Which molecule will form a solution with a very low pH? H3PO4 H2O NaOH KOH

Chemistry

Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A solution which has more number of hydrogen ions will be acidic in nature and its pH will be less than 7. Whereas a solution which has more number of hydroxide ions will be basic in nature and thus, its pH will be greater than 7.

Also,        pH = -log \frac{1}{H^{+}}

Therefore, a low pH means pH will be very less than 7.

The given molecules will dissociate as follows.

      H_{3}PO_{4} \rightleftharpoons 3H^{+} + PO^{3-}_{4}

H_{2}O being a neutral molecule will not dissociate and pH of water is 7. Hence, it is a neutral molecule.

      NaOH \rightleftharpoons Na^{+} + OH^{-}

      KOH \rightleftharpoons K^{+} + OH^{-}

So, we can see that H_{3}PO_{4} gives maximum number of hydrogen ions. Therefore, we can conclude that molecule of H_{3}PO_{4} will form a solution with a very low pH.

Calculate the MASS if the density is 2.34 g/mL and the volume is 12.50 mL.
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

<h2>mass = 29.25 g</h2>

Explanation:

The denisty of a substance can be found by using the formula

Density =  \frac{mass}{volume}

Making mass the subject we have

<h3>mass = Density × volume</h3>

From the question

Density = 2.34 g/mL

volume = 12.50 mL

Substitute the values into the above formula and solve for the mass

That's

mass = 2.34 × 12.50

We have the final answer as

<h3>mass = 29.25 g</h3>

Hope this helps you

The half-life of radium-226 is 1590 years. if a sample contains 100 mg, how many mg will remain after 1000 years?
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

a=64.7mg

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, we need to remember that for the required time for a radioactive nuclide as radium-226 to decrease to one half its initial amount we are talking about its half-life. Furthermore, the amount of remaining radioactive material as a function of the half-lives is computed as follows:

a=a_0(\frac{1}{2} )^{\frac{t}{t_{1/2}} }

Therefore, for an initial amount of 100 mg with a half-life of 1590 years, after 1000 years, we have:

a=100mg(\frac{1}{2} )^{\frac{1000years}{1590years} }\\\\a=64.7mg

Best regards.

An experiment requires that enough C3H8O be used to yield of oxygen .
blsea [12.9K]

Answer: So if you had 570 cm of ribbon, then 570%2F8.5=67.05 which means that about 67 students can do the experiment (round down to the nearest whole number).

Explanation: If you had 8.5 cm of ribbon, then only 8.5%2F8.5=1 student can do the experiment. If you had 17 cm of ribbon, then 17%2F8.5=2 students can do the experiment.
