The value for Kw is 1.0 x 10-14 at 298K, but this value is temperature dependent. Given what you know about Kw and acid/base che

mistry, what will the pH of water be at 283K if the value for Kw is 0.29 x 10-14? Is this solution acidic, basic, or neutral?
a. pH = 7.26, acidic
b. pH = 7.26, neutral
c. pH = 7.00, neutral
d. pH = 14.54, basic
e. pH = 7.26, basic

Answer:

The correct answer is option b.

Explanation:

H_2O\rightleftharpoons H^++OH^-

The ionic product of water : K_w

K_w=[H^+][OH^-]

A pure water has equal concentration of hydrogen ions and hydroxide ions, hence neutral.

K_w=[H^+][H^+]=[H^+]^2

The ionic product of water at 283 K = K_w=0.29\times 10^{-14}

K_w=[H^+]^2

0.29\times 10^{-14}=[H^+]^2

[H^+]=5.385\times 10^{-8} M

The pH of the water at 283 k;

pH=-\log [H^+]

=-\log[5.385\times 10^{-8} M]=7.26

A pure water has equal concentration of hydrogen ions and hydroxide ions,So water will e neutral at this temperature also.

The correct answer is option b.

madreJ [45]

Answer:

On genes within chromosomes

Explanation:

-The fur pattern is a genetic trait whose instruction is carried in the DNA's base sequence.

-These instructions are organized into genes and each gene is only responsble for the making of a functional product.

-Hence, the instructions are stored on genes within chromosomes.

The International Date Line
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

The International Date Line, established in 1884, passes through the mid-Pacific Ocean and roughly follows a 180 degrees longitude north-south line on the Earth. It is located halfway round the world from the prime meridian—the zero degrees longitude established in Greenwich, England, in 1852.
