Answer:

Solution Y is more acidic

Explanation:

The pH value is an indicator of the concentration of hydrogen ions (H⁺) in an aqueous solution, and it is defined as:

pH= -log [H⁺]

⇒ [H^{+} ]= 10^{-pH}

Where  [H⁺] is the concentration of H⁺. A solution with a higher concentration of H⁺ is more acidic, and a solution with a lower concentration of H⁺ is less acidic or basic.

As result, <em>the lower the pH, the more the concentration of hydrogen ions ([H⁺]), and the aqueous solution is more acidic</em>.

Solution Y has a lower pH value (7.5) than solution X (9.4). So, solution Y is more acidic.

Misha Larkins [42]

Explanation:

Let the volume of the solution be 100 ml.

As the volume of glycol = 50 = volume of water

Hence, the number of moles of glycol = \frac{mass}{molar mass}

                                                  = \frac{density \times volume}{molar mass}

                         = \frac{1.1088 \times 50}{62 g/mol}

                         = 0.894 mol

Hence, number of moles of water = \frac{50 \times 0.998}{18}

                                             = 2.77

As glycol is dissolved in water.

So, the molality = 0.894 \times \frac{1000}{49.92}

                           = 17.9

Therefore, the expected freezing point = -1.86 \times 17.9

                                                                  = -33.31^{o}C

Thus, we can conclude that the expected freezing point is -33.31^{o}C.

Water can be a solid
Degger [83]

Explanation:

Transpiration: This is the evaporation of liquid water from plants and trees into the Earth's atmosphere. Nearly all water that enters the roots transpires into the atmosphere. Sublimation: This is the process where ice and snow (a solid) changes into a gas without moving through the liquid phase

In order to reduce the exposure to organic solvents like turpentine, some art instructors recommend the students clean brushes a
kykrilka [37]
Generally speaking, organic molecules tend to dissolve in solvents that have similar physical properties. A good rule of thumb is that "like dissolves like". Meaning, polar compounds can dissolve polar compounds and nonpolar compounds can dissolve nonpolar compounds.

To apply this to the current problem, we are told that the brushes are being cleaned with vegetable oil or mineral oil. In this case, the oils are used as solvents. In order for these solvents to be effective, the compounds they are trying to dissolve must be similar in structure and properties to other oils. Therefore, vegetable oil or mineral oil will be most effective in removing oil-based paints, as these will have the similar properties needed to dissolve in the oil solvents.

When designing an engineering solution, certain criteria and constraints must be considered. Criteria are the features of the de
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

The criteria listed in order of importance are;

1) To be inflated in the event of a collision in order to protect the occupants of the front of the vehicle

2) To be able to withstand the load of the breaking force of the occupants in the front seat of the vehicle during a collision

3) To be relatively tough so as to resist being torn on impact with a sharp object

The constraints listed in order of importance are;

1) How is the model design able to sense a collision that requires the airbag to be inflated

2) The uncertainty of the load the airbag will withstand upon collision

3) The possible hazard that could be caused by the gas used to inflate the airbag

4) The usage/interaction tendency between the vehicle occupant and the airbag system

Explanation:

In order to produce an effective design, it is important to be able to foresee the possible deficiencies of an idea so as to be able to mitigate the problems before an actual incident happens.
