Answer:

3 to 5

Explanation:

The pH scale is from 0 to 14.

Acids have a pH of anything less than 7.

Anything with a pH greater than 7 is considered to be a base.

If a solution has a pH of 7, it is neutral.

3 to 5 is in the range of less than 7, so a solution of an acid can have this pH.

6 to 8 includes less than 7 , 7 and greater than 7, so it is not just in the range of an acid.

9 to 11 and 12 to 14 are both in the range of greater than 7, so they have to be bases.

Therefore, the correct answer is 3 to 5.

Liula [17]

Answer:

meander

Explanation:

A meander is the the “winding” shape that a river can take. It is is one of a series of regular sinuous curves, bends, loops, turns, or windings in the channel of a river, stream, or other watercourse(wikipedia).

A meander is formed when water in the river erodes the banks just outside its channel. The water then deposits some sediments inside the channel.

Which statement correctly describes an atom of the element helium? A. An atom of helium has a full outer energy level and is the

Citrus2011 [14]

The correct description for an atom of helium would be option C. An atom of helium has its valence electrons in its first energy level, it wouldn't and can't satisfy the Octet rule as it only has 2 electrons, but with 2, it has a full shell, as the first energy level can hold only 2 electrons.

Modeling Nuclear Processes Quick Check

Valentin [98]

The phrase which best describes nuclear fusion is: A. the process by which small nuclei combine into a larger nucleus.

A nuclear reaction can be defined as a type of chemical reaction in which the nucleus of an atom of a radioactive chemical element is transformed by either being joined (fusion) or split (fission) with the nucleus of another atom of a radioactive chemical element and accompanied by a release of energy.

Generally, there are two (2) main types of nuclear reaction and these include:

<u>Nuclear fission:</u> it involves the collision of a heavy atomic nucleus with a neutron, thereby causing a split and release of energy.

<u>Nuclear fusion:</u> it involves the joining of two smaller nuclei of atoms to form a single massive or heavier (larger) nucleus with the release of energy.

In conclusion, nuclear fusion is best described as the process by which small nuclei combine into a larger nucleus, accompanied by a release of energy.

Calculate the number of pounds of CO2CO2 released into the atmosphere when a 22.0 gallon22.0 gallon tank of gasoline is burned i

Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

391.28771 pounds of carbon-dioxide was released into the atmosphere when 22.0 gallon tank of gasoline is burned in an automobile engine.

Explanation:

Density of the gasoline ,d= 0.692 g/mL

Volume of gasoline in an tanks,V = 22.0 gallons = 83,279.02 mL

Let mass of the gasoline be M

$Density= \frac{Mass}{Volume}$

M = V × d = 83,279.02 mL × 0.692 g/mL=57,629.081 g

Given that gasoline is primarily octane.

$2C_8H_{18}+25O_2\rightarrow 16CO_2+18H_2O$

Mass of octane burnt in the tank = M = 57,629.081 g

Moles of octane = $\frac{57,629.081 g}{114.08g/mol}=505.1637 mol$

According to reaction, 2 moles of octane gives 16 moles of carbon-dioxide.

Then 505.1637 mol of octane will give:

$\frac{16}{2}\times 505.1637 mol=4,041.3100 mol$ of carbon-dioxide

Mass of 4,041.3100 mol of carbon-dioxide:

4,041.3100 mol × 44.01 g/mol = 177,858.05 g

Mass of carbon-dioxide produced in pounds = 391.28771 pounds

391.28771 pounds of carbon-dioxide was released into the atmosphere when 22.0 gallon tank of gasoline is burned in an automobile engine.

what would be the effect on the melting point of a sample if it were not dried completely after filtering the recrystallized sam

jok3333 [9.3K]

The melting point of the sample if it is not dried completely after filtering the recrystallized product will have a broad range and will occur at lower range than the actual value.

What is melting point?

Melting point is the temperature at which the solid form of a given substance changes to the liquid form at atmospheric pressure. It is important because, by using the physical property of a substance the substance can be identified.

The sharp range melting point of the substance indicates the purity of the substance. If the sample is not dried completely after recrystallisation, the melting point will have a broad range.

Therefore, if the sample given is not dried completely, it will be impure and the decreases the melting point of the substance. So the actual melting point of the substance cannot be determined.
