Answer:

pH = 3 (though the option is missing)

Explanation:

We have a solution with a concentration of the hydrogen ion, [H⁺] = 0.001 mol/L = 0.001 M. We can calculate the pH using its definition.

pH = -log [H⁺]

pH = -log 0.001

pH = 3

Since the pH < 7, the solution is acid. Other way to recognize that a solution is acid is when [H⁺] > 10⁻⁷ M at 25°C.

How many atoms are in 123 g of calcium

Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

Molar mass of Ca = 40 g / mol , given 123 g Ca is 123/40= 3.075 moles,

1 mole = 6.022 * 10^23 atoms, so 3.075 moles Ca= 18.51*10^23 atoms

Why do scientists think there is an undiscovered carbon sink somewhere?

dedylja [7]

The major carbon sources (reservoirs that release more carbon than absorbed) are: deforestation and fossil fuels

The major carbon sinks (reservoirs that absorb more carbon than released) are:
soil, oceans and plants.

When scientists calculate the amount of carbon dioxide is returned to the atmosphere vs the released the amount of carbon, a large amount is unaccounted for and the total does not add up. This is why scientists believe there is an undiscovered carbon sink somewhere.

Which of the following species has the greatest

Licemer1 [7]

Answer: Option (3) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When there is a negative charge on an atom then we add the charge with the number of electrons. Whereas when there is a positive charge on an atom then we subtract the charge from the number of electrons.

Atomic number of chlorine is 17. So, number of electrons present in $Cl^{-}$ is 17 + 1 = 18 electrons.

Atomic number of cobalt is 27. So, number of electrons present in $Co^{4+}$ is 27 - 4 = 23 electrons.

Atomic number of iron is 26. So, number of electrons present in $Fe^{2+}$ is 26 - 2 = 24 electrons.

Atomic number of vanadium is 23. So, number of electrons present in V is 23 electrons.

Atomic number of scandium is 21. So, number of electrons present in $Sc^{2-}$ is 21 + 2 = 23 electrons.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given species, $Fe^{2+}$ has the greatest number of electrons.
