A man drove his car through the Nevada desert one day when the temperature was over 100°F. When he started the trip, the gas sta

tion attendant found the tire to be 32 lb/in2. When he filled up with gas after crossing the desert, an attendant found the tire pressure to be 38 lb/in2. What is the best explanation for the increase in tire pressure?
The road wear on the tire caused a decrease in volume and, therefore, an increase in tire pressure.
The temperature in the tire increased, causing an increased tire pressure.
The hot temperature caused the springs to expand, which allowed more weight to ride on the tires, thus causing more pressure inside.
The measurements of the pressure were inaccurate. The added weight of the gas caused the extra pressure in the tires.

aniked [119]

Answer:

Higher concentration to an area of lower concentration

Explanation:

When you open a perfume bottle at a corner of a room, after a while, its fragrance can be perceived across a distance at the other end of the room. This is because, molecules of the compound in the fragrance have moved from the area of higher concentration in the perfume bottle, across a concentration gradient to a region of lower concentration at the other end of the room. This is diffusion.

The buffer solution is used to control the pH to insure that it does not become too high because excessively basic solutions cou
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

pH = 12.7

Explanation:

First, we have to calculate the [Ca²⁺] in a solution of about 250 ppm CaCO₃.

\frac{250mgCaCO_{3}}{L} .\frac{1gCaCO_{3}}{1000mgCaCO_{3}} .\frac{1molCa^{2+} }{100gCaCO_{3}} =2.5 \times 10^{-3} M

Now, let's consider the dissolution of Ca(OH)₂ in water.

Ca(OH)₂(s) ⇄ Ca²⁺(aq) + 2 OH⁻(aq)

The solubility product Ksp is:

Ksp = [Ca²⁺] × [OH⁻]²

[OH⁻] = √(Ksp/[Ca²⁺]) = √(6.5 × 10⁻⁶/2.5 × 10⁻³) = 5.1 × 10⁻² M

Finally, we can calculate pOH and pH.

pOH = -log [OH⁻] = -log (5.1 × 10⁻²) = 1.3

pH + pOH = 14 ⇒ pH = 14 - pOH = 14 - 1.3 = 12.7
