A small helium tank measures about two feet high. Yet it can fill over 50 balloons! How can such a small tank contain enough hel

It will only take a small amount of helium when inflating balloons. For example, an 11" balloon only needs 0.015 m3 of helium. So it make sense, why a two feet helium tank can inflate at about 50 balloons. Also, the size tank (2 ft. high) does not define the capacity of helium it contains.

What is the difference between pH and pOH?
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

pH measures ratio of H+ ions to OH- ions of substances

pOH measures ratio of OH- ions to H+ ions of substances

Explanation:

pH is a scale which measures the ratio of H+ ions to OH- ions to identify how acidic or basic a substance is. This is because acidic substances have high amounts of H+ ions and low amounts of OH- ions, and therefore have a higher ratio of H+ to OH- ions. (And vice versa for bases, low H+ to OH- ratio) On a pH scale, acidic substances have a pH of 0 to 7, water (neutral pH, not acidic nor basic) has a pH of 7, and bases have a pH of 7-14.

pOH is very similar to pH but measures the opposite: the ratio of OH- ions (indicative of a base) to H+ ions (indicative of an acid). Therefore the pH values are reversed on the scale: Basic substances have pOHs below 7, and acidic substances are above 7 on the pOH scale.

Fundamentally, these two scales measure the same thing is the same way, one just measures the ratio one way (H+:OH-), while the other measured them the other way (OH-:H+), resulting in flipped values on the scales:

pH: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14

      <---Acidic--->   <------Basic------->

pOH: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14

         <----Basic---->  <-----Acidic------->

Hope this helped!

The diagram below shows different layers of sedimentary rocks.
Flura [38]
<span>Picture showing seven layers of rocks of different colors labeled A, B, C, D, E, F, and G from top to bottom;
A and B are parallel horizontal layers at the top of the diagram;
C, D, E, F, and G are slanted layers with C closest to the surface and G at the bottom.
</span>
The inference that is most likely correct is that (<span>C) Layer F is younger than Layer D.</span>

An example of gaining potential energy
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

An example for gaining potential energy would be: A glass bottle on the top of a high shelf would have more high potential energy than a glass bottle on the middle or bottom shelf because it has a long way or more farther to fall down or brake.

Explanation:

Remember Potential Energy is the restored energy of an object has.
