Answer:
<em>C: After 1 hour, the pH of the solution in the PEPCID AC beaker was 9.2 and the pH of the solution in the Alka-Seltzer beaker was 8.3</em>
Explanation:
The degree of acidity or alkalinity/basicity of a substance is its pH. The value of pH ranges from 1 to 14 with the former being extreme acidity and the latter being extreme alkalinity while pH 7 is considered neutral.
Hence, any pH below 7 is considered acidic and above 7 is considered alkaline.
Reactions involving equal volumes of an acid and a base can end in acidic, alkaline or neutral pH depending on the strength of the acid/base involved;
- Equal volumes of strong acid with strong base will result in neutral pH
- Equal volumes of weak acid with strong base will result in alkaline pH
- Equal volume of strong acid with weak base will result in acidic pH
If substance A and B reacts with equal volume of the same acid under the same condition and the end result of A is a solution with pH of 9.2 and that of B is a pH of 8.3, it simply means substance A is a stronger base than substance B.
<em>Hence, the only outcome that supports the hypothesis that a tablet of PEPCID AC can neutralize more stomach acid than a tablet of Alka-Seltzer is that the pH of the solution in the PEPCID AC beaker was 9.2 and the pH of the solution in the Alka-Seltzer beaker was 8.3 after being subjected to the same condition.</em>
If an indigestion is due to excess stomach acid, the only way to reduce the acidity is to consume a substance that will decrease the degree of acidity in the stomach. This means that the patient will need to consume something that is alkaline in order to increase the pH.
The surviving R strain transformed into a living S strain.
The heat from the bonfire is transferred to the student's hands mainly, but not exclusively, through the process of RADIATION.
There are three mechanisms or processes of heat transfer: conduction, convection, and ratiation.
Conduction is carreid out by contact; it requires that the two objects are touching each other. This is not the case.
Convection is the heat transferred by the movement of the fluids (liquids ang gases). In some extent this happens in this case, but it is not the dominant effect becasue air is not a very good conductor. Specially if there is not much air movement (wind).
Thermal radiation is carried out by electromagnetic waves. When there is a source of intense heat, like the fire, the heat is propagated by radiation.
Then really, the heat from the bonfire gets to the student's hands by convection and radiation, but as fire is very intense (its temperature is very high), and as long as the air is calmed, the dominant process is radiation. If there is wind, convection starts to be important.
A Fossil Fuel is the highest
b Nuclear goes down during 2005-2015 but solar is the lowest through it all but it seems to increase a little between 2005-2015 so I’m not sure which one but it’s between those two
