Answer:

a. 3.4

Explanation:

Blue litmus paper turns red under acidic conditions, that happens when pH of the solution goes below 4.5. Litmus paper is one of the oldest pH indicator, used to test materials for acidity.

Blue litmus does not change color under alkakine conditions, while red litmus paper does not change color under acidic conditions. Neutral litmus paper is purplish in color.

<span>Litmus paper changes its color depending on the pH of the solution or the substance and pH is a measure of the concentration of hydrogen ions of the substance. Turning blue litmus to pink signifies that the solution is an acid. Therefore, the correct answer among the choices given is option A. A pH of 3.4 will change blue litmus paper to red.</span>

A balloon is filled with 500mL of helium at a temp of 27C and 75mmHg. What volume in mL will it have when it reaches an altitude
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: V = 60.3 ml

Explanation:

Data

V1 = 500 ml

T1 = 27°C = 300°K

P1 = 75 mmHg = 0.098 atm

V2 = ?

T2 = - 33°C = 240°K

P2 = 0.65 atm

Formula

                            \frac{P1V1}{T1}  = \frac{P2V2}{T2}

                            V2 = \frac{P1V1T2}{T1P2}

                            V2 = \frac{(0.098)(500)(240)}{(300)(0.65)} \

                            V2 = \frac{11769}{195}

                            V2 = 60.3 ml

Measurements show that unknown compound has the following composition: element mass 62.1 % carbon, 10.5 % hydrogen and 27.6 % ox
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

C3H6O

Explanation:

The percentage composition of the elements in the compound are given as follows:

62.1 % carbon = 62.1g of C

10.5 % hydrogen = 10.5g of H

27.6 % oxygen = 27.6g of O

Next, we convert each mass to mole by dividing by their molar/atomic mass

C = 62.1/12 = 5.175mol

H = 10.5/1 = 10.5mol

O = 27.6/16 = 1.725mol

Next, we divide each mole value by the smallest mole value (1.725)

C = 5.175mol ÷ 1.725 = 3

H = 10.5mol ÷ 1.725 = 6.086

O = 1.725mol ÷ 1.725 = 1

The empirical ratio approximately of C:H:O is 3:6:1, hence, the empirical formula is C3H6O

An element from Group 2 will form ionic bonds with
Wewaii [24]

An element from Group 2 will form ionic bonds with a nonmetal, Groups 13-17

Explanation:

An ionic bond is formed between a "metal and non-metal". The valence electrons are lost in one and gained in the other atom. It involves electrostatic forces between the two ions which are of opposite charges.  

When one atom(metal) losses an electron, it becomes a "positive ion". Similarly, when the other atom(non-metal) gains an electron it becomes a negative ion. For example: The formation of NaF(Sodium Fluoride).
