Black_prince [1.1K]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Here's what I get  

Explanation:

At the introductory level of chemistry, I can think of only two situations when you use Greek prefixes.

They indicate the number of atoms or groups in a molecule when you are naming a compound.

1. Binary covalent compounds

For example, P₂S₅ is diphosphorus pentasulfide.

2. Hydrates

For example, Na₂SO₄·10H₂O is sodium sulfate decahydrate.

Which of the following pairs of elements could possibly be in the same group? X has a 1+ ion; Y has a 1- ion. X tends to form a
exis [7]
Let's eliminate these one by one.
The first pair would not be the same, as X would most likely be in group IA, and Y would be in group VIIA, because of their tendency to gain and lose electrons.
The second pair would also violate the same rule, but X would most likely be in group IIA, and Y would most likely be in group VIA.
The third pair would not be the same, as X is most likely in group VIIA, and since Y has eight valence electrons, it is most likely a noble gas.
The final pair has X with atomic number 15, making it phosphorous. Phosphorous wants to gain 3 electrons to have a full octet of 8 outer "valence" electrons, and Y would also like to gain 3 electrons. This means it is possible that the final pair would be in the same group.

If the pH of vinegar is 3.0, what is the concentration of H+ in vinegar?
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer: The concentration of H^{+} ions in vinegar is 0.001 M.

Explanation:

Given: pH = 3.0

pH is the negative logarithm of concentration of hydrogen ion.

The expression for pH is as follows.

pH = - log [H^{+}]

Substitute the value into above expression as follows.

pH = - log [H^{+}]\\3.0 = - log [H^{+}]\\conc. of H^{+} = antilog (- 3.0)\\= 0.001 M

Thus, we can conclude that the concentration of H^{+} ions in vinegar is 0.001 M.

Veronica is taking an average of 16 height measurements in a brand-new experiment. Which term is this the best example of? repli
Karolina [17]

Answer:

repetition

Explanation:

Taking an average of 16 height measurements is an example of repetition. Repetition involves making and taking repeated measurements in an experiment.

The goal is to achieve a highly accurate and precise data from the experiment.

  • Replication involves duplicating another experiment and testing to see how valid they are.
  • Since Veronica's experiment is a brand new one, it's hypothesis has not been tested or replicated in any way.
  • Therefore, it is not a replication.
  • But she is repeating the experiment to obtain different values.
