When sulfur dioxide combines with water and air, it forms sulfuric acid, which is the main component of acid rain. Acid rain can: cause deforestation. acidify waterways to the detriment of aquatic life
Answer:A cell is the smallest unit of life, also called the 'building blocks of life' because cells multiply and differentiate to form a multicellular organism as well as give rise to new organism by forming gametes or reproductive spores.
Explanation:
Answer:
130ml of HCl(36%) in 4.90L solution => pH = 1.50
Explanation:
Need 4.90L of HCl(aq) solution with pH = 1.5.
Given pH = 1.5 => [H⁺] = 10⁻¹·⁵M = 0.032M in H⁺
[HCl(36%)] ≅ 12M in HCl
(M·V)concentrate = (M·V)diluted
12M·V(conc) = 0.032M·4.91L
=> V(conc) needed = [(0.032)(4.91)/12]Liters = 0.0130Liters or 130 ml.
Mixing Caution => Add 131 ml of HCl(36%) into a small quantity of water (~500ml) then dilute to the mark.

5. False
Explanation:
1. Hypochlorous acid (HOCl) is a weak acid that forms when chlorine dissolves in water, and is partially dissociated, forming hypochlorite. HOCl is considered a strong oxidizing agent responsible for the killing action of germs in chlorine solutions.
2. Acetic acid is also known as ethanoic acid. It has a distinctive sour taste and pungent smell, and is generally considered a weak acid. in a concentrated form, acetic acid can be corrosive.
3/4 . Methylene chloride is an organochloride compound with the formula CH2Cl2. It is a colorless, volatile liquid with a moderately sweet aroma is widely used as a solvent. It is normally stable, non-flammable and non-explosive when mixed with air at temperatures below 100 °C, but its vapor is flammable only when present in relatively high concentrations of about 14% to 22% in air. Research shows that it is very much possibly carcinogenic, and it has been linked to cancer of the lungs, liver, pancreas, breast cancer and salivary gland cancer in laboratory animals.
5. Laboratory and medical waste are not to be disposed in the trash with regular wastes, as they are potentially toxic. Special disposal methods and agencies exists to take away such wastes.
