tia_tia [17]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

A. Soaps react with ions in hard water to create a precipitate.

B. Soaps are both hydrophobic and hydrophilic.

D. Soaps should be weakly alkaline in solution.

Explanation:

A. Hard water contains <u>magnesium and calcium minerals</u> like calcium and magnesium carbonates, sulfates and bicarbonates. As soon as these minerals come in contact with soap their ions like Mg²⁺ & Ca²⁺ form precipitates.

B. Soap are both hydrophilic and hydrophobic. They reason why they exhibit both the properties is really important for their functionality. The hydrophobic part of soap makes interaction with oil/dust particles while the hydrophilic part makes interaction with water. When the cloth is rinsed the dirt/soap particles are removed from the dirty clothes thereby making them clean.

C. Soaps have alkaline pH i.e. more than 7 that is why they have bitter taste.

What is the pH of a 5.09 x 10-5 M solution of NaOH?
Varvara68 [4.7K]

<u>Answer:</u> The pH of the solution is 9.71

<u>Explanation:</u>

1 mole of NaOH produces 1 mole of sodium ions and 1 mole of hydroxide ions.

We are given:

pOH of the solution = 7.2

To calculate the pH of the solution, we need to determine pOH of the solution. To calculate pOh of the solution, we use the equation:

pOH=-\log[OH^-]

We are given:

[OH^-]=5.09\times 10^{-5}M

Putting values in above equation, we get:

pOH=-\log(5.09\times 10^{-5})\\\\pOH=4.29

To calculate pH of the solution, we use the equation:

pH+pOH=14\\pH=14-4.29=9.71

Hence, the pH of the solution is 9.71

An unknown volume of gas has a pressure of 0.50 atm and temperature of 325 K. If the pressure is raised to 1.2 atm and the tempe
Grace [21]
You can solve this by using the equation (P1V1/T1) = (P2V2/T2). Plug in 0.50 atm for P1, leave V1 as the unknown, and plug in 325 K as T1. Then substitute 1.2 atm for P2, 48 L for V2, and 320 K for T2. Solve for V1, which is 117L, but since you round using two sig figs, your answer is C, 120 L. Hope this helps!
