Answer:
superstition
Explanation:
Because there is no scientific reason behind it and no connection of it to science.
Answer: adding
Explanation:
Because it takes thermal energy to power it
Answer:
All liquid glow products depend on a chemical process known as CHEMILUMINESCENCE to produce their light. Chemiluminesence is a chemical reaction that causes a release of energy in the form of light. To produce this light the electrons in the chemicals become excited and rise to a higher energy level.
To utilise this process glowsticks contain two liquids; hydrogen peroxide and tert-butyl alcohol. When mixed together it is these liquids that create the glow. Fluorescent dyes are also used in the alcohol to alter the colour of the light emitted.
Explanation:
According to the reaction equation:
and by using ICE table:
CN- + H2O ↔ HCN + OH-
initial 0.08 0 0
change -X +X +X
Equ (0.08-X) X X
so from the equilibrium equation, we can get Ka expression
when Ka = [HCN] [OH-]/[CN-]
when Ka = Kw/Kb
= (1 x 10^-14) / (4.9 x 10^-10)
= 2 x 10^-5
So, by substitution:
2 x 10^-5 = X^2 / (0.08 - X)
X= 0.0013
∴ [OH] = X = 0.0013
∴ POH = -㏒[OH]
= -㏒0.0013
= 2.886
∴ PH = 14 - POH
= 14 - 2.886 = 11.11
