Answer:

Hydrogen ions are spontaneously generated in pure water by the dissociation (ionization) of a small percentage of water molecules into equal numbers of hydrogen (H+) ions and hydroxide (OH–) ions. The hydroxide ions remain in solution because of their hydrogen bonds with other water molecules; the hydrogen ions, consisting of naked protons, are immediately attracted to un-ionized water molecules and form hydronium ions (H30+). By convention, scientists refer to hydrogen ions and their concentration as if they were free in this state in liquid water.

The concentration of hydrogen ions dissociating from pure water is 1 × 10-7 moles H+ ions per liter of water. The pH is calculated as the negative of the base 10 logarithm of this concentration:

The negative log of 1 × 10-7 is equal to 7.0, which is also known as neutral pH. Human cells and blood each maintain near-neutral pH.

pH Scale

The pH of a solution indicates its acidity or basicity (alkalinity). The pH scale is an inverse logarithm that ranges from 0 to 14: anything below 7.0 (ranging from 0.0 to 6.9) is acidic, and anything above 7.0 (from 7.1 to 14.0) is basic (or alkaline ). Extremes in pH in either direction from 7.0 are usually considered inhospitable to life. The pH in cells (6.8) and the blood (7.4) are both very close to neutral, whereas the environment in the stomach is highly acidic, with a pH of 1 to 2.

What happens to valence electrons when a covalent bond forms?
abruzzese [7]

Explanation:

Covalent bonding occurs when pairs of electrons are shared by atoms. Atoms will covalently bond with other atoms in order to gain more stability, which is gained by forming a full electron shell. By sharing their outer most (valence) electrons, atoms can fill up their outer electron shell and gain stability

Where does most the candles light come from​
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

It comes from the chemical reaction of The wax and the gas because the wax is made up of carbon-based chemicals so the gas and carbon make the candle light =)

SnO2 + 2 H2 ——> Sn + 2 H2O
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

0.15g

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Number of molecules of water = 1.2 x 10²¹ molecules

Unknown:

Mass of SnO₂  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we have to work from the known to the unknown specie;

             SnO₂   +    2H₂    →   Sn  +   2H₂O

Ensure that the equation given is balanced;

       

Now,

          the known species is water;

                  6.02 x 10²³ molecules of water  = 1 mole

                   1.2 x 10²¹ molecules of water  = \frac{1.2 x 10^{21} }{6.02 x 10^{23} }    = 0.2 x 10⁻²moles

Number of moles of water  = 0.002moles

           From the balanced chemical equation:

         

             2 mole of water is produced from 1 mole of    SnO₂  

           0.002 moles of water will be produced from \frac{0.002}{2}  = 0.001moles

To find the mass;

           Mass  = number of moles x molar mass

Molar mass of  SnO₂ = 118.7 + 2(16) = 150.7g/mol

        Mass  =  0.001 x 150.7 = 0.15g
