A student uses an indicator to measure the pH of a solution. The indicator shows a pH of 7. What must be true of this solution?

A pH of 7 is known as "natural"

A pH below 7 is an acid

A pH above 7 is a base

Acids give up hydrogen ions, shown as H+
Bases accept H+, hydrogen ions.

Equilibrium is when a chemical reaction doesn't favor the reactants or products and can go in reverse.
pH of 7 are related to Equilibrium.

With the info I have given you, it's obviously not one of the last 2 you listed.

pH measures the alkalinity and acidity of a solution by the Hydrogen ions, H+. Therefore, the solution has to have Hydrogen ions to react/be measured by the pH paper.

Therefore, your answer is the 2nd statement.
The solution has equal amounts of hydronium ions and hydroxide ions.

Answer:

The solution has equal amounts of hydronium ions and hydroxide ions.

Explanation:

From the very beginning it is clear that answer choices 3 and 4 are incorrect, as a pH of 7 means it is neutral.

The pH of anything being 7 (neutral) means it is neither an acid (1-6) nor a base (8-14).

This essentially levels things out meaning that there will be an equal amount.

(a) 1200 rad/s

The angular acceleration of the rotor is given by:

$\alpha = \frac{\omega_f - \omega_i}{t}$

where we have

$\alpha = -80.0 rad/s^2$ is the angular acceleration (negative since the rotor is slowing down)

$\omega_f$ is the final angular speed

$\omega_i = 2000 rad/s$ is the initial angular speed

t = 10.0 s is the time interval

Solving for $\omega_f$ , we find the final angular speed after 10.0 s:

$\omega_f = \omega_i + \alpha t = 2000 rad/s + (-80.0 rad/s^2)(10.0 s)=1200 rad/s$

(b) 25 s

We can calculate the time needed for the rotor to come to rest, by using again the same formula:

$\alpha = \frac{\omega_f - \omega_i}{t}$

If we re-arrange it for t, we get:

$t = \frac{\omega_f - \omega_i}{\alpha}$

where here we have

$\omega_i = 2000 rad/s$ is the initial angular speed

$\omega_f=0$ is the final angular speed

$\alpha = -80.0 rad/s^2$ is the angular acceleration

Solving the equation,

$t=\frac{0-2000 rad/s}{-80.0 rad/s^2}=25 s$
