Mass of water using isotopes? The water found on Earth is almost entirely made up of the ^1H and ^{16}O isotopes for a formula o

f H_2O and a molecular mass of 18.0 amu. What is the largest mass that a water molecule could have using other isotopes?

Answer : 24.032 amu

Explanation : The mass of water using isotopes can be found by replacing the hydrogen element with its isotope called tritium which has mass of 3.016 amu.

Tritium (T) contains one proton and two neutrons in it. When the water is replaced by tritium the mass of the water becomes as;

T_{2}O = {(3.016 x 2) + 18} = 24.032 amu.

whereas in H_{2}O = {(1 x 2) + 18} = 20 amu.

So, the mass of water will be highest when we replace, hydrogen by tritium as the isotope.

What is the pH of a solution of 1 x 10-5 M NaOH? Is the solution acidic or basic?
Anna007 [38]

Answer: to calculate pH use -log[H+] or - log[OH-]..the solution is basic as the “NaOH” is attached to a hydroxide.Since we need to find the pH (per hydrogen) and not the pOH( per hydroxide) we need to find the pOH of the substance first then we subtract that by 14 so we can arrive at the pH of the substance.

Explanation: So -log( 1 x 10^(-5)) = 5 which is the pOH.Now we subtract that by 14 which gives us -9 and now you’d multiply that by -1 bcuz we can’t have a negative so the pH of the substance is 9

Where in this image would the Moon need to be in order for there to be a total lunar eclipse?​
sattari [20]

Answer:

A lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes directly behind Earth and into its shadow. This can occur only when the Sun, Earth, and Moon are exactly or very closely aligned (in syzygy), with Earth between the other two. A lunar eclipse can occur only on the night of a full moon.
