Answer:

5.7

Explanation:

The pH can be calculated by:

pH = -log[H⁺]

Where [H⁺] is the concentration of hydrogen ions. The pH is a way to identify if the solution is an acid or a base. When pH is equal to 7, the solution is neutral, when it is less than 7, it is acid, and when it is larger than 7, it's a base.

So, for the acid solution given, [H⁺] = 2.0x10⁻⁶ M

pH = -log(2.0x10⁻⁶)

pH = 5.7

Lelechka [254]

Answer:

Presence of water molecules

Explanation:

Temperature decreases with an increase in altitude. At sufficiently high altitudes, the air is much colder than the air on the surface of the Earth. Water vapor has a low density and is capable to rise until it gets into a medium with a significantly low temperature and pressure to condense and produce water droplets out of water vapor. Those droplets then form clouds.

Determine the oxidation states of the elements in the compounds listed. None of the oxygen-containing compounds are peroxides or

Ahat [919]

Answer :

Oxidation number or oxidation state : It represent the number of electrons lost or gained by the atoms of an element in a compound.

Oxidation numbers are generally written with the sign (+) and (-) first and then the magnitude.

Rules for Oxidation Numbers are :

The oxidation number of a free element is always zero.
The oxidation number of a monatomic ion equals the charge of the ion.
The oxidation number of Hydrogen (H) is +1, but it is -1 in when combined with less electronegative elements.
The oxidation number of oxygen (O) in compounds is usually -2.
The oxidation number of a Group 17 element in a binary compound is -1.
The sum of the oxidation numbers of all of the atoms in a neutral compound is zero.
The sum of the oxidation numbers in a polyatomic ion is equal to the charge of the ion.

Now we have to determine the oxidation state of the elements in the compound.
