Predict which of the following metals reacts with hydrochloric acid.

A coke has a ph of 3.5. this means that it has an excess of _______ ions and would be called a(n) _____.

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

PH (potential of hydrogen) is a numeric scale that is used to show the acidity or basicity of an aqueous solution. It tells how acidic or alkaline a substance is . The pH values ranges from 0 to 14, such that acidic solutions have values between 1 to 6.9 with most acidic having a pH value of 1 and those that are basic have values from 7.1 to 14, with most acidic having a value of 14. Acidic compounds contain replaceable hydrogen ions while basic compounds contain hrdroxyl ions. In this case, a coke has a pH of 3.5 (acidic) which means that it has an excess of hydrogen ions (H+) and would be called an acid.

Which statement correctly compares the masses of subatomic particles in an atom such as carbon?

iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

C- A proton has about the same mass as a neutron .

Explanation:

In an atom such as a carbon atom, the masses of the proton and neutrons are the same.

The mass of the electrons is very negligible.

Protons are the positively charged particles in an atom
Neutrons do not carry any charges
Both protons and neutrons have similar masses.
They contribute the bulk of the mass of the atom.
The electrons carry negative charges and they have negligible masses.

The mass of protons and neutrons are similar.

An endergonic reaction with a Δh and Δs can be changed into an exergonic reaction.

zheka24 [161]

Full question:

This question is incomplete, here it is completed:

An endergonic reaction with a ______ ∆H and a ______ ∆S can be changed into an exergonic reaction by decreasing the temperature.

Option A: negative, positive

Option B: negative, negative

Option C: positive, positive

Option D: positive, negative

Answer:

Option B: negative, negative

Explanation:

The change in free energy (ΔG) of a system for a constant-temperature process is

ΔG = ΔH - TΔS

free energy is the energy available to do work. Thus, if a particular reaction is accompanied by a release of usable energy (that is, ΔG is negative), it is said to be exergonic. On the other hand, if a reaction consumes energy (that is, ΔG is positive), it is said to be endergonic.

Looking at the equation, we can see that if ΔH is negative and ΔS is negative, then ΔG will be negative only when TΔS is smaller in magnitude than ΔH. This condition is met when T is small.

ΔG = ΔH - TΔS

- -

This means that the reaction proceeds spontaneously at low temperatures. At high temperatures, the reverse reaction becomes spontaneous. An example of that would be the following reaction:

NH₃(g) + HCl(g) → NH₄Cl(s)

While heating up a 25 gram sample of concrete (specific heat = 0.210-cal/g°C), your initial tempărature is room temperature (25°

Lana71 [14]

Answer:

Final temperature = 83.1 °C

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of concrete = 25 g

Specific heat capacity = 0.210 cal/g. °C

Initial temperature = 25°C

Calories gain = 305 cal

Final temperature = ?

Solution:

Q = m. c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

ΔT = T2 - T1

305 cal = 25 g ×0.210 cal/g.°C × T2 - 25°C

305 cal = 5.25cal/°C × T2 - 25°C

305 cal / 5.25cal/°C = T2 - 25°C

58.1 °C = T2 - 25°C

T2 = 58.1 °C + 25°C

T2 = 83.1 °C
