Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When we increase the concentration of a substance then it means we are increasing number of molecules of the substance. So, when there is increase in concentration of hydroxide ions the it means there are more number of $OH^{-}$ ions into the solution.

Also, it is known that pOH = $log \frac{1}{OH^{-}}$

Since there is increase in $[OH^{-}]$ concentration so, this means that there will be decrease in the value of pOH.

Also, pH + pOH = 14

so, pH = 14 - pOH

pH = +ve

Thus, we can conclude that there will be increase in the value of pH.

Answer:

Its pH value increases.

Explanation:

pH is the measure of alkalinity or acidity of a compound.

pH = - log [H+]

and pH + pOH = 14

where pOH is the measure of basicity of a solution, given by -log[OH-]

As a solution gets more basic that is higher [OH-], the pH increases, and on the other hand, as the pH of a solution decreases by one pH unit, the concentration of H+ increases by ten times.

Which of the following is an accurate example of how the water cycle can influence local weather? A. An increase in evaporation

irina1246 [14]

The answer is; A

During a hot day, the land heats up faster than the waters. The air on land becomes warm and less dense fast and begin to rise in the atmosphere. The air on the ocean with is still cooler and denser moves in to replace the rising on land air. This causes a sea breeze. The sea breeze carries with it, moisture. The hotter the day the higher the humidity. When the air goes inland, it causes precipitation when it rises, cool, and condenses.

a 2.7 L of N2 is collected at 121kpa and 288 K . if the pressure increases to 202 kpa and the temperature rises to 303 K , what

Answer:

The gas will occupy a volume of 1.702 liters.

Explanation:

Let suppose that the gas behaves ideally. The equation of state for ideal gas is:

$P\cdot V = n\cdot R_{u}\cdot T$ (1)

Where:

$P$ - Pressure, measured in kilopascals.

$V$ - Volume, measured in liters.

$n$ - Molar quantity, measured in moles.

$T$ - Temperature, measured in Kelvin.

$R_{u}$ - Ideal gas constant, measured in kilopascal-liters per mole-Kelvin.

We can simplify the equation by constructing the following relationship:

$\frac{P_{1}\cdot V_{1}}{T_{1}} = \frac{P_{2}\cdot V_{2}}{T_{2}}$ (2)

Where:

$P_{1}$ , $P_{2}$ - Initial and final pressure, measured in kilopascals.

$V_{1}$ , $V_{2}$ - Initial and final volume, measured in liters.

$T_{1}$ , $T_{2}$ - Initial and final temperature, measured in Kelvin.

If we know that $P_{1} = 121\,kPa$ , $P_{2} = 202\,kPa$ , $V_{1} = 2.7\,L$ , $T_{1} = 288\,K$ and $T_{2} = 303\,K$ , the final volume of the gas is:

$V_{2} = \left(\frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}} \right)\cdot \left(\frac{P_{1}}{P_{2}} \right)\cdot V_{1}$

$V_{2} = 1.702\,L$

The gas will occupy a volume of 1.702 liters.

fill in the blanks: label the different parts of the rock cycle where igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic rock are formed.

Zarrin [17]

Answer:

☞rock cycle

=> The rock cycle is a basic concept in geology that describes transitions through geologic time among the three main rock types: sedimentary, metamorphic, and igneous. Each rock type is altered when it is forced out of its equilibrium conditions.

=> There are three main kinds of rocks: igneous rock, metamorphic rock, and sedimentary rock. ... It can erode into sediment or melt into magma. It is formed under extreme pressure and temperature deep inside mountain chains.

Why can’t you perform single displacement reactions with group IA metals?

pishuonlain [190]

Answer is: because alkaline metals (group IA metals) are the strongest reducing agents and most reactive metals.
Reducing agent<span> is an element or compound that loses an </span>electron<span> to another </span>chemical species<span> in a </span>redox <span>chemical reaction and they have been oxidized.
Alkaline metals tend to lose only one electron in redox reaction.</span>

What mass of the protein gelatin is needed to make 0.5 L of a 3 g/L gelatin solution? Show your work.

REY [17]

Answer:

m = 1.5 gram

Explanation:

Given that,

Density of protein gelatin, d = 3 g/L

The volume of protein gelatin, V = 0.5 L

We need to find the mass of the protein gelatin. The density of an object is given by :

d = m/V

Where

m is mass

$m=d\times V\\\\m=3\ g/L\times 0.5\ L\\\\m=1.5\ g$

So, the required mass is 1.5 gram.
