NaOH is a strong base and complete dissociation into Na⁺ and OH⁻ ions.
Therefore [NaOH] = [OH⁻]
To calculate the [OH⁻], we can first find the pOH as NaOH is a basic solution.
pH + pOH = 14
Since pH = 11.50
pOH = 14 - 11.50
pOH = 2.50
We can calculate [OH⁻] by knowing pOH
pOH = -log[OH⁻]
[OH⁻] = antilog(-pOH)
[OH⁻] = 3.2 x 10⁻³ M
therefore [NaOH] = 3.2 x 10⁻³ M
Salt hydrates are an important class of PCMs. An inorganic salt hydrate (hydrated salt or hydrate) is an ionic compound in which the ions attract a number of water molecules, which are then trapped inside the crystal lattice. A hydrated salt has the generic formula MxNy. nH2O.
Answer:
Option (D)
Explanation:
<u>Eskers are the long ridges that are comprised of rocks, sands and clay particles and are deposited towards the end of the glaciers</u>. These are fluvioglacial depositional features. These particles are exposed after the glaciers recede. These ridges are formed parallel to the earlier flow direction of ice. The size of eskers is generally smaller as it carries smaller particles such as rocks, sands, and gravels, in comparison to the different type of moraines. It is because the flow velocity decreases as the glaciers melt. So, these eskers are formed at the end of the glaciers.
Thus, the correct answer is option (D).
