Briefly describe how a potentiometric pHmeter works. (Hint: Describe how the pH meter
liq [111]

Answer:

A general instrument, which is used to determine the concentration of hydrogen ion within the aqueous solution is known as a pH meter. The meter helps in determining the alkalinity or acidity, which is articulated in the form of pH. It is also called a potentiometric pH meter as it helps in finding the variation in electrical potential between a reference electrode and a pH electrode. This electrical potential variation is associated with the pH of the solution.  

The potentiometric pH meter comprises a pair of electrodes and a basic electronic amplifier, some may even comprise a combination electrode and some sort of display that demonstrates pH units. The potentiometric pH meter generally exhibits a reference electrode or a combination electrode, and a glass electrode. The probes or electrodes are administered within a solution whose pH values are needed to be determined.

How are we made from star debris? What does this mean? Explain
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

How star stuff got to Earth

When it has exhausted its supply of hydrogen, it can die in a violent explostion, called a nova. The explosion of a massive star, called a supernova, can be billions of times as bright as the Sun , according to "Supernova," (World Book, Inc., 2005). Such a stellar explosion throws a large cloud of dust and gas into space, with the amount and composition of the material expelled varying depending on the type of supernova.

A supernova reaches its peak brightness a few days after it first occurred, during which time it may outshine an entire galaxy of stars. The dead star then continues to shine intensely for several weeks before gradually fading from view, according to "Supernova."

The material from a supernova eventually disperses throughout interstellar space. The oldest stars almost exclusively consisted of hydrogen and helium, with oxygen and the rest of the heavy elements in the universe later coming from supernova explosions, according to "Cosmic Collisions: The Hubble Atlas of Merging Galaxies," (Springer, 2009).

"It's a well-tested theory," Impey said. "We know that stars make heavy elements, and late in their lives, they eject gas into the medium between stars so it can be part of subsequent stars and planets (and people)."

Cosmic connections

So, all life on Earth and the atoms in our bodies were created in the furnace of now-long-dead stars, he said.

In 2002, music artist Moby released "We Are All Made of Stars," explaining during a press interview that his lyrics were inspired by quantum physics. "On a basic quantum level, all the matter in the universe is essentially made up of stardust," he said.

While a certain isotope decays, it emits photons. What kind of decay is happening?
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]
The correct answer is Gamma decay. It happens after beta and alpha decay because what's left after those two can enter a new process of gamma decay. This releases gamma rays which is a more complex term for the photons that you mentioned before. These rays can be dangerous for humans so care not to get caught in them.

How much heat is required to raise the temperature of 65.8 grams of water from 31.5ºC to 46.9ºC?
vodomira [7]

Answer: 1,013.32 cal × 4.18 J/cal = 4,235.68 J

Explanation:

1) Data:

Water ⇒ C = 1 cal/g°C

m = 65.8 g

Ti = 31.5°C

Tf = 36.9°C

Heat, Q = ?

2) Formula:

Q = mCΔT

3) Calculations:

Q = 65.8g × 1 cal/g°C × (46.9°C - 31.5°C) = 1,013.2 cal

4) You can convert from calories to Joules using the conversion factor:

1 cal = 4.18 J

⇒ 1,013.32 cal × 4.18 J/cal = 4,235.68 J
