Answer:

Explanation:

pH is defined as the negative logarithm of the concentration of hydrogen ions.

Thus,

pH = - log [H⁺]

Thus, from the formula, more the concentration of the hydrogen ions or more the acidic the solution is, the less is the pH value of the solution.

Thus, solution with pH = 3 will be more acidic than solution with pH =4

Thus, concentration of the [H⁺] when pH =3

3 = - log [H⁺]

[H⁺] = 10⁻³ M

For pH = 4, [H⁺] = 10⁻⁴ M

<u>hence, pH = 3 is 10 times more acidic than pH = 4</u>

The reaction 2PH3(g)+As2(g)⇌2AsH3(g)+P2(g) has Kp=2.9×10−5 at 873 K. At the same temperature, what is Kp for each of the followi

slavikrds [6]

Answer:

Part A

Kp = 3.4 x 10⁴

Part B

Kp = 2.4 x 10⁻¹⁴

Part C

Kp = 1.2 x 10⁹

Explanation:

2PH₃(g) + As₂(g) ⇌ 2 AsH₃(g) + P₂(g) Kp = 2.9 x 10⁻⁵

Kp = [AsH₃]²[P₂]/[PH₃]²[As] = 2.9 x 10⁻⁵

Part A

it is the inverse of the equilibrium given

Kp(A) = 1/ Kp = 1 / 2.9 x 10⁻⁵ = 3.4 x 10⁴

Part B

Is the equilibrium where the coefficients have been multiplied by 3,

Kp(B) = ( Kp )³ = ( 2.9 x 10⁻⁵ )³ = 2.4 x 10⁻¹⁴

Part C

This is the reverse equilibrium multipled by 2.

Kp(C) = ( 1/Kp)² = ( 1/ 2.9 x 10⁻⁵ )² = 1.2 x 10⁹

Which is responsible for the formation of rust on metals?(1 point)

Rainbow [258]

The correct answers about rusting, air pollution and products of water with rock are:

Option A. oxidation

Option D. Pollutants mix with air and water to make acid rain.

Option B. clay minerals and calcium carbonate

<h3>What is rusting?</h3>

Rusting is the process by which a metal especially reacts with oxygen in the atmosphere and water vapor to form a hydrated oxide of the metal known as hydrated iron (iii) oxide. This is known as rust.

The process is an oxidation process; option A.

<h3>How does air pollution impact chemical weathering?</h3>

Air pollution is the presence of substances in air known as pollutants which makes the air impure.

Air pollution impact chemical weathering as the pollutants mix with air and water to make acid rain which weathers rocks; option D.

<h3>What products are produced when water reacts with sodium in rocks?</h3>

The reaction of water with sodium in rocks result in the formation of clay minerals and calcium carbonate also as limestone, marble or chalk; option B.

In conclusion, the presence of pollutants in air results in acid rain and hence rock weathering.

The energy required to break existing chemical bonds in reactants is called the ______ energy.

mixer [17]

The energy required to break existing chemical bonds in reactants is called the activation energy.

<h3>What is activation energy?</h3>

Activation energy in chemistry is the energy required to initiate a chemical reaction.

Chemical reactions involve the breaking of chemical bonds in substances called reactants to form new substances called products.

The energy required to break the bond in the existing reactants thus elevating these substances to a state of high activation is known as activation energy.

Therefore, it can be said that energy required to break existing chemical bonds in reactants is called the activation energy.
