erastovalidia [21]
In this item, it is assumed that we are to express the given compound in their ionic form. To be able to determine as to what ions this compound will dissociate into, we have the chemical reaction.

                     HNO3 --> H⁺  + NO₃⁻

Hence, the ions are H⁺, NO₃⁻.

aliya0001 [1]

The air pressure inside the can is lower compared to that of outside air pressure.

Explanation:

  • In general, the air pressure of an already opened can will be the same as the outside pressure.
  • Since the can is evacuated and remain as vacuum, so there will be no pressure difference in it.
  • If the can opens, air inside the can push the top and escapes to the outside.
  • This is due to high pressure experienced outside the can compare to that of lower pressure inside the can and this may even cause can to collapse itself.

scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

five half lives

Explanation:

Half-life is the time required for a quantity to reduce to half of its initial value.

How many half lives it would take to reach 3.13% form 100% of it's initial concentration:

100% - 50% : First Half life

50% - 25%: Second Half life

25% - 12.5%: Third Half life

12.5% - 6.25%: Fourth Half life

6.25% - 3.125%: Fifth Half life

This means it would take five half lives to get to 3.125% (≈ 3.13%) of it's original concentration.
