The answer is solute, solvent 

<span>In a solution, a solute the component which is present in lesser amount while a solvent is present in greater amount.  </span>Since nitrogen is present in a greater amount than oxygen (78% > 21%), then the oxygen must be the solute and the nitrogen must be the solvent in the air.

Answer:

<h2>5.35 </h2>

Explanation:

The pH of a solution can be found by using the formula

pH = - log [ {H}^{+} ]

We have

pH =  -  log(4.5 \times  {10}^{ - 6} )  \\  = 5.346787...

We have the final answer as

<h3>5.35 </h3>

1.20×10−8s to nanoseconds
AveGali [126]

Answer:

There are 12 nanoseconds in 1.2\times 10^{-8}\ s.

Explanation:

We need to convert 1.2\times 10^{-8}\ s to nanoseconds.

We know that,

1\ s=10^9\ ns

Now using unitary method to solve it such that,

1.2\times 10^{-8}\ s=1.2\times 10^{-8}\ \times 10^9\\\\=1.2\times 10\\\\=12\ ns

So, there are 12 nanoseconds in 1.2\times 10^{-8}\ s.

1. What is the molarity of a solution which contains 0.256 mol of a substance dissolved in 143 mL of solution.
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

The equation for molarity is moles/liter for the first question you would do 0.256/0.143 liters to get 1.790 mol/L

Explanation:

The second problem you would do need to find the moles of NaCl which you would do by doing 4.89 g/58.44g/mol= 0.08367 then do 0.08367/0.600= 0.139 mol/L

The third problem would be the same steps as the second one.

The fourth problem would be (0.460M)(5.50L)= 2.53 moles
