A student measures the pH of a solution to be 6.8. Which should the student add if she wants to decrease the pH of the solution?

2 answers:

7 0

The neutral pH is 7. Less than 7 indicates an acid and more than 7 indicates a base (up to 14).
<span> NaCl - it's a salt (we can't measure the pH)
H2O - it can be an acid but also a base (the pH it is almost neutral,meaning close to 7 )
HF - it is a strong acid
</span><span> KOH - it is a strong base (pH=14)
</span>

He needs to use HF (Hydrogen fluoride) to decrease the pH.

HF is the answer because it is an acid so it decreases overall ph. Did you understand?

Define unit vectors as follows:
$\hat{i}$ is in the eastern direction.
$\hat{j}$ is in the northern direction.

The position of the first bird is
$\vec{a} = -3.6 \, \hat{i} + 1.8 \, \hat{j}$

The position of the second bird is
$\vec{b} = - 1.8 \, \hat{i} + 3.6 \, \hat{j}$

Let θ = the angle between the net displacement vector for the two birds.
By definition,
$\vec{a} . \vec{b} = |a| |b| cos\theta \\\\ \theta = cos^{-1} ( \frac{\vec{a}.\vec{b}}{|a||b|} )$

$\vec{a}.\vec{b} = (-3.6)(-1.8)+(3.6)(1.8) = 12.96$
$|a| = \sqrt{3.24+12.96} =4.025$
Similarly,
|b| = 4.025

Therefore
$\theta = cos^{-1} \frac{12.96}{4.025^{2}} =36.9^{o}$

Answer: 36.9°

Bond [772]

Lifting hands and the down by one student at a time best describe the presentation of the transverse wave by students. Option D is correct.

<h3>What is a Transverse wave?</h3>

The wave in which the oscillation of particles is is perpendicular to the direction of energy transfer.

The students can make a transverse wave by raising their hands up and then down, one student at a time.

The raised hand represents the oscillation of particles while the sequence of the raising hand represents the direction of energy transfer.

Therefore, lifting hands and the down by one student at a time best describe the presentation of the transverse wave by students.
