Answer:
e. 3
Explanation:
In order to solve this problem we need to keep in mind the definition of pH:
As stated by the problem, the hydrogen ion concentration, [H⁺], is 1x10⁻³ M.
As all required information is available, we now can <u>calculate the pH</u>:
The correct option is thus e.
Ok, after doing an immense amount of research I came up with the most logical answer.
A. Is indicated by a negative enthrall sign.
Reasoning: an endothermic reaction is ice melting and the energy being more than its surroundings. Not specified to ice but as an example, ice is endothermic. That puts d and b out of the running leaving you left with a and c.
When I searched up enthalpy, it said “When a substance changes at constant pressure, enthalpy tells how much heat and work was added or removed from the substance.” Which is similar to c, right? Yeah, meaning both a and c are similar in that aspect.
The reason I decided to go with a is because heat is NOT released into the surrounding, exothermic reactions release energy and heat into the surrounding.
Answer:
Sue was not right as wood is not a heat conductor and will not allow heat to pass through the spoon thus keeping the hand safe. In a meatal spoon, heat can pass through and burn the hand as meatal is a good conductor of heat.
From the given pH, we calculate the concentration of H+:
[H+] = 10^-pH = 10^-5.5
We then use the volume to solve for the number of moles of H+:
moles H+ = 10^-5.5M * 4.3x10^9 L = 13598 moles
From the balanced equation of the neutralization of hydrogen ion by limestone written as
CaCO3(s) + 2H+(aq) → Ca2+(aq) + H2CO3(aq)
we use the mole ratio of limestone CaCO3 and H+ from their coefficients, which is 1 mole of CaCO3 is to react with 2 moles of H+, to compute for the mass of the limestone:
mass CaCO3 = 13598mol H+(1mol CaCO3/2mol H+)
(100.0869g CaCO3/1mol CaCO3)(1kg/1000g)
= 680 kg
