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

hence, pH = 3 is 10 times more acidic than pH = 4

the volume of gas in a container was originally 3.24L, while at standard pressure 1.00 atm. what will the volume be if the press

Simora [160]

Hello!

To solve this problem, we will use the Boyle's Law, which describes how pressure changes when volume changes and vice-versa. The equation for this law is the following one, and we'll clear for V2:

$P1*V1=P2*V2 \\ \\ V2= \frac{P1*V1}{P2}= \frac{3,24 L * 1 atm}{1,20 atm}= 2,7 L$

So, the final volume after increasing the pressure would be 2,7 L. That means that volume decreases when the pressure increases

What is the difference between thermal energy, temperature, and heat

Rainbow [258]

Thermal energy is the energy that comes from heat. This heat is generated by the movement of tiny particles within an object. The faster these particles move, the more heat is generated.

Heat energy is the result of the movement of tiny particles called atoms, molecules or ions in solids, liquids and gases. Heat energy can be transferred from one object to another, and the transfer or flow due to the difference in temperature between the two objects is called heat.

The kinetic temperature is the variable needed for subjects like heat transfer, because it is the translational kinetic energy which leads to energy transfer from a hot area (larger kinetic temperature, higher molecular speeds) to a cold area (lower molecular speeds) in direct collisional transfer.
