They are asking you for OH- ions concentration, which is why you have to find the pOH of the solution. You can easily do this with this formula:

pH + pOH = 14

Solve for pOH and you get:

pOH = 14 - pH

Replace the pH with it's value:

pOH = 14 - 11.8
pOH = 2.2

Now that you have the pOH you can find the concentration of OH- ions with this formula:

pOH = -log[OH-]

Solve the formula for [OH-] and you get:

[OH-] = 10^(-pOH)

Now replace pOH with it's value:

[OH-] = 10^(-2.2)
[OH-] = 0.006309 M

The concentration of OH- atoms is 0.006309M or in the scientific notation 6.309×10^(-3)M

Which group of extremophiles does thermus aquaticus belong to

Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

The correct answer is thermophiles.

Explanation:

Thermus aquaticus are heat resistant bacteria because these bacteria can survive under adverse environmental conditions like high temperature.

These bacteria belong to one of the most heat-loving groups of extremophiles that are thermophiles. Thermophiles are present in volcanic soil, geysers and around deep-sea vents where the temperature is extremely high.

Thermus aquaticus bacteria is used to manufacture an enzyme called Taq DNA polymerase, which is heat resistant and also an important factor in molecular biology.

A 46.9 gram sample of a substance has a volume of about 3.5 centimeters3. It is solid at a room temperature of 23ºC. Out of the

horrorfan [7]

Answer : (C) Hafnium is the most likely identity of the given substance.

Solution : Given,

Mass of given substance (m) = 46.9 g

Volume of given substance (V) = 3.5 $Cm^{3}$

First, find the Density of given substance.

Formula used :

$Density=\frac{\text{Mass of given substance}}{\text{Voume of given substance}}$

Now,put all the values in this formula, we get

$Density=\frac{46.9 g}{3.5 Cm^{3} }$ = 13.4 g/ $Cm^{3}$

So, we conclude that the density of given substance (13.4 g/ $Cm^{3}$ ) is approximately equal to the density of Mercury and Hafnium (13.53 and 13.31 g/ $Cm^{3}$ respectively).

According to the question the substance is solid at room temperature but Mercury is liquid at room temperature. So, Mercury is not identical to the given substance.

Another element i.e, Hafnium is the element whose density is approximately equal to the given substance and also solid at room temperature. And we know that the melting point of solid is high.

So, Hafnium is the most likely element which is the identity of the given substance.
