Calculate the pH and fraction of dissociation (

A fish is removed from a contaminated lake. You determine that a particular toxin (X) is present in its cells at concentration X

netineya [11]

The level of toxins in the fish's cell is equivalent to the level of toxins in the water. Therefore, in order to reduce the toxins further, we should replace the now contaminated water with clean water. After the level of toxins in the fish's cell stops reducing, we replace the water with clean water once again.

A salt solution will conduct electricity but if sugar solution will not explain why

Rainbow [258]

Salt solution such as sodium chloride (NaCl) conducts an electric current because it has ions in it that have the freedom to move about in solution. ... On the other hand, sugar solution does not conduct an electric current because sugar (C12H22O11) dissolves in water to produce sugar molecules

g Select the correct statements. I. Reduction is the loss of electrons, and oxidation is the gain of electrons II. Reduction is

Karolina [17]

Answer: The correct answer is Option D.

Explanation:

Reduction reaction is defined as the reaction in which a substance gains electrons. Here, the oxidation state of the substance decreases.

$X^{n+}+ne^-\rightarrow X$

Oxidizing agents are the agents that helps in the oxidation of other substance and itself gets reduced. These agents undergoes reduction reactions.

Oxidation reaction is defined as the reaction in which a substance looses its electrons. Here, oxidation state of the substance increases.

$X\rightarrow X^{n+}+ne^-$

Reducing agents are the agents that helps in the reduction of the other substance and itself gets oxidized. These agents undergoes reduction reactions.

Oxidation state is the number which is given to an atom when it looses or gains electron. It is written as a superscript. In a compound, the total charge is equal to the sum of the charges of all atoms in that compound. For Example: In $MnO_4^-$ , manganese has +7 oxidation number and oxygen has -2.

So, the charge on the compound = $[=7+(4\times (-2))]=-1$

Hence, the correct answer is Option D.

Consider the reaction below. NH4+ + H2O mc013-1.jpg NH3 + H3O+ Which is an acid-conjugate base pair? NH4+ and NH3 NH4+ and H3O+

juin [17]

NH4+ and NH3 are an acid-conjugate base pair, since NH4+ is an acid, while NH3 is its conjugate base (since it is without the H+).
H2O and H3O+ can also be considered an acid-conjugate base pair, since H3O+ is an acid, while H2O would be its conjugate base. (But if only 1 answer is to be selected, it should be the NH4+ and NH3)
NH4+ and H3O+ are both acids, and both H2O and NH3 can be considered bases.
