If a transverse wave travels 10 meters in 5 seconds what is its speed

matrenka [14]

2 meters per second. You do 10 divided by 5 to find your answer, which is 2.

What is the quantum number set of the ground-state electron that is found in lithium (Li) but not in helium (He)?

statuscvo [17]

The electron configuration of lithium atom is: $Li:[He]2s^1$

The number "2" is the value of the principal quantum number "n". Letter "s" is associated with the value of secondary quantum number "l" and it is equal to zero. The value of "m" (or magnetic quantum number) is zero too. The quantum number set for the highest energy electron will be (2, 0, 0, 1/2).

5. Juan's car gets an average of 24 miles per gallon of gas. How far can Juan go on

shtirl [24]

Claim: Earth's atmospheric CO2 levels were measured over the past 1000 years and correlated with average world temperatures. The data demostrate that Earth's temperature did not change during the period CO2 levels were steady. But the past 100 years show a dramatic rise in CO2 levels, with a corresponding rise in world temperatures. The CO2 rise can be traced back to the start of the industrial revolution, when machines began doing much of the work. These machine burn fossil fuels and the increased CO2 levels have led to a dramatic rise in world temperatures. The data clearly show the importance of reducing fossil fuel useage, as well as other CO2 emitters. A world of incresing temperatures will lead to greater natural disasters, such as storms, flooding, hurricanes, and drought - all of which upset the ecological balance of the planet.

Can someone tell me how to differentiate if a given salt is acidic, basic, or neutral?

satela [25.4K]

$\bold{\huge{\underline{ Solution }}}$

<h3>Basic Characteristic of acids </h3>

Acids are sour in taste
Acid turns blue litmus paper or solution into red litmus paper or solution
Acids are good conductor of electricity because it dissociate into cation in aqueous solution
Acids classified into edible acids and non edible acids. Non edible acids are very hazardous
Generally, All acids are soluble in water
Acids have PH smaller than 7

Arrhenius definition of acids :-

According to Arrehinus,

Acids are those substances which when dissolve in water given H positive ions . Then, this hydrogen ions combine with water to form H30 + ions

Second definition of Acids was given by Bonsted Lowry :-

According to Bonsted Lowry

Acids are the proton donors that is when acids dissociate into water gives hydrogen ions that is H+ ions

3rd definition was given by Lewis 

According to Lewis

Acids are those substances which have the ability to accept a pair of electrons .

Example of Acids

HNO3 :- Nitric acid
H2SO4 :- Sulfuric acid
HCl :- Hydrochloric acid

<h3>Basic characterists of bases </h3>

Bases are bitter in taste
Bases turns red litmus paper into blue litmus paper or solution
Bases are also good conductor of electricity because on dissociation it produces anion in aqueous solution
Bases are also good conductor of electricity
When bases are soluble in water then they are known as alkaline base
Bases have PH greater than 7

Arrehinus definition of bases :-

According to Arrehinus ,

Bases are those substances which when dissolve in water produce OH negative ions that is hydroxide ions

Bonsted Lowry definition 

According to Bonsted Lowry

Bases are the proton donors as they produce OH negative ions in dissociation in aqueous solution

Lewis definition 

According to Lewis

Acids are those substances which have the ability to lose electrons that is they are electron donors.

Example of bases

Ca(OH)2 :- Calcium hydroxide
NaOH :- Sodium hydroxide
KOH :- Potassium hydroxide

[ Note :- There are so many Lewis acids and bases but they are not Arrhenius or Lowry acids or bases ]

<h3>Basic characteristic of salt </h3>

Salts are the ionic compounds which are composed of acids and bases that cation and anion
Salts are generally found in oceans and seas in the forms of crystals
As they are composed of acids and bases so they are neutral in nature but the salt of strong acid or weak base is acidic in nature or vice versa
Salts are also good conductor of electricity as they form ionic bond
Generally, All salts are soluble in water.
The PH of common Salt is 7

Example of salts

NH4Cl :- Ammonium chloride
CuSO4 :- Copper sulphate
NaCl :- Sodium chloride

Cu2 -> Cu2+ is it getting oxidized?

KIM [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Cu²⁺ + 2e⁻ → Cu ( copper gets reduced )

Cu → Cu²⁺ + 2e⁻ ( copper gets oxidized )

Oxidation:

Oxidation involve the removal of electrons and oxidation state of atom of an element is increased.

Reduction:

Reduction involve the gain of electron and oxidation number is decreased.

Consider the following reactions.

4KI + 2CuCl₂ → 2CuI + I₂ + 4KCl

the oxidation state of copper is changed from +2 to +1 so copper get reduced.

CO + H₂O → CO₂ + H₂

the oxidation state of carbon is +2 on reactant side and on product side it becomes +4 so carbon get oxidized.

Na₂CO₃ + H₃PO₄ → Na₂HPO₄ + CO₂ + H₂O

The oxidation state of carbon on reactant side is +4. while on product side is also +4 so it neither oxidized nor reduced.

H₂S + 2NaOH → Na₂S + 2H₂O

The oxidation sate of sulfur is -2 on reactant side and in product side it is also -2 so it neither oxidized nor reduced.
