Answer:

Weight is the measure of the amount of force acting on a mass due to acceleration due to gravity.Mass is the scalar quantity and weight is a vector quantity. The unit of mass is kg while the unit of weight is N. Mass can't be changed by changing place, weight can be changed by changing the place.

What volume will a balloon occupy at 1.0 atm, if the balloon has a volume of 7.6 l at 3.8 atm?

sergejj [24]

From the Boyle's law, it is clear that volume is inversely proportional to pressure. Thus it is prudent to say that, P1V1=P2V2
From the question above,
P1=1atm
P2=3.8atm
V1=?
V2=7.6L
Hence, 1*V1=3.8atm*7.6L
V1=28.88L

Write the dissociation of hydrosulfuric acid

Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

Explanation:

Hydrosulfuric acid (H_2S) is considered a 'weak acid." It dissociates in water according to this reaction: H_2 S(aq) + H_2O(t) HS^-(aq) + H_3O^+(aq) k_a = 9 times 10^-8 Hydroiodic acid (HI) is considered a "strong acid".

fish give off the compound ammonia which has a pH above 7 to which class of compounds does ammonia belong

jasenka [17]

Answer:
The compound ammonia given by fish is alkaline

Explanation:
We can classify elements/compounds based on their pH values into three types:
acids: these are compounds having pH value lower than 7
neutral: these are compounds having pH value equal to 7
alkalies: these are compounds having pH values higher than 7

This is shown in the attached image

We are given that the pH of the compound ammonia generated by the fish is above 7.
According to the above explanation, compound ammonia would be an alkaline compound.

Hope this helps :)
