Answer A,They can form a triple covalent bond.
Explanation:
It would depend on what the substance was. If we're talking ice to water, there doesn't have to be much of a difference; but if we're talking like gold, it has to be 1,948 degrees before it melts.
Definitions needed:
pH = -log[H^+]
pOH = -log[OH^-]
pH + pOH = 14
[H^+]*[OH^-] = 10^-14
(a) [H+] = 3.0 10-13 M
[OH ‾ ] = _____ M
Acidic, Basic, or Neutral?
[H^+]*[OH^-] = 10^-14
[OH^-] = (10^-14)/[H^+]
[OH^-] = (10^-14)/(3.0 10-13 M) = 0.033 M
That's a high concentration of [OH^-], so the solution is basic
(b) [OH ‾ ] = 3.0 10-7 M
[H+] = ______M
Acidic, Basic, or Neutral?
[H^+]*[OH^-] = 10^-14
[H^+]* = (10^-14)/[OH^-]
[H^+]* = (10^-14)/(3.0 10-7 M) = 3.33 x 10^-8
That would be a slightly basic solution (pH just higher than 7).
