The concentration of hydroxide ions is greater than the concentration of hydronium ions for acidic solutions. true or false

Chemistry

Answer: False

Explanation:

pH is defined as the negative logarithm of hydronium ion concentration present in the solution.

$pH=-log[H_3O^+]$

If the solution has low hydronium ion concentration than hydroxide ion concentration, the pH will be high and the solution will be basic. The pH range of basic solution is 7.1 to 14

If the solution has high hydronium ion concentration than hydroxide ion concentration, the pH will be low and the solution will be acidic. The pH range of acidic solution is 0 to 6.9.

The solution having pH equal to 7 is termed as neutral solution.

Thus the given statement is False.

13. An aerosol spray can of deodorant with a volume of 0.410 L contains 3.0 g of propane gas (CH3) as propellant. What is the pr

qaws [65]

Answer: The pressure in the can is 4.0 atm

Explanation:

According to ideal gas equation:

$PV=nRT$

P = pressure of gas = ?

V = Volume of gas = 0.410 L

n = number of moles = $\frac{\text {given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}=\frac{3.0g}{44.1g/mol}=0.068mol$

R = gas constant = $0.0821Latm/Kmol$

T =temperature = $20^0C=(20+273)K=293K$

$P=\frac{nRT}{V}$

$P=\frac0.068mol\times 0.0820 L atm/K mol\times 293K}{0.410L}=4.0atm$

Thus the pressure in the can is 4.0 atm

What is the composition, in atom percent, of an alloy that consists of a) 5.5 wt% Pb and b) 94.5 wt% of Sn? Assume that the atom

Anastaziya [24]

Answer : The percent composition of Pb and Sn in atom is, 3.21 % and 96.8 % respectively.

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the number of atoms in 5.5 wt% Pb and 94.5 wt% of Sn.

As, 207.2 g of lead contains $6.022\times 10^{23}$ atoms

So, 5.5 g of lead contains $\frac{5.5}{207.2}\times 6.022\times 10^{23}=1.59\times 10^{22}$ atoms

and,

As, 118.71 g of lead contains $6.022\times 10^{23}$ atoms

So, 94.5 g of lead contains $\frac{94.5}{118.71}\times 6.022\times 10^{23}=4.79\times 10^{23}$ atoms

Now we have to calculate the percent composition of Pb and Sn in atom.

$\% \text{Composition of Pb}=\frac{\text{Atoms of Pb}}{\text{Atoms of Pb}+\text{Atoms of Sn}}\times 100$

$\% \text{Composition of Pb}=\frac{1.59\times 10^{22}}{(1.59\times 10^{22})+(4.79\times 10^{23})}\times 100=3.21\%$

and,

$\% \text{Composition of Sn}=\frac{\text{Atoms of Sn}}{\text{Atoms of Pb}+\text{Atoms of Sn}}\times 100$

$\% \text{Composition of Sn}=\frac{4.79\times 10^{23}}{(1.59\times 10^{22})+(4.79\times 10^{23})}\times 100=96.8\%$

Thus, the percent composition of Pb and Sn in atom is, 3.21 % and 96.8 % respectively.

How many “p” orbital in principal energy level below?

marshall27 [118]

Answer:

Each principal energy level above the first contains one s orbital and three p orbitals. A set of three p orbitals, called the p sublevel, can hold a maximum of six electrons. Therefore, the second level can contain a maximum of eight electrons - that is, two in the s orbital and 6 in the three p orbitals.

What are some bad thing jellyfish do?

True [87]

Jellyfish aren't necessarily bad or do bad things humans do find that the tentacles that happen to "shock" or "electructe" people are bad. As well as the way jellyfish live in one grouping it is rare but you can find jellyfish out of a group, they do this that way they can eat and stay away from predators.

I hope this helped you!
