<h3>Answer:</h3>

pH = 8.66

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

The pH refers to the acidity or alkalinity of a solution.
It is calculated by getting the negative logarithm of Hydrogen ions concentration.

pH=-log[H⁺]

In this case;

we are given [OH⁻] as 4.6 x 10^-6 M

We are required to calculate the pH

We need to know that;

pH + pOH = 14

pOH = -log[OH⁻]

To get the pH we can calculate the pOH first,

pOH = -log[4.6 x 10^-6 M]

= 5.34

but, pH + pOH = 14

Therefore, pH = 14 - pOH

= 14 - 5.34

= 8.66

Therefore, the pH of the solution is 8.66

shtirl [24]

Answer:

The correct option is;

Group 12

Explanation:

A metallic element that is shiny and silver colored that can exist in the +1 and +2 ionic states and which forms a bright red compound with sulfur is mercury, Hg

The compound formed between mercury and silver is one of the earliest synthetic compound also known as vermilion and cinnabar. The bright red pigment of the HgS is used widely and is one of the most favorite pigment found in medieval European outstanding works of arts and in Chinese decorated wares made of lacquer as well as in mesoAmerica.

How can you tell if a chemical equation is balanced

k0ka [10]

Answer:

A chemical equation is balanced when the number of each kind of atom is the same on both sides of the reaction.

Explanation:

The law of conservation of matter (except in nuclear reactions) indicates that atoms can neither be created or destroyed.

The number of atoms that are in the reactants must be the same as the number of the atoms that are in the product.

The number and types of molecules can (and will) change. The atoms that make up the molecules are rearranged but the number and kinds of atoms stay the same.

WWW<br> 7. What is the subscript for Hydrogen?

Korolek [52]

Answer: In the chemical formula for water, the subscript for hydrogen is 2. Notice that the 2 is smaller and written slightly below the H and O. It is called a subscript because it is written ("script") "below" ("sub") the preceding letter.

A dilute solution of bromine in carbon tetrachloride behaves as an ideal-dilute solution. The vapour pressure of pure CCl4 is 33

ANEK [815]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

Vapour pressure of pure $CCl_{4}$ = 33.85 Torr

Temperature = 298 K

Mole fraction of $Br_{2}$ = 122.36 torr

Therefore, calculate the vapor pressure of $Br_{2}$ as follows.

Vapour pressure of $Br_{2}$ = mole fraction of $Br_{2}$ x K of $Br_{2}$

= 0.050 x 122.36 Torr

= 6.118 Torr

So, vapor pressure of $Br_{2}$ is 6.118 Torr .

Now, calculate the vapor pressure of carbon tetrachloride as follows.

Vapour pressure of $CCl_{4}$ = mole fraction of $CCl_{4}$ x Pressure of $CCl_{4}$

= (1 - 0.050) × 33.85 Torr

= 32.1575 Torr

So, vapor pressure of $CCl_{4}$ is 32.1575 Torr .

Hence, the total pressure will be as follows.

= 6.118 Torr + 32.1575 Torr

= 38.2755 Torr

Therefore, composition of $CCl_{4}$ = $\frac{32.1575 Torr}{38.2755 Torr}$

= 0.8405

Composition of $CCl_{4}$ is 0.8405 .

And, composition of $Br_{2}$ = $\frac{6.118 Torr}{38.2755 Torr}$

= 0.1598

Composition of $Br_{2}$ is 0.1598 .
