Answer: B) vinegar

Explanation: Acids are those substances which when dissolved in water give H^+ ions. They turn blue litmus red.

Bases are those substances which when dissolved in water give OH^- ions. They turn red litmus blue.

Ammonia is a base which when dissolved in water forms ammonium hydroxide and gives OH^- ions and turns red litmus blue.

NH_4OH\rightarrow NH_4^++OH^-

Vinegar is acetic acid and thus gives H^+ ions and turn blue litmus red.

CH_3COOH\rightarrow CH_3COO^-+H^+

Baking soda is a basic salt NaHCO_3 which turns red litmus blue.

Distilled water H_2O is neutral which shows no color change with red or blue litmus.

The mass of a single gold atom is 3.27×10-22 grams. how many gold atoms would there be in 236 milligrams of gold?
blsea [12.9K]

The amount of gold atoms could be calculated by dividing the total weight of the gold with the mass of a single gold atom. Just convert the given weight to grams then divide it with 3.27x10^-22 grams. The answer would be 7.22x10^20.

A ray of light traveling in air strikes the surface of a liquid. if the angle of incidence is 29.7◦ and the angle of refraction
lana66690 [7]
When light moves from a medium with higher refractive index to a medium with lower refractive index, the critical angle is the angle above which there is no refracted ray, and it is given by:
\theta_c = \arcsin ( \frac{n_r}{n_i} ) (2)
where n_r is the refractive index of the second medium and n_i is the refractive index of the first medium.

We can find the ratio n_r / n_i by using Snell's law:
n_i \sin \theta_i = n_r \sin \theta_r (1)
where
\theta_i is the angle of incidence
\theta_r is the angle of refraction

By using the data of the problem and re-arranging (1), we find
\frac{n_r}{n_i} =  \frac{\sin \theta_i}{\sin \theta_r} = \frac{\sin 16.3^{\circ}}{\sin 29.7^{\circ}} =0.566

and if we use eq.(2) we can now find the value of the critical angle:
\theta_c = \arcsin ( \frac{n_r}{n_i} ) = \arcsin (0.566) = 34.5^{\circ}

What happens to the pressure in all parts of a confined fluid if the pressure in one part is increased?
Sauron [17]

Answer:

The pressure will be transmitted equally to all other parts of the confined fluid causing a general increase in pressure throughout the container.

Explanation:

This is in line with pascal's law of pressure which states that the pressure exerted on a given mass of fluid is transmitted undiminished to other parts of the fluid.
