ammonia;

       NH₃ + H₂O ⇄ NH₄⁺ + OH⁻

   Ammonia is a weak base and it ionizes slightly in solutions. It sets up an equilibrium in the process. It's would be slightly above 7

For HCl:

               HCl + H₂O → H₃O⁺ + Cl⁻

HCl is a strong acid and ionizes completely in solutions. It has a very low pH

For NaOH:

          NaOH → Na⁺ + OH⁻

  NaOH ionizes also completely in solutions and it breaks down into sodium and hydroxide ions. It is a strong base and it would have a high PH value.

                 HCl < CH₃COOH < NH₃ < NaOH

This is the trend of increasing pH

Which choice best describes what would happen if a cube with a density of 0.2 g/mL were placed in a container of water?
Andrew [12]

Answer:

A. It would float with about 80% of the cube below the surface of the water and 20% above the surface.

Explanation:

The choice that best describes what happens to cube of the given density value is that it would float with about 80% of the cube would be below the surface of the water and 20% above the surface.

Density is the mass per unit volume of a substance. The more mass a body has relative to volume, the great it's density. In short, density is directly proportional to mass and inversely related to volume.

The density of water is 1g/mL

If the density of the cube were to be the same with that of water, the substance will just mix up with water .

Here the density is less than that of water.

The density is 0.2g/mL

Therefore, 20% will stay afloat and 80% will be below the surface of the water.

A biochemical engineer isolates a bacterial gene fragment and dissolves a 10.0-mg sample in enough water to make 30.0 mL of solu
Novay_Z [31]

The molar mass of the gene fragment is 19182 g/mol.

What is osmotic pressure ?

Osmotic pressure is the minimum pressure which needs to be applied to a solution to prevent the inward flow of its pure solvent across a semipermeable membrane. It is also defined as the measure of the tendency of a solution to take in a pure solvent by osmosis. Potential osmotic pressure is the maximum osmotic pressure that could develop in a solution if it were separated from its pure solvent by a semipermeable membrane.

We employ the osmotic pressure equation to determine the solute's concentration, which is:

π = iMRT

Using the values in the equation above, we obtain:  19182 g/mol.

What are the two types of collisions? What is the difference between them? Types: a. Types: b. Compare and contrast the two type
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

The two types of collisions are :

Type a)

<u>Elastic collision</u>

Type b)

<u>Inelastic collision</u>

Explanation:

Collision : It is the event when two bodies collide with each other for small period of time.

During collision , the bodies exert force to each other.

Example :

When boxer hits with punches .

When bat hits the ball in cricket match.

So, collision is short duration interaction of two objects. When the objects collides , there is  change in their velocity.

All collision follow law of conservation of momentum . Their type is decided by , whether they follow conservation of energy also.

<u>Compare and contrast the two types</u>

a) Elastic collision : Those collision in which no loss or gain of kinetic energy will occur. They follow conservation of kinetic energy. Example : ideal gaseous molecule

b) Inelastic collision : Those collision in which Change in kinetic energy will occur. They do not follow conservation of kinetic energy.Almost all conservation are inelastic.

Here Kinetic energy get converted into other form of energy.
