Calculus, originally called infinitesimal calculus or "the calculus of infinitesimals", is the mathematical study of continuous change, in the same way that geometry is the study of shape and algebra is the study of generalizations of arithmetic operations.

Sally and Sue took a canoe trip down the Mississippi River. Their average speed for the trip south was 20 miles/hour. 20 miles/h
Anna35 [415]

C

Speed is the time rate at which Sue covers the distance. It is derived by dividing the total distance covered by the total time taken to cover the distance . Usually SI unit for speed is km/h or mph or m/s.

Explanation:

Speed is also referred to as velocity- so the two are synonymous.

Acceleration is the rate at which speed is increasing. It is usually given by SI unit m/s². The opposite of acceleration is deceleration which is the rate at which speed is decreasing.

Distance is the measurement, in meters of kilometers or miles or yards..etc, that has been covered from one point to another.

The three beakers shown below contain solutions of [cof6]3–, [co(nh3)6]3+, and [co(cn)6]3–. based on the colors of the three sol
vitfil [10]
[Co(CN)₆]³⁻ → Yellow
[Co(NH₃)₆]³⁺ → Orange
[CoF₆]³⁻ → Blue
Explanation:
- All the given compounds have octahedral geometry but the ligand in each are different with the same metal ion.

- Ligands strength order:     CN⁻ > NH₃ > F⁻ 

- The ligand CN will act as a strong field ligand so that the splitting is maximum when compared to NH₃ and F⁻

- If the splitting is more, the energy required for transition is more, and the wavelength is inversely proportional to energy.

- So CN complex will absorb at lower wavelength (yellow color)

If the ionization constant of water, kw, at 40°c is 2.92 × 10-14, then what is the hydronium ion concentration and ph for an aci
charle [14.2K]

Answer is: the hydronium ion concentratio is 1.71×10⁻⁷ mol/dm³ and pH<6.76.

The Kw (the ionization constant of water) at 40°C is 2.94×10⁻¹⁴ mol²/dm⁶ or 2.94×10⁻¹⁴ M².

Kw = [H₃O⁺] · [OH⁻].

[H₃O⁺] = [OH⁻] = x.

Kw = x².

x = √Kw.

x = √2.94×10⁻¹⁴ M².

x = [H₃O⁺] = 1.71×10⁻⁷ M; concentration of hydronium ion.

pH = -log[H₃O⁺].

pH = -log(1.71×10⁻⁷ M).

pH = 6.76.

pH (potential of hydrogen) is a numeric scale used to specify the acidity or basicity an aqueous solution.
