Answer:

pOH = 9.

Explanation:

The inverse relationship between the pH and pOH of any given solution can be written as:

pH = 14 - pOH

Or conversely:

pOH = 14 - pH

With the above information in mind we can use the given pH to calculate the pOH:

pOH = 14 - pH

pOH = 14 - 5

pOH = 9

Thus, black coffee has a pOH of 9.

Given the following information, what is the concentration of H2O(g) at equilibrium? [H2S](eq) = 0.671 M [O2](eq) = 0.587 M Kc =

MAVERICK [17]

Answer: The equilibrium concentration of water is 0.597 M

Explanation:

Equilibrium constant in terms of concentration is defined as the ratio of concentration of products to the concentration of reactants each raised to the power their stoichiometric ratios. It is expressed as $K_{c}$

For a general chemical reaction:

$aA+bB\rightleftharpoons cC+dD$

The expression for $K_{eq}$ is written as:

$K_{c}=\frac{[C]^c[D]^d}{[A]^a[B]^b}$

The concentration of pure solids and pure liquids are taken as 1 in the expression.

For the given chemical reaction:

$2H_2S(g)+O_2(g)\rightleftharpoons 2S(s)+2H_2O(g)$

The expression of $K_c$ for above equation is:

$K_c=\frac{[H_2O]^2}{[H_2S]^2\times [O_2]}$

We are given:

$[H_2S]_{eq}=0.671M$

$[O_2]_{eq}=0.587M$

$K_c=1.35$

Putting values in above expression, we get:

$1.35=\frac{[H_2O]^2}{(0.671)^2\times 0.587}$

$[H_2O]=\sqrt{(1.35\times 0.671\times 0.671\times 0.587)}=0.597M$

Hence, the equilibrium concentration of water is 0.597 M

A grapefruit has a weight on earth of 4.9 newtons. what is grapefruit's mass

Kobotan [32]

The force of gravity is the force with which massively large objects such as the earth attracts another object towards itself. All objects of the earth exert a gravity that is directed towards the center of the earth. Therefore, the force of gravity of the earth is equal to the mass of the object times acceleration due to gravity.

F = ma 
4.9N = m (9.8 m/s^2), note that N (newtons) = kg-m/s^2 
m = 0.5 kg
The mass of the object is 0.5kg.
