Answer:
X = 4
Explanation:
Start 2800
End 175
175 = 2800x(0.5)^X
175/2800 = 0.5^X
0.0625 = 0.5^X
log(0.5 x) = log(0.0625)
x · log(0.5) = log(0.0625)
-0.301x = -1.204
x = -1.204/-0.301
x = 4
Answer:
-195.8 °C = 77.35 K = -320.44 °F
Explanation:
Temperature is commonly measured in following three scales;
1) Kelvin
2) Fahrenheit<span>
3) </span>Celsius<span>
Other scales are Rankine, Romer, Newton, Delisle e.t.c
Temperature given is -195.8 </span>°C. Degree Celsius is related to Kelvin and Fahrenheit as follow,
Celcius to Kelvin;
K = °C + 273.15
So,
K = -195.8 + 273.15
K = 77.35
Celcius to Fahrenheit;
°F = °C × 9/5 + 32
So,
°F = -195.8 × 9/5 + 32
°F = -320.44
When the reaction equation is:
CaSO3(s) → CaO(s) + SO2(g)
we can see that the molar ratio between CaSO3 & SO2 is 1:1 so, we need to find first the moles SO2.
to get the moles of SO2 we are going to use the ideal gas equation:
PV = nRT
when P is the pressure = 1.1 atm
and V is the volume = 14.5 L
n is the moles' number (which we need to calculate)
R ideal gas constant = 0.0821
and T is the temperature in Kelvin = 12.5 + 273 = 285.5 K
so, by substitution:
1.1 * 14.5 L = n * 0.0821 * 285.5
∴ n = 1.1 * 14.5 / (0.0821*285.5)
= 0.68 moles SO2
∴ moles CaSO3 = 0.68 moles
so we can easily get the mass of CaSO3:
when mass = moles * molar mass
and we know that the molar mass of CaSO3= 40 + 32 + 16 * 3 = 120 g/mol
∴ mass = 0.68 moles* 120 g/mol = 81.6 g
The H+ concentration in the lake has increased as a result of the acid rain.
The original pH of the lake was 7, which mean the water is neutral, but due to the acid rain, it drops to 5. This means, that the water has become acidic and how have more hydrogen ion. The H+ concentration in the lake has 100 times compares with its original pH.
