Answer:

The sun maintains its spherical shape is due to the radially symmetrical nature of the gravitational force.

On the other hand, the sun maintains its size and shape due to the external pressure of fusion energy due to the force of gravity. There is a stable balance between the gas pressure that is directed outward and the force of gravity that is directed inward.

What is a scientific explanation for a range of hypotheses and observations supported by testing

worty [1.4K]

It verifies the significant relationships of the observed and hypothesized variables in the study.

Furthermore, the authors utilize and make use of the scientific method in order to have clear basis and evidence for their investigations. Research method is always used to answer every scientific inquiry and in gaining evidential data or knowledge. The scientific method has the following process or at least undergoes the process of
1. Observation
2. Hypothesis
3. Experimentation
4. Interpretation of data
5. Evaluating the data
6. Passing and recording the data

These steps are crucial and the empirical data that these scientists obtain are very important to keep that is why research paper, thesis and dissertations exists.

Using the equation, C5H12 + 8O2 Imported Asset 5CO2 + 6H2O, if 2 moles of pentane (C5H12) were supplied, and an unlimited amount

Kamila [148]

12 moles of water H₂O are produced from the combustion of pentane.

Explanation:

We have the following combustion of pentane (C₅H₁₂):

C₅H₁₂ + 8 O₂ → 5 CO₂ + 6 H₂O

Knowing the chemical reaction we devise the following reasoning:

if 1 moles of pentane C₅H₁₂ produces 6 moles of water H₂O

then 2 moles of pentane C₅H₁₂ produces X moles of water H₂O

X = (2 × 6) / 1 = 12 moles of water H₂O

Which of the following possess the greatest concentration of hydroxide ions?

jek_recluse [69]

Answer : The correct option is (d) a solution of 0.10 M NaOH

Explanation :

(a) a solution of pH 3.0

First we have to calculate the pOH.

$pH+pOH=14\\\\pOH=14-pH\\\\pOH=14-3.0=11$

Now we have to calculate the $OH^-$ concentration.

$pOH=-\log [OH^-]$

$11=-\log [OH^-]$

$[OH^-]=1.0\times 10^{-11}M$

Thus, the $OH^-$ concentration is, $1.0\times 10^{-11}M$

(b) a solution of 0.10 M $NH_3$

As we know that 1 mole of $NH_3$ is a weak base. So, in a solution it will not dissociates completely.

So, the $OH^-$ concentration will be less than 0.10 M

(c) a solution with a pOH of 12.

We have to calculate the $OH^-$ concentration.

$pOH=-\log [OH^-]$

$12=-\log [OH^-]$

$[OH^-]=1.0\times 10^{-12}M$

Thus, the $OH^-$ concentration is, $1.0\times 10^{-12}M$

(d) a solution of 0.10 M NaOH

As we know that $NaOH$ is a strong base. So, it dissociates to give $Na^+$ ion and $OH^-$ ion.

So, 0.10 M of $NaOH$ in a solution dissociates to give 0.10 M of $Na^+$ ion and 0.10 M of $OH^-$ ion.

Thus, the $OH^-$ concentration is, 0.10 M

(e) a $1\times 10^{-4}M$ solution of $HNO_2$

As we know that 1 mole of $HNO_2$ in a solution dissociates to give 1 mole of $H^+$ ion and 1 mole of $NO_2^-$ ion.

So, $1\times 10^{-4}M$ of $HNO_2$ in a solution dissociates to give $1\times 10^{-4}M$ of $H^+$ ion and $1\times 10^{-4}M$ of $NO_2^-$ ion.

The concentration of $H^+$ ion is $1\times 10^{-4}M$

First we have to calculate the pH.

$pH=-\log [H^+]$

$pH=-\log (1.0\times 10^{-4})$

$pH=4$

Now we have to calculate the pOH.

$pH+pOH=14\\\\pOH=14-pH\\\\pOH=14-4=10$

Now we have to calculate the $OH^-$ concentration.

$pOH=-\log [OH^-]$

$10=-\log [OH^-]$

$[OH^-]=1.0\times 10^{-10}M$

Thus, the $OH^-$ concentration is, $1.0\times 10^{-10}M$

From this we conclude that, a solution of 0.10 M NaOH possess the greatest concentration of hydroxide ions.

Hence, the correct option is (d)

Review the equation below. 2KClO3 mc012-1.jpg 2KCl + 3O2 How many moles of oxygen are produced when 2 mol of potassium chlorate

Vlada [557]

Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 KClO₃ = 2 KCl + 3 O₂
 ↓ ↓

2 mole KClO₃ ----------> 3 mole O₂
2 mole KClO₃ ----------> ?

KClO₃ = 2 * 3 / 2

KClO₃ = 6 / 2

= 3 moles de KClO₃

hope this helps!
