According to Henderson–Hasselbalch Equation,

                                    pH  =  pKa + log [Nitrate] / [Nitric Acid]

As,      Ka of Nitric Acid  =  7.1 × 10⁻⁴
So,
           pKa  =  -log [ 7.1 × 10⁻⁴ ]

           pKa  =  3.148

So,                               pH  =  3.148 + log [Nitrate] / [Nitric Acid]

                                  3.90  =  3.148 + log [Nitrate] / [Nitric Acid]

                      3.90 - 3.148  = log [Nitrate] / [Nitric Acid]

                                0.752  =  log [Nitrate] / [Nitric Acid]

Taking Antilog on both sides,

                                  [Nitrate] / [Nitric Acid]  =  5.64

7. Which two substances do geologists use in radiocarbon dating?
Sav [38]

Carbon -14 and Carbon 12 are the two substances geologists use in radiocarbon dating.

Answer: Option B

<u>Explanation: </u>

Radiocarbon dating denotes the determination process of the age of fossils of plants or animals based on the ratio of carbon atoms 14 to 12. Carbon naturally exists in two non-radioactive isotopes, Carbon-12 and Carbon-13 and one radioactive isotope carbon 14. The carbon 14 gets released on continuous cosmic reaction with atmospheric nitrogen.

These carbon 14 will be absorbed by the living plants and from the plants. Then, it will enter inside the animals which consume the plants. But once the plants and animals died, they ceased to intake carbon-14. In their living state, the ratios of carbon atoms 14 to 12 in them tends to similar to the ratio in atmosphere.

But after they die, the ratio of C-14 to C-12 will be varying from the ratio of C-14 to C-12 in atmosphere as the concentration of C-14 will be decreasing in the dead animals and plants. Thus using this ratio, geologists can find the fossil's age.

Which description of salt is a physical property? (2 points)
jarptica [38.1K]

Product of mixing acids and bases describes salt is a physical property.

Product of mixing acids and bases

<u>Explanation:</u>

When an acid and a base are put together, they respond to kill the corrosive and base properties, creating a salt which portrays the physical property. The physical properties of table salt will be: Salt is a white cubic gem. At the point when the salt is unadulterated it clear.

It likewise shows up in white, dim or caramel shading relying on immaculateness. It is unscented yet has a solid salty taste. Fundamental salts contain the conjugate base of a feeble corrosive, so when they break down in the water, they respond with water to yield an answer with a pH more than 7.0.
