Blue litmus paper turns red in the presence of an acid. Therefore, it can be assumed that the substance in the beaker is an acid.

Acids have a pH level of less than 7. Consequently, it can be assumed that the substance has a pH level less than 7.

liberstina [14]

Answer:

The cation affects the intensity of the color more than the color of the solution.

Explanation:

According to Beer Lambert law, the intensity of the colour of the solution depends on the concentration of the specie responsible for the colour in the solution.

Let us recall that transition metal compounds are coloured in solution due to electronic transitions.

Therefore, the cation affects the intensity of the color more than the color of the solution.

Carbon dioxide dissolves in water to form carbonic acid, which is primarily dissolved CO2. Dissolved CO2 satisfies the equilibri

lorasvet [3.4K]

Explanation:

The reaction equation will be as follows.

$CO_{2}(aq) + H_{2}O \rightleftharpoons H^{+}(aq) + HCO^{-}_{3}(aq)$

Calculate the amount of $CO_{2}$ dissolved as follows.

$CO_{2}(aq) = K_{CO_{2}} \times P_{CO_{2}}$

It is given that $K_{CO_{2}}$ = 0.032 M/atm and $P_{CO_{2}}$ = $1.9 \times 10^{-4}$ atm.

Hence, $[CO_{2}]$ will be calculated as follows.

$[CO_{2}]$ = $K_{CO_{2}} \times P_{CO_{2}}$

= $0.032 M/atm \times 1.9 \times 10^{-4}atm$

= $0.0608 \times 10^{-4}$

or, = $0.608 \times 10^{-5}$

It is given that $K_{a} = 4.46 \times 10^{-7}$

As, $K_{a} = \frac{[H^{+}]^{2}}{[CO_{2}]}$

$4.46 \times 10^{-7} = \frac{[H^{+}]^{2}}{0.608 \times 10^{-5}}$

$[H^{+}]^{2}$ = $2.71 \times 10^{-12}$

$[H^{+}]$ = $1.64 \times 10^{-6}$

Since, we know that pH = $-log [H^{+}]$

So, pH = $-log (1.64 \times 10^{-6})$

= 5.7

Therefore, we can conclude that pH of water in equilibrium with the atmosphere is 5.7.

A balloon is filled with 35.0 L of helium in the morning when the temperature is 35.00 oC.

nexus9112 [7]

Answer: V = 33.9 L

Explanation: We will use Charles Law to solve for the new volume.

Charles Law is expressed in the following formula. Temperatures must be converted in Kelvin.

V1 / T1 = V2 / T2 then derive for V2

V2 = V1 T2 / T1

= 35 L ( 308 K ) / 318 K

= 33.9 L
