Answer: A

Explanation:

An acid is a substance that dissolves in water to produce proton (H +), which then combines with Water molecule (H2O) to give Hydroxonium ion (H3O +).

Acid also have a pH value below 7 on the pH scale.

Answer:

A. Substances that release protons when they dissolve in water are termed acids and result in a pH lower than 7

Explanation:

An acid when in water releases a proton(H+) while the base in water releases an hydroxide(OH- )ion. The hydroxide ion released by the base then accepts the Proton released by the acid.

An acidic substance is known to have a pH of 0-6.9 while basic substances have a pH of 7.1-14.0.

This makes option A correct.

What is the second most abundant element in stars? A. helium B. iron C. hydrogen D. oxygen

<span>The </span>abundance of a chemical element<span> is a measure of the </span>occurrence<span> of the </span>element<span> relative to all other elements in a given environment. Abundance is measured in one of three ways: by the </span>mass-fraction<span> (the same as weight fraction); by the </span>mole-fraction<span> (fraction of atoms by numerical count, or sometimes fraction of molecules in gases); or by the </span>volume-fraction<span>. Volume-fraction is a common abundance measure in mixed gases such as planetary atmospheres, and is similar in value to molecular mole-fraction for gas mixtures at relatively low densities and pressures, and </span>ideal gas<span> mixtures. Most abundance values in this article are given as mass-fractions.

A gas has a volume of 5.0 L at a pressure of 50 KPa. What happens to the volume when the pressure is increased to 125?
Alexeev081 [22]
The volume becomes two. You have to use the equation P1 x V1 = P2 x V2 
P is pressure and V is volume.
P1 = 50     P2 = 125
V1 = 5       V2 = v (we don't know what it is)
Then set up the equation:
50 times 5 = 125 times v
250 = 125v
the divide both sides by 125 and isolate v
2 = v
Therefore the volume is decreased to 2.
Also, Boyle's Law explains this too: Volume and pressure are inversely related, This means that when one goes up the other goes down (ie when pressure increases volume decreases and vice versa). Becuase the pressure went up from 50 KPa tp 125 KPa the volume had to decrease.
