8 0

Claudius Ptolemy is known to as a writer, mathematician, astronomer, geographer, astrologer. His hypothesis in regards to the solar system was that he used a mathematical model of the Almagest to represent the universe as a set of spheres. From there he created epicycles to calculate different dimensions in the solar system that he had created. For example, he calculated that the radius of the sun is about 20,000 times that of the earth.

In the other hand, Johannes Kepler was a German mathematician, astronomer, and astrologer. He believed that based on his religion the sun was the source of movement in the solar system. In addition, he believed that the sun caused a change in motion depending on how close a planet is to the sun.

An acidic solution of pH 5 has<br> TIMES as many hydrogen ions (H+) as does a solution of pH 6.

Artyom0805 [142]

The difference in concentration of hydrogen Ions between pH5 and pH6 is - x 10.

The pH scale is a scale or measure to find the strength of acidity or the basic nature of a solution or substance. pH 1 is acidic and pH 14 is the most basic on the scale.

The concentration of hydrogen ions is inversely related to its pH
More hydrogen ions present, the lower the pH
The fewer hydrogen ions, the higher the pH We know,

pH = -log(H+) then,

=> 5 = -log (H+)

=> H+ = $10^{-5}$ (for pH = 5)

=> pH = -log(H+)

=> 6 = -log (H+)

=> H+ = $10^{-6}$ (for pH = 6)

Thus, The substance with the lower pH (5) has 10 times as many hydrogen ions per volume of water.
