Which of the following is TRUE? a neutral solution does not contain any H3O+ or OH- a neutral solution contains [H2O] = [H3O+] a
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

Options B and C

Explanation:

Let's take a look at the options and get our answer by way of elimination. The basic definition of a neutral solution is given as;

A neutral solution is a substance which is neither acid nor basic . it has a PH of 7. it will have equal amount of H+ AND OH- ions in it.

a) a neutral solution does not contain any H3O+ or OH- This is wrong because take water as an example, it is neutral but contains both ions.

b) a neutral solution contains [H2O] = [H3O+]. This option is correct cause it is in line with the definition above.

c) an acidic solution has [H3O⁺] > [OH⁻]. Acidic solutions are any solution that has a higher concentration of hydrogen ions than water. This option is correct.

d) a basic solution does not contain any H3O⁺. This option is wrong. Basic solutions are any solution that has a higher concentration of hydroxide ions than water. This means they contain H3O⁺ but  [OH⁻] is greater.

Sucrose, a major product of photosynthesis in green leaves, is synthesized by a battery of enzymes. The substrates for sucrose s
Gwar [14]

Answer:

Sucrose is a disaccharide composed of alpha D gluose and beta D fructose linked together by beta 2,alpha1 glycosidic linkage.

Explanation:

The specificity of glycosidic linkage very much essential to choose the substrate for the synthesis of specific disaccharide.

 For example sucrose contain beta 2,alpha1 glycosidic linkage that means the hydroxyl group of anomeric carbon of one monosaccharide(fructose) should remain in beta conformation and the hydroxyl group of other monosaccharide(glucose) should remain in alpha conformation.

what is a photoelectric?explain the terms ground state and excited state with the help of labelled diagram
brilliants [131]

Answer: Photoelectric is characterized by or involving the emission of electrons from a surface by the action of light.

Photoelectric effect is the emission of electrons when a radiation of frequency higher than the threshold frequency falls on the surface of an element. The substance which undergoes photoelectric effect is called as photoelectric.

Ground state is the state representing the lowest energy  state.

Excited state is the state which represents a high energy state.

An electron in ground state absorbs energy to move to the excited state.

Question 9
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

0.382 atm

Explanation:

In order to find the pressure, you need to know the moles of carbon dioxide (CO₂) gas. This can be found by multiplying the mass (g) by the molar mass (g/mol) of CO₂. It is important to arrange the conversion in a way that allows for the cancellation of units.

Molar Mass (CO₂): 12.011 g/mol + 2(15.998 g/mol)

Molar Mass (CO₂): 44.007 g/mol

15 grams CO₂               1 mole
----------------------  x  ------------------------  =  0.341 moles CO₂
                                44.007 grams

To find the pressure, you need to use the Ideal Gas Law equation.

PV = nRT

In this equation,

-----> P = pressure (atm)

-----> V = volume (L)

-----> n = moles

-----> R = Ideal Gas Constant (0.08206 atm*L/mol*K)

-----> T = temperature (K)

After you convert Celsius to Kelvin, you can plug the given and calculated values into the equation and simplify to find the pressure.

P = ? atm                              R = 0.08206 atm*L/mol*K

V = 20 L                               T = 0 °C + 273.15 = 273.15 K

n = 0.341 moles

PV = nRT

P(20 L) = (0.341 moles)(0.08206 atm*L/mol*K)(273.15 K)

P(20 L) = 7.64016

P = 0.382 atm
