Is sand macromolecule or network solid? Thank you

Chemistry

A macromolecule is a molecule with lots and lots of atoms. (i.e. protein, nucleic acid...)
A network solid is <span>is a chemical compound where the atoms are "bonded by covalent bonds in a continuous </span>network<span> extending throughout the material."
A single grain of sand consists of, on average, </span><span>~50,000,000,000,000,000,000 atoms.
That's A LOT.
However, these atoms do bond in network covalent bonds.
But that means it's a covalent network solid.
The short answer is that sand is both a </span><span>macromolecular substance as well as a covalent network solid, so I would go with it's macromolecular but you can interpret that the way you want.</span>

What is the pH of a substance that has a hydrogen ion concentration of<br> 8.8x10^(-5) M? *
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

The pH of the substance is 4,06.

Explanation:

The pH indicates the acidity or basicity of a substance. PH values between 0 and less than 7 indicate acidic solutions, 7 neutral and greater than 7 to 14 basic. It is calculated as:

pH = -log (H +)

pH= -log (8.8x10^-5)

<em>pH=4,06</em>
