Answer:

The pH of a solution of 0.00278 M of HClO₄ is 2.56

Explanation:

pH is a measure of acidity or alkalinity that indicates the amount of hydrogen ions present in a solution or substance and is calculated as:

pH= - log [H⁺]= - log [H₃O⁺]

On the other hand , a Strong Acid is that acid that in an aqueous solution dissociates completely. In other words, a strong acid completely dissociates into hydrogen ions and anions in solution.

HClO₄ is a strong acid, so in aqueous solution it will be  totally dissociated. Then, the concentration of protons is equal to the initial concentration of  acid and the pH will be calculated:

pH= - log 0.00278

pH= 2.56

<u><em>The pH of a solution of 0.00278 M of HClO₄ is 2.56</em></u>

Three reasons for air is mixture and water is compound
zhannawk [14.2K]
1. air components change from place to place, while water will just stay the same

2. Water doesn't have nor show individual properties, but air does show that it has it's own property

3. You can separate different gases from air physically, but with water you must pass electricity through it.

Don't take my word for it, this is just what I learned back in middle school.

A sample of gas with an initial volume of 28.4 Liters at a pressure of 725 mmHg and a temperature of 305 K is compressed to a vo
Lerok [7]

Answer:

The final pressure is 2.25 atm or 1710 mm Hg

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

The initial volume = 28.4 L

The initial pressure = 725 mm Hg ( = 725/760 atm) = 0.953947 atm

The initial temperature = 305 K

The new volume is 14.8 L

The new temperature = 375 K

Step 2: Calculate the new pressure

(P1*V1)/T1 = (P2*V2)/T2

⇒ with P1 = the initial pressure = 725 mmHg = 0.953947 atm

⇒ with V1 = the initial volume = 28.4 L

⇒ with T1  = The initial temperature = 305 K

⇒ with P2 = the new pressure = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒ with V2 = the new volume = 14.8 L

⇒ with T2 = the new temperature = 375 K

(0.953947 * 28.4)/305 = (P2 * 14.8)/375

P2 = 2.25 atm = 1710 mm Hg

The final pressure is 2.25 atm or 1710 mm Hg

Why doesn't glue stick to the inside of the bottle? (Not sure if this is chemistry or not lol)
Leni [432]

Answer:

When white glue is in the bottle, there's not enough air inside the bottle to cause the water to evaporate to make the glue sticky. Basically, the bottle holds the glue from the air and keeps the glue from going everywhere.

Which label belongs in the region marked X?
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

A) involves changes in temperature

Explanation:

The figure is missing, but I assume that the region marked X represents the region in common between Gay-Lussac's law and Charle's Law.

Gay-Lussac's law states that:

"For an ideal gas kept at constant volume, the pressure of the gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature"

Mathematically, it can be written as

p\propto T

where p is the pressure of the gas and T its absolute temperature.

Charle's Law states that:

"For an ideal gas kept at constant pressure, the volume of the gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature"

Mathematically, it can be written as

V\propto T

where V is the volume of the gas and T its absolute temperature.

By looking at the two descriptions of the law, we see immediately that the property that they have in common is

A) involves changes in temperature

Since the temperature is NOT kept constant in the two laws.
