Answer:

The concentration of Hydrogen Cation is:

Pure water is<u> NEUTRAL</u>

Explanation:

pH = It is negative logarithm of activity of Hydrogen ions.

$pH = - log(a_{[H^{+}]})$

Activity = concentration for dilute solutions

There are three types of solution based on pH:

1. Acidic solution : Those solution which have pH between 0 to 7 or less than 7 are acidic in nature . They turns blue litmus red.They contain more H+ ions than OH- ions

2. Basic : Those solution which have pH value greater that 7 of between 7 to 14 are basic in nature . They turn red litmus blue.They contain more OH- ions then H+ ions

3 . Neutral : Those solution which have pH = 7 are neutral . They are neither acidic nor basic in nature .They have equa;l concentration of H+ and OH- ions in the solution.

The given water has pH = 7 .This means it is neutral and has low H+ ion concentration in solution. The H+ ion are :

$10^{-7}$ M in water.

OH- =

$10^{-7}$ M in water

So overall neutral

Consider the following reaction:

Sidana [21]

Your limiting is CuCI2 and the excess is KI (from what i’ve heard from my tc to find it just use the moles or look at the grams)Do you want me to do the qn and give u the ans or?

Explanation:You have more grams of KI than CuCI2
irl example : I need 200g of flour to bake 1 muffin and 100g of butter.But I have 300g of butter and only 200g of flour.This means I can only bake up to 1 muffin since I got excess grams of butter.But to use up all my 300g of butter I need 400g more of flour.Making my butter the excess while my flour the limiting since I have less of it and it also determines how much muffin would I get at the end of the bake.

im sorry if that example sounds clowny T-T

When a nucleus undergoes nuclear decay by gamma rays the atomic number of the element?

kifflom [539]

I believe that when a nucleus undergoes a nuclear decay by gamma rays the atomic number of element remains the same. Atomic number is the number of protons of a given atom of an element. Gamma decay unlike alpha and beta decay does not have an effect on the mass number and atomic number of an atom.
