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

Describe the size, brightness, temperature of a Neutron star/ Protostar:
vodomira [7]
Neutron star: a newly formed neutron star can have a temperature of about 10^11 Kelvin to 10^12 Kelvin, but it can drop to 10^6 Kelvin. Its brightness is a million times fainter than the sun's brightness because of its size and distance from a point of view.

Dwarf star: Yellow dwarfs are small, main sequence star. <span>Red dwarfs are the most common type of star, </span>it's a small, cool, very faint, main sequence star whose surface temperature is under about 4,000 K.

Main sequence: has a temperature of about 10 million K. Its luminosity depends on the size and the mass of the star.

Red Giant: not normally as bright as the main sequence but it can create 1,000 to 10,000 times the luminosity that the sun gives off. The outer atmosphere is inflated, making the surface temperature to be as low as 5,000 K.
 
Supergiant: These stars have very "cool" surface temperatures that can range between 3500 and 4500 K (more or less). Depending on proximity, size, and mass, their luminosity can be either very high or very dim... though, they are normally very large stars.

A compound is 150.86 g carbon, 8.86 g hydrogen, and 20.10 g oxygen by
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

C20 H14 O2

Explanation:

Remark

This is a sample, which the question does not say and should. It is a fraction of 1 mole. So what you have to do is multiply the numbers given by x and equate it to 286.28

Equation

150,86* x + 8.86*x + 20.1*x  = 286.28

179.8x = 286.28

x = 286.26/179.8

x = 1.592

Now multiply the given numbers by 1.592

150.86 * 1.592 = 240.58

8.85 * 1.592 = 14.1

20.1 * 1.592 = 32

Rounding you get

240/12 = 20

14.1/1 = 14

32/16 = 2

C20 H14 O2
