Given :

Concentration of hydrogen ions, $H^+ = 10^{-3} \ ions$ .

To Find :

The pH of a solution.

Solution :

We know, pH of a solution is given by :

$pH = - log [ H^+]\\\\pH = -log ( 10^{-3})\\\\pH = 3$

Therefore, the pH of the solution is 3 .

Atoms of arsenic (As) are often added to silicon (Si) in a process called doping to change the conductivity of the silicon. How

Basile [38]

Answer:

B.) An atom of arsenic has one more valence electron and more electron shells than an atom of silicon, so the conductivity decreases because the arsenic atom loses the electron.

Explanation:

Silicon is located in the 3rd row and 14th column in the periodic table. Arsenic is located in the 4th row and 15th column in the periodic table. This means that arsenic has one more valence electron than silicon. Since arsenic is located one row down from silicon, its valence electrons occupy higher energy orbitals.

Silicon maintains a crystal-like lattice structure. Each silicon atom is covalently connected to assume this shape. When silicon gains one extra electron from arsenic, it experiences n-type doping. This new electron is not tightly bound in the lattice structure. This allows it to move more freely and conduct more electricity. This can also be explained using band gaps. Silicon, which previously had an empty conduction band, now has one electron in this band. This lowers the band gap between the conduction and valence bands and increases conductivity.

Convert 565,900 seconds into days

Andreas93 [3]

There are 60 seconds in one minute

565900 / 60 = 9431.667 minutes in 565,900 seconds

There are 60 minutes in an hour

9431.667 minutes / 60 = 157.9144 hours in 565900 seconds

There are 24 hours in 1 day

157.9144 hours / 24 hours = 6.5498 days.
