Answer:

A potentiometric pH meter is used to measure the pH of a solution.

Explanation:

A pH meter is an common instrument that is used to measure the hydrogen-ion concentration in aqueous solutions , the meter indicates its acidity or alkalinity and is expressed as pH.

The pH meter measures the difference in electrical potential between a pH electrode and a reference electrode, hence the pH meter is often called a potentiometric pH meter. The difference in electrical potential is related to the pH of the solution.

Potentiometric pH meters consists of a simple electronic amplifier and a pair of electrodes, alternatively it may consist of a combination electrode, and some form of display calibrated in pH units. It usually has a glass electrode and a reference electrode, or a combination electrode. The electrodes, or probes, are inserted into the solution to be tested and pH values are read off.

How does increasing and decreasing the temperature affect the kinetic energy of molecules? How does this impact heat
coldgirl [10]

Answer: As the temperature of a molecular system increases, the kinetic energy of molecules also increase. Also as the temperature of a molecular system decreases, the kinetic energy of the molecules will also decrease.

Explanation:

James Clerk Maxwell developed the kinetic-molecular theory (KMT) of gases. In this theoey, five assumptions concerning an ideal gas was made. One of the them was that," the average kinetic energy of the gas molecules is proportional to the temperature of the gas". This simply means that a s the temperature of a molecular system increases, the kinetic energy of molecules also increase. Also as the temperature of a molecular system decreases, the kinetic energy of the molecules will also decrease.

Also another scientist known as Rudolf Clausius incorporated energy into the kinetic theory. He proposed that heat is a form of energy that affects the temperature of matter by changing the motion of molecules in matter.

Heat is defined as the flow of energy which is caused by difference in temperature.

In conclusion, when the temperature of a system is increased, the collision of the molecules with one another and the walls of their container increases as more molecules gain more heat energy at higher temperature. While as the temperature of the system decreases, the collision of the molecules will also decrease as molecules lose heat energy at lower temperature.
