Answer:

(a) pH=4.0

(b) pH=8.3

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, since the pH is understood as the potential of the hydrogen in an aqueous solution, and we can calculate it is as follows:

$pH=-log([H^+])$

We simply need to plug in the concentrations on each question as shown below:

(a)

$pH=-log(1x10^{-4})\\\\pH=4$

(b)

$pH=-log(5x10^{-9})\\\\pH=8.3$

Regards!

If a black ball is denser than a white ball of the same size, what does the black ball have??

yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer: The black ball will have more mass than the white ball.

Explanation: Density of a substance is defined as the ratio of mass and volume occupied by the substance.

Mathematically,

$Density=\frac{Mass}{Volume}$

We are given that the two balls are of same size, which means that the volume of both the balls are same. We are also given that the black ball is more dense than the white ball, which means that the black ball will have more mass.

As, $Density\propto Mass$

Which human activity will most likely contribute to ozone layer destruction?

vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer: The compounds containing CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons) are mainly responsible for ozone layer depletion as these compounds react with ozone in the presence of ultraviolet rays to form oxygen molecule and thus, destroying ozone.

Explanation: Human activities cause the emission of halogen source gases that contain chlorine and bromine atoms. These emissions into the atmosphere ultimately lead to stratospheric ozone depletion. The source gases that contain only carbon, chlorine, and fluorine are called chlo- rofluorocarbons usually abbreviated as CFCs.

A gas with a volume of 250 mL at a temperature of 293K is heated to 324K. What is the new volume of the gas?

Natalija [7]

Answer:

The new volume of the gas is 276.45 mL.

Explanation:

Charles's law indicates that for a given sum of gas at constant pressure, as the temperature increases, the volume of the gas increases, and as the temperature decreases, the volume of the gas decreases.

Charles's law is a law that mathematically says that when the amount of gas and pressure are kept constant, the quotient that exists between the volume and the temperature will always have the same value:

$\frac{V}{T} =k$

Analyzing an initial state 1 and a final state 2, it is satisfied:

$\frac{V1}{T1} =\frac{V2}{T2}$

In this case:

V1= 250 mL
T1= 293 K
V2= ?
T2= 324 K

Replacing:

$\frac{250 mL}{293 K} =\frac{V2}{324 K}$

Solving:

$V2=324 K*\frac{250 mL}{293 K}$

V2= 276.45 mL

The new volume of the gas is 276.45 mL.
