Answer:

7  

Explanation:

Assume we have 1 L of each solution.

Solution 1

\text{[H$^{+}$]}= 10^\text{-pH} \text{ mol/L} = 10^{\text{-2}} \text{ mol/L}\\ \text{ moles of H}^{+} = \text{ 1 L solution} \times \dfrac{10^{-2}\text{ mol H}^{+}}{\text{1 L solution}} = 10^{-2}\text{ mol H}^{+}

Solution 2

pH = 12

pOH = 14.00 - pOH = 14.00 - 12 = 2.0

\text{[OH$^{-}$]}= 10^\text{-pOH} \text{ mol/L} = 10^{\text{-2}} \text{ mol/L}\\ \text{ moles of OH}^{-} = \text{ 1 L solution} \times \dfrac{10^{-2}\text{ mol OH}^{-}}{\text{1 L solution}} = 10^{-2}\text{ mol OH}^{-}

3. pH after mixing

               H⁺  +  OH⁻ ⟶ H₂O

I/mol:     10⁻²    10⁻²  

C/mol:   -10⁻²   -10⁻²

E/mol:      0        0

The H⁺ and OH⁻ have neutralized each other. The pH will be that of pure water.

pH = 7

Calculate the molar concentration of the Br⁻ ions in 0.51 M MgBr2(aq), assuming that the dissolved substance dissociates complet
Y_Kistochka [10]
MgBr2(aq) is an ionic compound which will have the releasing of 2 Br⁻ ions ions in water for every molecule of MgBr2 that dissolves.
MgBr2(s) --> Mg+(aq) + 2 Br⁻(aq)
            [Br⁻] = 0.51 mol MgBr2/1L × 2 mol Br⁻ / 1 mol MgBr2 = 1.0 M
The answer to this question is [Br⁻] = 1.0 M

Identify the property of the matter described below.
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer: C.

Explanation: Alcohol floats on oil and water sinks in oil. Water, alcohol, and oil layer well because of their densities, but also because the oil layer does not dissolve in either liquid. The oil keeps the water and alcohol separated so that they do not dissolve in one another. ... Water sinks because it is more dense than oil.
