The correct answer is a. This is because the pH of a solution is defined as -log10(concentration of H+ ions). An inverse logarithmic scale such as this means that a solution with a lower concentration of H+ ions will have a higher pH than one with a higher concentration. Therefore we know that the pH of the second sample will be higher than the first.
Since the logarithmic scale has the base 10, a change by 1 on the scale is a consequence of multiplication/division of the H+ concentration by a factor of 10. As the scale is inverse, this means that a decrease of concentration by factor 1000 is equivalent to increasing the pH by (1000/10) = 3.
Rutherford used gold for his scattering experiment because gold is the most malleable metal and he wanted the thinnest layer as possible. The goldsheet used was around 1000 atoms thick. Therefore, Rutherford selected a Gold foil in his alpha scatttering experiment.
Answer:
2.1056L or 2105.6mL
Explanation:
We'll begin by calculating the number of mole in 10g of Na2CO3. This can be obtained as follow:
Molar mass of Na2CO3 = (23x2) + 12 + (16x3) = 106g/mol
Mass of Na2CO3 = 10g
Mole of Na2CO3 =.?
Mole = mass /molar mass
Mole of Na2CO3 = 10/106
Mole of Na2CO3 = 0.094 mole
Next, we shall determine the number of mole CO2 produced by the reaction of 0.094 mole of Na2CO3. This is illustrated below:
Na2CO3 + 2HCl —> 2NaCl + H2O + CO2
From the balanced equation above,
1 mole of Na2CO3 reacted to produce 1 mole of CO2.
Therefore, 0.094 mole of Na2CO3 will also react to 0.094 mole of CO2.
Next, we shall determine the volume occupied by 0.094 mole of CO2 at STP. This is illustrated below:
1 mole of a gas occupy 22.4L at STP. This implies that 1 mole CO2 occupies 22.4L at STP.
Now, if 1 mole of CO2 occupy 22.4L at STP, then, 0.094 mole of CO2 will occupy = 0.094 x 22.4 = 2.1056L
Therefore, the volume of CO2 produced is 2.1056L or 2105.6mL
Answer:
The molar mass of the unknown gas is 
Explanation:
Let assume that the gas is O2 gas
O2 gas is to effuse through a porous barrier in time t₁ = 4.98 minutes.
Under the same conditions;
the same number of moles of an unknown gas requires time t₂ = 6.34 minutes to effuse through the same barrier.
From Graham's Law of Diffusion;
Graham's Law of Diffusion states that, at a constant temperature and pressure; the rate of diffusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of its density.
i.e

where K = constant
If we compare the rate o diffusion of two gases;

Since the density of a gas d is proportional to its relative molecular mass M. Then;

Rate is the reciprocal of time ; i.e

Thus; replacing the value of R into the above previous equation;we have:

We can equally say:






4) is correct
This is because water is polar and it will mix with a polar solvent. A good rule for remembering the behavior of non-polar and polar compounds when it comes to being miscible is that "like dissolves like."
