Answer:

The range of [H⁺] is from 2.51 x 10⁻⁶ M to 6.31 x 10⁻⁶ M,

Explanation:

To answer this problem we need to keep in mind the <u>definition of pH</u>:

  • pH = -log [H⁺]

So now we <u>calculate [H⁺] using a pH value of 5.2 and of 5.6</u>:

  • 5.2 = -log [H⁺]

-5.2 = log [H⁺]

10^{-5.2} = [H⁺]

6.31 x 10⁻⁶ M = [H⁺]

  • 5.6 = -log [H⁺]

-5.6 = log [H⁺]

10^{-5.6} = [H⁺]

2.51 x 10⁻⁶ M = [H⁺]

If I want to lower the volume (loudness) I can do which of the following. Select all that apply.
nirvana33 [79]

Sound travels in waves and the height of the wave is the loudness of the sound.

To decrease sound, you need to make the waves not so high, so you can

- decrease the amplitude

- decrease the height of the crest   (lower the top of the wave down)

- increase the height of the trough  (bring the bottom of the wave up)

It's all about getting the wave to be closer to the center, to not be so high and low, but to be flatter.

How to know how many valence electrons are in an element
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

Hope it helped

Explanation:

For neutral atoms, the number of valence electrons is equal to the atom's main group number. The main group number for an element can be found from its column on the periodic table. For example, carbon is in group 4 and has 4 valence electrons. Oxygen is in group 6 and has 6 valence electrons.
