What she should do to correct this situation is to add acid.
Bases have pH levels over 7, and acids have pH levels under 7. So if she wants to lower the level of pH in the pool, she should add acid in order to neutralize the pH levels so that people can swim in the pool without their skin getting irritated or something even more severe.

A sample of water is heated from 10 °C to 50 °C using 286 J of energy. What is the mass of water that was heated? help
LenKa [72]

Answer:

Mass of water == 1.71 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial temperature of water = 10°C

Final temperature of water = 50°C

Energy absorbed = 286 J

Mass of water = ?

Solution:

Specific heat capacity:

It is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of substance by one degree.

Specific heat capacity of water is 4.18 J/g.°C

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

ΔT =  50°C -  10°C

ΔT = 40°C

by putting  values,

286 J = m × 4.18 J/g.°C × 40°C

286 J = m × 167.2 J/g

m = 286 J / 167.2 J/g

m = 1.71 g

Isotopic notation of phosphorus-29
Ber [7]

Isotopic notation of phosphorus-29 is  _{15} ^{29} P

Explanation:

  • Isotopes are atoms with equal number of protons but different number of neutrons at its nucleus.
  • The isotopic notation for any element can be written as _{Z} ^{A} X where X represents the chemical symbol ,A represents mass number and Z represents atomic number
  • The atomic number for phosphorus is  15
  • Isotope's mass number for phosphorus-29 is 29
  • The chemical symbol for phosphorus is  P
  • Hence Isotopic notation is  _{15} ^{29} P
  • Number of neutrons = 29-15 =14
  • Number of protons=atomic number =15

Why is atomic mass measured in atomic mass units (amu)?
xenn [34]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Protons and neutrons make up nearly all the mass of an atom, and each is worth 1 amu. Each atom of an element has a mass measured in amu; thus, its weighted average, or atomic mass, is measured in amu.

Electrons are way way way....lighter so protons and neutrons are taken into account when doing atomic mass.

A photon of light with a frequency of 2.74 x 1014 Hz collides with an electron. How much energy
sesenic [268]

Answer:

1.82x10⁻¹⁹Joules is the energy of the photon that is absorbed by the electron.

Explanation:

The energy of a photon is given by the equation:

E = h×ν

<em>Where E is energy of the photon in Joules.</em>

<em>h is Planck's constant (6.6262x10⁻³⁴Js)</em>

<em>And ν is frequency of the photon (In Hz = s⁻¹)</em>

<em />

The frequency of the photon is 2.74x10¹⁴Hz. That means its energy is:

E = 6.6262x10⁻³⁴Js × 2.74x10¹⁴s⁻¹

E =

<h3>1.82x10⁻¹⁹Joules is the energy of the photon that is absorbed by the electron</h3>
