Answer:
pH is an index of how many protons, or hydrogen ions (H+) are dissolved and free in a solution. The pH scale goes from 0 to 14. A fluid with a pH of 7 is neutral. Below 7, it is acidic; above 7, it is alkaline.
The more below or above 7 a solution is, the more acidic or alkaline it is. The scale is not linear—a drop from pH 8.2 to 8.1 indicates a 30 percent increase in acidity, or concentration of hydrogen ions; a drop from 8.1 to 7.9 indicates a 150 percent increase in acidity. Bottom line: Small-sounding changes in ocean pH are actually quite large and definitely in the direction of becoming less alkaline, which is the same as becoming more acidic.
If you think about it, we use descriptive words like this all the time. A person who stands 5’5” tall and weighs 300 pounds isn’t thin. If he loses 100 pounds, he still won’t be thin, but he will be thinner than he was before he went on the diet. (And we are more likely to comment that he’s looking trimmer than to say he’s not as fat as he used to be.)
<u>Answer:</u> The final temperature of the copper is 95°C.
<u>Explanation:</u>
To calculate the final temperature for the given amount of heat absorbed, we use the equation:

Q = heat absorbed = +133 J (heat is added to the system)
m = mass of copper = 5.00 g
c = specific heat capacity of copper = 0.38 J/g ° C


Putting values in above equation, we get:

Hence, the final temperature of the copper is 95°C.
A polar molecule is when the arrangement of the atoms in molecules are unequal where one end of the molecule has a positive charge while the other end has a negative charge. Examples of a polar molecule are water, ammonia, hydrogen sulfide and sulfur dioxide. The opposite is called a nonpolar molecule.
The balanced chemical reaction for this would be written as:
2Mg + O2 = 2MgO
We use this reaction and the amount of the reactant given to calculate for the amount of magnesium oxide that is produced. We do as follows:
1.5 g Mg (1 mol / 24.31 g) ( 2 mol MgO / 2 mol Mg ) (40.30 g /1 mol ) = 2.49 g MgO produced
