Please help with this , thanks you guys very much

I am giving u some explanation related this question pls see that 

it may help u

Explanation:

The pH scale measures how acidic an object is. Objects that are not very acidic are called basic. The scale has values ranging from zero (the most acidic) to 14 (the most basic). As you can see from the pH scale above, pure water has a pH value of 7. This value is considered neutral—neither acidic or basic. Normal, clean rain has a pH value of between 5.0 and 5.5, which is slightly acidic. However, when rain combines with sulfur dioxide or nitrogen oxides—produced from power plants and automobiles—the rain becomes much more acidic. Typical acid rain has a pH value of 4.0. A decrease in pH values from 5.0 to 4.0 means that the acidity is 10 times greater.

How pH is Measured

There are many high-tech devices that are used to measure pH in laboratories. One easy way that you can measure pH is with a strip of litmus paper. When you touch a strip of litmus paper to something, the paper changes color depending on whether the substance is acidic or basic. If the paper turns red, the substance is acidic, and if it turns blue, the substance is basic

Identify the ion ratios needed to form neutral compounds from the ions below. The metal ion (cation) is listed first, and the no

Natasha2012 [34]

To figure out the ratios of these compounds, it is important to remember that the charge of these compounds must be neutral.

So in order to make them neutral, you must have specific ratios:

$Na^{+}: Br^{-} =1:1$ ; This is true because they both have a charge of magnitude of 1.

$Al^{3+}: Cl^{-}=1:3$ ; We need 3 chlorine atoms because we need to balance out the charge from the 3+ charge of aluminum - therefore since chlorine has a 1- charge, we need 3 atoms.

$Mg^{2+}: O^{2-}=1:1$ ; The charges of the magnesium (2+) are balanced with the oxygen charge (2-).

$Al^{3+}: O^{2-}=2:3$ ; This is correct because if charges are like this, you must find the least common factor in order to know the ratio. The LCF is 6, therefore, for the atom with a 3+ charge, you need 2 of them, and for the atom with a 2- charge, you need 3 of them. This keeps the charge neutral.

What is the molarity of 50gram of calcium carbonate is dissolved in 250ML of water

m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

Molar Mass of Calcium Carbonate = 100g

given mass = 50g

Number of mole of Calcium Carbonate =50/100 = 0.5 mole

Molarity = mole per litre of volume

Molarity = 0.5 /0.25 = 2mole/litre
