We can solve this problem using the long hand solution, wherein we 1 by 1 analyze the different equilibrium reactions or by simply using the Henderson Hasselbach equation. The equation is
pH = -log(pKa) + log (salt/acid)
since the acid and the salt have the same concentration, the log (salt/acid) term is equal to zero.
thus
pH = -log(1.73*10-5)
pH = 4.76
please be careful with the negative sign

Explanation:
<h3>
Answer:</h3>
CuO(s) + H₂(g) → Cu(s) + H₂O(l)
<h3>
Explanation:</h3>
- Assuming the reaction is the reduction of CuO by H₂
- Then the balanced equation for the reaction is;
CuO(s) + H₂(g) → Cu(s) + H₂O(l)
- The equation shows the reducing property of hydrogen gas, such that hydrogen reduces metal oxides such as copper(ii)oxide to the respective metals.
- The law of conservation requires chemical equations to be balanced so as the mass of reactants will be equal to that of products.
- In this case; there is 1 copper atom, 1 oxygen atom and 2 hydrogen atoms on both side of the equation and thus the equation is balanced.
Matematically speaking, maybe because:
The number of substances = number of elements + number of different combinations of those elements
This question is dealing with the half-life of carbon-14 which can be used to determine the age of a substance according to the following equation:
t = [ln(N/No)/(-ln2)] · t1/2
N = # of carbon-14 atoms presently = 250 atoms
No = # of carbon-14 atoms initially = 1000 atoms
t1/2 = half-life = 5730 years for carbon-14
We can now input all of the information into the formula to find the age of the fossil:
t = [ln (250/1000)/-ln2] x 5730 years
t = 11460 years
The fossil should be found to be roughly 11,460 years old.
