Click on the graph to show the correct relationship between altitude and boiling point
2 answers:
Explanation:
This graph shows that an increase in altitude causes a relative decrease in boiling point temperatures. The two variables, it can be said, are inversely proportional.
This is because, with an increase in altitude, there is a proportionate decrease in air pressure. This means the vapor pressure of the fluid becomes strong enough, at a relatively lower temperature, to overcome the air pressure and for the liquid to boil.
This is why water can even boil without inputting heat into it but rather by just reducing the ambient air pressure.

The question is incomplete, complete question is :
Determine the pH of an HF solution of each of the following concentrations. In which cases can you not make the simplifying assumption that x is small? ( for HF is
.)
[HF] = 0.280 M
Express your answer to two decimal places.
Answer:
The pH of an 0.280 M HF solution is 1.87.
Explanation:3
Initial concentration if HF = c = 0.280 M
Dissociation constant of the HF =
Initially
c 0 0
At equilibrium :
(c-x) x x
The expression of disassociation constant is given as:
Solving for x, we get:
x = 0.01346 M
So, the concentration of hydrogen ion at equilibrium is :
The pH of the solution is ;
The pH of an 0.280 M HF solution is 1.87.
