Answer:

Household bleach has more hydroxide ions than lye.

Explanation:

The pH of the solution id the negative logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration in an aqueous solution.

pH=-\log[H^+]

  • Higher the pH value lessor the hydrogen ion concentration in the solution. Higher will be the concentration of hydroxide ions
  • Lower the pH value higher the hydrogen ion concentration in the solution.Lower will be the concentration of hydroxide ions.

The pH of the household bleach = 12.6

12.6=-\log[H^+]

[H^+]=2.511\times 10^{-13} M

The pH of the lye= 13

13=-\log[H^+]

[H^+]= 10^{-13} M

Since , house hold bleach has the lower pH than lye which means that it will have higher concentration of hydroxide ions.

Answer is: false, concentration of hydroxide ions is greater in lye than in household bleach.

1) pH = 12.6.

pH + pOH = 14.

pOH = 14 - 12.6.

pOH = 1.4.

pOH = -log[OH⁻] ⇒ [OH⁻] = 10∧(-pOH).

[OH⁻] = 10∧(-1.4) = 0.039 M; concentration of hydroxide ions.

2) pH = 13.

pOH = 14 - 13.

pOH = 1.

[OH⁻] = 10⁻¹ M = 0.1 M.

0.1 M > 0.039 M.

How do isotopes of the same atom react chemically? How do isotopes of the same atom compare in size?
Katyanochek1 [597]

Atoms of the same elements differing in the number of neutrons in their nuclei are known as isotopes. Thus, isotopes of an element have the same atomic number but different atomic mass number. Isotopes of an element have similar chemical properties but different physical properties.

Describe in your own words a situation where chemical energy is transformed to potential energy.
Xelga [282]

Answer:

An important example of chemical potential energy is the energy stored in the food that you eat. Inside your body, this food is distributed around your body and is reacted in your cells to release the energy stored in the chemical bonds.
