Asolution has a pH of 8. Which best describes the solution?

2 answers:

7 0

A pH of 8 describes a weak base. Note that a pH of 7 is considered neutral. Anything lower than 7 is acidic, and anything higher than 7 is basic. For bases, the higher the pH, the more basic a substance is. Since the solution's pH of 8 is a lot closer to 7 than 14 (maximum pH), it is safe to assume that it is a weak base.

An empty beaker weighs 25.91 g. When completely filled with water, the beaker and its contents have a total mass of 333.85 g. Wh

Finger [1]

Answer:

The beaker holds 307.94 mL

Explanation:

As we know that the volume that beaker hold is the volume of water that occupied by it.

For this first we have to find mass of the water in the beaker

This can be calculated by the subtraction of beaker's weight from the weight of beaker and water.

weight of water (m) = total weight - weight of beaker

Empty weight of beaker = 25.91 g

Weight of beaker with water = 333.85 g

Weight of water = 333.85 - 25.91 = 307.94 g

Density of water = 1 g/mL

We have

Mass = Volume x density

307.94 = Volume x 1

Volume = 307.94 mL

The beaker holds 307.94 mL

Boron has two isotopes, Boron 10 which has a mass of 10.0129 amu and Boron-11 with a mass of 11.0093 amu. B-10 occurs 84.74% of

podryga [215]

The average atomic mass of Boron: 10.431 amu

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

Isotopes are atoms whose no-atom has the same number of protons while still having a different number of neutrons.

So Isotopes are elements that have the same Atomic Number (Proton)

Atomic mass is the average atomic mass of all its isotopes

In determining the mass of an atom, as a standard is the mass of 1 carbon-12 atom whose mass is 12 amu

Mass atom X = mass isotope 1 . % + mass isotope 2.% + ...

The average atomic mass of boron :

$\tt avg~mass=0.8474\times 10.0129+0.1526\times 11.0093\\\\avg~mass=10.431~amu$

Two hydrogen atoms collide in a head on collision and end up with zero kinetic energy. Each then emits a photon of 121.6 nm (n=2

Zinaida [17]

Explanation:

Expression for the kinetic energy is as follows.

K.E = $\frac{1}{2}mv^{2}$

Now, total kinetic energy will be as follows.

K.E = $2 \times \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}$ = $m \times v^{2}$

Since, this energy converts into electromagnetic radiation of wavelength 121.6 nm.

Relation between energy and photon is as follows.

Energy of photon = $\frac{hc}{\lambda}$

= $\frac{6.626 \times 10^{-34} \times 3 \times 10^{8}}{121.6 \times 10^{-9}}$

= $1.63 \times 10^{-18} J$

$m \times v^{2} = 1.63 \times 10^{-18}$

v = $\sqrt{\frac{1.63 \times 10^{-18}}{1.67 \times 10^{-27}}$

= $3.12 \times 10^{4}$ m/s

Thus, we can conclude that atoms were moving at a speed of $3.12 \times 10^{4}$ m/s before the collision.
