A student went to the dentist and found out that he had a cavity. He always brushes his teeth twice a day, so he didn't understa

nd how he got a cavity. The dentist told him that drinking things every day that are acidic, such as lemonade, can contribute to cavities. He didn't drink lemonade but does drink a variety of other drinks.
The next day he brought in a sample of each drink and asked his science teacher to borrow a pH probe to test each liquid. The pH of Drink A is 11.9, Drink B is 7.0, Drink C is 5.3, Drink D is 9.8, Drink E is 2.4. Explain which drink(s) the student should avoid if he wants to protect his teeth from further damage.



In your response, be sure to include:

1. an explanation of what pH measures

2. which drinks are acidic, basic, and neutral.

Ph measures how acidic or basic something is. The lower the number the more acidic it is going to be.

Drink A is basic, he can drink that

Drink B is neutral, he can drink that

Drink C is acidic, he should avoid

Drink D is basic, he can drink that

Drink E is acidic, he should avoid

Which of the following samples would be the most compressible?
Andrej [43]

Answer:

CO2 (g)

Explanation:

In solids the interatomic or intermolecular space is least . It is most pronounced in gases . That is why inter molecular or interatomic attraction is least in gases . That is why gas flows .

Hence , when we try to compress a gas , due to inter molecular space , it is most likely to get compressed . It will be least compressed when we try to compress a solid because of lack of intermolecular space .

What is the classification of a solution of naoh with a ph of 8.3?
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

  • <u>Alkaline or basic solution </u>(alkaline and basic means the same)

Explanation:

According to the <em>pH</em>,  solutions may be classified as neutral, acidic, or alkaline (basic).

This table shows such classification:

pH               classification

  7                   neutral

> 7                   alkaline or basic

< 7                   acidic

Thus, since the pH of the solution is 8.3, which is greater than 7, the solution is classified as basic (alkaline).

Additionally, you must learn that pH is a logarithmic scale for the concentration of hydronium ions in the solution.

  • pH = - log [H₃O⁺]

You can calculate the concentration of hydronium ions using antilogarithm properties:

pH=-log[H_3O^+]\\ \\ {[H_3O^+]}=10^{-pH}\\ \\ {[H_3O^+]}=10^{-8.3}=0.00000000501

NaOH solutions are alkaline solutions, bases, according to Arrhenius model,  because they contain OH⁻ ions and release them when ionize in water.

A force of 100 newtons is applied to a box at an angle of 36º with the horizontal. If the mass of the box is 25 kilograms, what
notka56 [123]

Answer:

a_x=4.944m/s^2

Explanation:

Hello,

Based on the acting force that is applied horizontally, one can propose the following equation based on Newton's laws:

F=ma

Nevertheless, since we've got a angled force, it becomes:

F=macos\theta

In this case, cos\theta accounts for the formed angle, so the horizontal acceleration turns out into:

a_x=\frac{F}{mcos\theta}=\frac{100kg*\frac{m}{s^2} }{25kgcos(36^0)}=4.944m/s^2

Best regads.

Try to rationalize the sign of ΔS∘rxn in each case.
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

a) decrease, gas

b) increase, gas

c) liquid

d) increase, solid

Explanation:

Entropy refers to the degree of disorderliness of a system. If the number of moles of gas increases from left to right in a reaction, the entropy of the system increases positively.

Similarly, when the number of liquid molecules remain constant, there could only be a very little increase in entropy.

However, solids have the least entropy and the entropy of a system decreases when a system yields solid products.
