How is the strength of an acid affected by the number of hydrogen ions it contains​

Chemistry
1 answer:
adell [148]3 years ago
8 0

More the no. of hydrogen ions more is the solution acidic.

pH means the power of hydrogen that determines the concentration of hydrogen ions or the level of acidiy or basicity of a solution.

so more the hydrogen ions more will be the Power of Hydrogen (pH) and thus more wil be the acidity.

Why is nucleus of an atom charged is negatively charged?
Damm [24]

Answer:

Charge is caused by a flow of electrons, since electrons are around the nucleus they can be lost or gained by atoms. When an atom gets charged, it gains a charge, that is, it gains an electron. Since electrons are negatively charged, when an atom gains one, it also becomes negatively charged.

A weather system moving through the American Midwest produced rain with an average pH of 5.02. By the time the system reached Ne
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

The rain falling in New England is 2.29 times more acidic than the one in the American Midwest.

Explanation:

The acidity of a solution depends on the concentration of H⁺ ions ([H⁺]). We can calculate this concentration from the pH using the following expression.

pH = -log ([H⁺])

American Midwest

pH = -log ([H⁺])

5.02 = -log ([H⁺])

[H⁺] = antilog (-5.02) = 9.55 × 10⁻⁶ M

New England

pH = -log ([H⁺])

4.66 = -log ([H⁺])

[H⁺] = antilog (-4.66) = 2.19 × 10⁻⁵ M

The ratio of concentrations is:

\frac{2.19 \times 10^{-5} M  }{9.55 \times 10^{-6} M} =2.29

The rain falling in New England is 2.29 times more acidic than the one in the American Midwest.

what is a major drawback of using fossil fuels they warmn the planet they contain no greenohuse gases
Charra [1.4K]

The major drawback of fossil fuels is that they warm the planet i.e. they cause global warming.

The reaction typically gives off heat and light as well. The general equation for a complete combustion reaction is:

                                  Fuel + O2 → CO2 + H2O + ENERGY

<h3>Disadvantages of Fossil fuels</h3>

The term "fossil fuels" refers to flammable organic geologic formations, including dead organic matter that has been buried hundreds of feet beneath sediment.

  • Fossil fuel emissions include various oxides, such as carbon, nitrogen, and sulfate, which cause acid rain and harm the soil's fertility and water quality.
  • Both coal and petroleum burning discharge a significant amount of pollutants into the atmosphere, contributing to pollution levels.
  • Gases like carbon dioxide are released through the burning of fossil fuels, which aids in climate change.
