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

Answer:

In a chemical reaction, chemical equilibrium is the state in which the forward reaction rate and the reverse reaction rate are equal. The result of this equilibrium is that the concentrations of the reactants and the products do not change.

A single penny is 1.52 mm thick. The distance to the next nearest star other than our own (Alpha Centauri) is 4.22 light-years.
crimeas [40]

Answer:

2.29 × 10⁴ times

Explanation:

A single penny is 1.52 mm thick. The distance covered by 1 mole of pennies (6.02 × 10²³ pennies) is:

6.02 × 10²³ p × (1.52 mm/1 p) = 9.15 × 10²³ mm = 9.15 × 10²³ × 10⁻³ m = 9.15 × 10²⁰ m

The distance to the next nearest star other than our own (Alpha Centauri) is 4.22 light-years. Considering 1 ly = 9.46 × 10¹⁵ m, this distance in meters is:

4.22 ly × (9.46 × 10¹⁵ m/1 ly) = 3.99 × 10¹⁶ m

The times that the stack would go between the earth and Alpha Centauri are:

9.15 × 10²⁰ m / 3.99 × 10¹⁶ m = 2.29 × 10⁴
