Answer:

This question is not complete but the completed question is below

Acids naturally present in food are safe to eat because they usually are

A. Weak

B. concentrated

C. dilute

D. strong

The correct option is A.

Explanation:

Acids that are naturally found in food are organic acids. Organic acids are generally known to be weak acids. An acid is a substance that produces hydrogen ion or hydroxonium ion when dissolved in water.

A weak acid however ionizes partially (not releasing all its possible hydrogen ions) in water. Weak acids have pH that are close to neutral (pH 7) and hence are safe for consumption.

What is the molarity of a solution containing 8.0 moles of solute in 120mL of solution?

Nataliya [291]

Answer:
200/3 M which is approximately equal to 66.6667 M

Explanation:
Molarity is defined as the number of moles of solute per liter of solution.

It can be calculated as follows:
$molarity = \frac{number of moles of solute}{liters of solution}$

We are given that:
number of moles of solute = 8 moles
volume of solution = 120 ml = 0.12 liters

Substitute with the givens in the above equation to get the molarity as follows:
molarity = $\frac{8}{0.12} = \frac{200}{3} = 66.6667 M$

Hope this helps :)

What volume of a 3.0 M stock solution of H2SO4 is needed to prepare 2.8 L of a 1.6 M H2SO4 solution?

Georgia [21]

Use M1V1 = M2V2 to solve
3(V1) = 2.8 * 1.6
3(V1) = 4.48
V1 = 1.493 L of stock solution

Andru [333]

Answer:

pH = 2.46

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, since this neutralization reaction may be assumed to occur in a 1:1 mole ratio between the base and the strong acid, it is possible to write the following moles and volume-concentrations relationship for the equivalence point:

$n_{acid}=n_{base}=n_{salt}$
