Answer:
The rain falling in New England is 2.29 times more acidic than the one in the American Midwest.
Explanation:
The acidity of a solution depends on the concentration of H⁺ ions ([H⁺]). We can calculate this concentration from the pH using the following expression.
pH = -log ([H⁺])
American Midwest
pH = -log ([H⁺])
5.02 = -log ([H⁺])
[H⁺] = antilog (-5.02) = 9.55 × 10⁻⁶ M
New England
pH = -log ([H⁺])
4.66 = -log ([H⁺])
[H⁺] = antilog (-4.66) = 2.19 × 10⁻⁵ M
The ratio of concentrations is:
The rain falling in New England is 2.29 times more acidic than the one in the American Midwest.
Answer: [N2]₀ = 10M and [H2]₀ = 11M
Explanation: To calculate the initial concentration, you would have to set up an ICE table, which is an organized way of tracking known quantities or the ones you want to find. ICE stands for:
I is initial amount;
C is change in concentration;
E is for equilibrium concentration;
For the mixture,
N2 3H2 2NH3
I [N2]₀ [H2]₀ 0
C - x -3x +2x
E [N2]₀ - x =8 [H2]₀ - 3x =5 2x =4
With the product, we can find "x":
2x=4
x=2M
With x=2, find the concentrations:
[N2]₀ - x = 8
[N2]₀ = 10M
[H2]₀ - 3x = 5
[H2]₀ = 11M
The initial concentrations of nitrogen gas [N2] is 10.0 M and of hydrogen gas [H2] is 11.0 M.
Answer:
negative
Explanation:
When something slows down, its acceleration is the opposite of the velocity.
