Answer:

<em>The pH of the solution is </em><u><em>7</em></u>

Explanation:

<em>The pH</em> is a measure of the acidity of the solutions. It is defined as the negative logarithm of the molar concentration of hydrogen ions (H⁺).

pH = - log [H⁺]

<em>The hydrogen ion concentration of this solution is 1 × 10⁻⁷ M.</em>

Hence:

pH = - log (1 × 10⁻⁷) = - (-7) = 7

This pH corresponds to a neutral solution (neither acid nor alkaline).

You should remember this relation bwtween pH and acidity/alkaliinity:

Low pH (0.0 or close) corresponds to strong acids
HIgh pH (14.0 or close) corresponds to strong bases
Acids have pH between 0.0 and 7.0
Bases have pH between 7.0 and 14.0

lilavasa [31]

Answer:

$\frac{[magenta\ phenolphthalein]}{[colorless\ phenolphthalein]}=31.62$

Explanation:

Considering the Henderson- Hasselbalch equation for the calculation of the pH of the buffer solution as:

$pH=pKa+\log\frac{[base]}{[acid]}$

Where Ka is the dissociation constant of the acid.

pKa of phenolphthalein = 9.40

pH = 10.9

So,

$10.9=9.40+\log\frac{[magenta\ phenolphthalein]}{[colorless\ phenolphthalein]}$

$\frac{[magenta\ phenolphthalein]}{[colorless\ phenolphthalein]}=31.62$

Based on the information I would assume B, 73 degrees...

It shouldn't be A, 4 minutes on the burner should increase the temperature.

If it were D, it would be beyond boiling, and water takes a decent amount of energy to heat, D should be all vapor.

Same logic for C, it's basically almost boiling.

I would say 73 degrees seems most reasonable for 4 minutes.

1) How many moles are in 4.0x10^24 atoms?

-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

<h2>6.64 moles</h2>

Explanation:

To find the number of moles in a substance given it's number of entities we use the formula

$n = \frac{N}{L} \\$

where n is the number of moles

N is the number of entities

L is the Avogadro's constant which is

6.02 × 10²³ entities

From the question we have

$n = \frac{4 \times {10}^{24} }{6.02 \times {10}^{23} } \\ = 6.644518...$

We have the final answer as

<h3>6.64 moles</h3>

Hope this helps you
