Answer:

The correct answer is 399.8 ppm

Explanation:

A concentration in parts per million (ppm) is equal to:

1 ppm = \frac{1 g solute}{10^{6}g solution}= \frac{1 mg solute}{1 kg solution}

Solute: Cd; Mass = 180 mg x (1 g/1000 mg) = 0.18 g

Solvent: Water ; Mass= 450.0 g x (1 kg/1000 g) = 0.45 kg

We have the following total mass of solution:

Mass of solution = Mass of solute + Mass of solvent = 0.18 g + 450 g = 450.18 g = 0.45018 kg

Finally, we divide the <u>mass of solute (in mg)</u> into the <u>mass of solution (in kg)</u> to obtain the ppm (in mg/Kg):

ppm = 180 mg/0.45018 kg = 399.8 mg/Kg = 399.8 ppm

What data do you need to determine the specific heat capacity of a substance?
strojnjashka [21]

Speific heat capacity is measured with the aid of determining how a whole lot warmth electricity is needed to increase one gram of a substance one digree Celsius. The Speific heat capacity of water is 4.2 joules per gram per degree Celsius or 1 calorie in step with gram per digree Celsius.

The specific heat capacity is defined as the amount of heat (J) absorbed consistent with unit mass (kg) of the substance while its temperature increases 1 ok (or 1 °C), and its units are J/(kg k) or J/(kg °C).

Factors specific heat capacity relate to are temperature and strength.

The Speific heat capacity C can be measured as q = mC∆T

Or, C = q/m∆T

where,

C is the specific heat capacity

q is the quantity of heat required

m is the mass

∆T is the change in temperature

As a consequence so as to degree the specific heat capacity we need to recognize mass of the substance, quantity of heat lost or gain by the substance and the exchange in temperature.

Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

B.

Explanation:

when you use punnett squares, you cross the different genes with themselves. if T is in the first box on both sides, the genome will be TT. if the box lines up to tt, it will be tt. the boxes on the left use the genes' first letter and the boxes on the right use the second letter.

An amphoteric salt is one that contains an anion that can act as either an acid or a base in water. Baking soda, NaHCO3, is an e
LenKa [72]

Answer:

pH = 8.34

Explanation:

The equilbriums of the amphoteric HCO₃⁻ (Ion of NaHCO₃) are:

H₂CO₃ ⇄ <em>HCO₃⁻</em> + H⁺ Ka1 <em>-Here, HCO₃⁻ is acting as a base-</em>

<em>HCO₃⁻</em>⇄ CO₃²⁻ + H⁺ Ka2 <em>-Here, is acting as an acid-</em>

Where Ka1 = 4.3x10⁻⁷ and Ka2 = 4.8x10⁻¹¹. As pKa = -log Ka:

pKa1 = 6.37; pKa2 = 10.32

As the pH of amphoteric salts is:

pH = (pKa1 + pKa2) / 2

<h2>pH = 8.34</h2>
