Answer:

  • <em>The solution that has the highest concentration of hydroxide ions is </em><u>d. pH = 12.59.</u>

Explanation:

You can solve this question using just some chemical facts:

  1. pH is a measure of acidity or alkalinity: the higher the pH the lower the acidity and the higher the alkalinity.
  2. The higher the concentration of hydroxide ions the lower the acidity or the higher the alkalinity of the solution, this is the higher the pH.

Hence, since you are asked to state the solution with the highest concentration of hydroxide ions, you just pick the highest pH. This is the option d, pH = 12.59.

These mathematical relations are used to find the exact concentrations of hydroxide ions:

  • pH + pOH = 14 ⇒ pOH = 14 - pH

  • pOH = - log [OH⁻] ⇒ [OH^-]=10^{-pOH}

Then, you can follow these calculations:

Solution    pH        pOH                            [OH⁻]

a.               3.21       14 - 3.21 = 10.79        antilogarithm of 10.79 = 1.6 × 10⁻¹¹

b.               7.00      14 - 7.00 = 7.00        antilogarithm of 7.00 = 10⁻⁷

c.                7.93      14 - 7.93 = 6.07        antilogarithm of 6.07 = 8.5 × 10⁻⁷

d.               12.59     14 - 12.59 = 1.41        antilogarithm of 1.41 = 0.039

e.               9.82      14 - 9.82 = 4.18        antilogarithm of 4.18 = 6.6 × 10⁻⁵

From which you see that the highest concentration of hydroxide ions is for pH = 12.59.

Answer:

<u><em></em></u>

  • <u><em>C) How much energy was added to the substance to increase molecule motion? </em></u>

Explanation:

<em>The most relevant question to ask regarding this change</em> must take into account the physical knowledge about matter.

When matter changes from<em> liquid </em>state to <em>gaseous</em> state, a physical change called evaporation, the particles (molecules or atoms) of the <em>pure substance </em>will separate from each other, take up more space and move faster.

<em>Condensation</em> is the opposite to evaporation, thus the option A) is not the most relevant question.

<em>The charge of the particles</em> does not change; so the option B) is not relevant at all.

The particles should gain energy from the surroundings to <em>increase</em> their <em>motion</em> (kinetic energy) when they pass from liquid state, where they move slower, to gas state, where they move faster. Hence, the option<em> C), How much energy was added to the substance to increase molecule motion?</em> , is totally relevant.

Since this is an increase in the <em>kinetic energy of the molecules</em>, the option D) is not relevant.

A 1.5L intraveneous (IV) solution contains 919 grams glucose (C6H12O6). What is the molarity of this solution?
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

3.4 M

Explanation:

M = grams/molar mass = ans./volume(L)

M = 919/180 = ans./1.5

Find the final pressure of gas at 150k. If the pressure of the gas is 210 kPa at 120 K.
katrin [286]
Since the volume is constant,
p1/t = p2/ t
210/120 = p2/150
p2= 262.5kpa
