Answer: The total pressure of air in lungs of an individual is 760.28 mm Hg

Explanation:

According to Dalton's law, the total pressure is the sum of individual pressures.

p_{total}=p_A+p_B+p_C...

Given : p_{total} =total pressure of gases = ?

p_{O_2} = partial pressure of oxygen = 100 mm Hg

p_{N_2} = partial pressure of nitrogen = 573 mm Hg

p_{CO_2} = partial pressure of Carbon dioxide = 0.053 atm = 40.28 mm Hg(1 atm = 760 mmHg)

p_{H_2O} = partial pressure of water vapor = 47 torr = 47 mm Hg  (1torr=1 mm Hg)

putting in the values we get:

p_{total}=(100+573+40.28+47)mmHg

p_{total}=760.28mmHg

Thus the total pressure of air in lungs of an individual is 760.28 mm Hg

What is the hydronium and hydroxide concentrations of a solution that is 5.0 x 10-3 M H2SO4.
Maksim231197 [3]

The hydronium and hydroxide concentrations of a solution that is 5.0 x 10-3 M H2SO4 is 2.7.

pH= -log[H+] - (i)

10^-3=H2So4

H+= 2×10-3

here ,

h2so4 ——— 2[H+] + so4^2-

thus [H+]= 2*10^(-3) because hydrogen ion has two moles

pH= -log[H+]

pH= -log(2×10^-3)

pH= 3-log2

pH= 3-log2pH= 2.7

The pH is 2.7

<h3>What is pH?</h3>

PH is the degree of alkalinity and acidicity in a solution.

Therefore, The hydronium and hydroxide concentrations of a solution that is 5.0 x 10-3 M H2SO4 is 2.7

Luke and Sian want to plant a vegetable garden in their yard. A soil testing kit measures the soil pH at 5.0, but the lettuce th
dexar [7]

Answer:

So, Luke and Sian has to increase the pH of the soil by adding base to it.

Explanation:

The pH is defined as the negative logarithm of the hydrogen ion concentration in their aqueous solution.

pH=-\log[H^+]

  • With increase in hydrogen ion concentration the pH value decreases.
  • With decrease in hydrogen ion concentration the pH value increases.

The pH of the soil after testing it on a kit comes out be 5.0, but they both need pH of the soil to 6.5.

Comparison of pH of soil:

  =  5.0 < 6.5

= High hydrogen ion concentration > High hydrogen ion concentration

So, Luke and Sian has to increase the pH of the soil by adding base .Doing so will decrease the hydrogen ion concentration in the soil (where as addition of acid lower the pH of soil).
