H2SO4 + 2RbOH -> Rb2SO4 + 2H2O

If you want an explanation, keep reading.

In the first portion, there are two hydrogen ions and four sulfate ions.

The second portion has one rubidium ions and one hydroxide ion.

On the other side of the equation, in order to keep those two rubidiums balanced, you'll need to add a two at the beginning of the second portion, but in that process you are giving a second hydroxide value.

Back to the right side, there is there is water (H2O).

On the first portion, there were two hydrogen ions. The second portion also has two hydroxides because of the value change (adding the two to the front).

So on the fourth portion, you'd have to add another two so you could balance the four hydrogen ions (H2 and 2OH) and the two oxygen ions (2OH).

I hope this was easy to understand.

An aqueous solution of potassium sulfate (K2SO4) has a freezing point of -2.24

iragen [17]

An aqueous solution of potassium sulfate exhibits colligative properties. Colligative properties are properties that depends on the concentration of a substance in a solution. These properties are freezing point depression, vapor pressure lowering, osmotic pressure and boiling point elevation. For this problem we use the concept of freezing point depression since we are given the freezing point of the solution. Freezing point depression is as:

ΔT = -k(f) x m x i
-2.24 - 0 = -1.86 x m x 3
m = 0.4014

Thus, the molality of the solution is 0.4014.

5. Before vehicle emissions were well-regulated CO emissions were 66 g/mile. Assume this emission rate applies for an airshed. T

Aleks [24]

Answer:CALINE4 Model and Geographical Information System were used for

the present study to predict the CO concentrations and prepare thematic

maps for the study area.

CALINE4 is a latest model that predicts the concentration of carbon

monoxide impacts near the roadways. The California Department of

Transformation (CALTRANS) developed the model and its purpose is to help

planners protect public health from the adverse effects of carbon monoxide.

The model predictions along with the aid of GIS based model help to arrive at

air shed levels of carbon monoxide. CALINE4 is a simple line source

Gaussian plume dispersion model. The user defines the proposed roadway

geometry, worst-case meteorological parameters, anticipated traffic volumes

and receptor positions to predict the concentrations of pollutant.

CALINE4 is graphical with windows based user interface, designed to

ease data entry and increase the online help capabilities. The model was

developed for predicting the concentrations of relatively inert pollutants such

as carbon monoxide and it is now used for several other pollutants like NO2

and SPM. The model is based on fine tuned Gaussian diffusion equation and

it employs mixing zone concept to characterize the pollutant dispersion over

the roadways. Given the exhaust emission concentrations, meteorology and

site geometry, the model can predict the concentration of pollutants for any experimentation

When an atom is in the ground state what must happen for the atom to be in an excited state? what must happen for this atom to r

scoray [572]

Hi there

In order for an electron to jump into a higher energy state, it must first absorb energy (heat, light, etc).

When an electron goes back down to the ground state from the excited state, it emits energy usually in the form of a photon.

i hope this helps
