How do hydroxyl ions and hydronium ions affect pH?

Hydroxyl ions are OH⁻ while hydronium ions are H₃O⁺ which is essentially H⁺ ions. The formula for pH is: pH = -log[H⁺]. So, the greater the concentration of H⁺ is, the lower the pH which indicates acidity. On the other hand, the greater the concentration of OH⁻, the greater the pH which indicates basicity. This is also a consequence of the equation: pH + pOH = 14.

Answer:

a= In scientific notation

6.96000×10⁵ Km

b =In expanded notation

0.00019 mm

Explanation:

Given data:

Radius of sun = 696000 Km

size of bacterial cell = 1.9 ×10⁻⁴ mm

Radius of sun in scientific notation = ?

Size of bacterial cell in expanded notation = ?

Solution:

Scientific notation is the way to express the large value in short form.

The number in scientific notation have two parts.

. The digits (decimal point will place after first digit)

× 10 ( the power which put the decimal point where it should be)

for example the number 6324.4 in scientific notation will be written as = 6.3244 × 10³

Radius of sun:

696000 Km

In scientific notation

6.96000 × 10⁵ Km

The expanded notation is standard notation of writing the numerical values which is normal way. The numbers are written as they are, without the power of 10.

Size of bacterial cell:

1.9 ×10⁻⁴ mm

In expanded notation

1.9/ 10000 = 0.00019 mm

Suppose a group of volunteers is planning to build a park near a local lake. The lake is known to contain low levels of arsenic

Kisachek [45]

Answer:

A) 10.75 is the concentration of arsenic in the sample in parts per billion .

B) 7,633.66 kg the total mass of arsenic in the lake that the company have to remove.

C) It will take 1.37 years to remove all of the arsenic from the lake.

Explanation:

A) Mass of arsenic in lake water sample = 164.5 ng

The ppb is the amount of solute (in micrograms) present in kilogram of a solvent. It is also known as parts-per million.

To calculate the ppm of oxygen in sea water, we use the equation:

$\text{ppb}=\frac{\text{Mass of solute}}{\text{Mass of solution}}\times 10^9$

Both the masses are in grams.

We are given:

Mass of arsenic = 164.5 ng = $164.5\times 10^{-9} g$

$1 ng=10^{-9} g$

Volume of the sample = V = $15.3 cm^3$

Density of the lake water sample ,d= $1.00 g/cm^3$

Mass of sample = M = $d\times V=1.0 g/cm^3\times 15.3 cm^3=15.3 g$

$ppb=\frac{164.5\times 10^{-9} g}{15.3 g}\times 10^9=10.75$

10.75 is the concentration of arsenic in the sample in parts per billion.

Mass of arsenic in $1 cm^3$ of lake water = $\frac{164.5\times 10^{-9} g}{15.3}=1.075\times 10^{-8} g$

Mass of arsenic in $0.710 km^3$ lake water be m.

$1 km^3=10^{15} cm^3$

Mass of arsenic in $0.710\times 10^{15} cm^3$ lake water :

$m=0.710\times 10^{15}\times 1.075\times 10^{-8} g=7,633,660.130 g$

1 g = 0.001 kg

7,633,660.130 g = 7,633,660.130 × 0.001 kg=7,633.660130 kg ≈ 7,633.66 kg

7,633.66 kg the total mass of arsenic in the lake that the company have to remove.

Company claims that it takes 2.74 days to remove 41.90 kilogram of arsenic from lake water.

Days required to remove 1 kilogram of arsenic from the lake water :

$\frac{2.74}{41.90} days$

Then days required to remove 7,633.66 kg of arsenic from the lake water :

$=7,633.66\times \frac{2.74}{41.90} days=499.19 days$

1 year = 365 days

499.19 days = $\frac{499.19}{365} years = 1.367 years\approx 1.37 years$

It will take 1.37 years to remove all of the arsenic from the lake.

How many moles of gas occupy 98L at a pressure of 2.8atm and a temperature of 292k? and what law would you use?

algol13

Let's assume that the gas has ideal gas behavior.

Then we can use ideal gas equation,
PV = nRT

Where, P is Pressure of the gas (Pa), V is volume of the gas (m³), n is the number of moles of gas (mol), R is the Universal gas constant (8.314 J mol⁻¹ K⁻¹) and T is the temperature in Kelvin (K)

The given data for the gas is,
P = 2.8 atm = 283710 Pa
V = 98 L = 98 x 10⁻³ m³
T = 292 K
R = 8.314 J mol⁻¹ K⁻¹
n = ?

By applying the formula,
283710 Pa x 98 x 10⁻³ m³ = n x 8.314 J mol⁻¹ K⁻¹ x 292 K
n = 11.45 mol

Hence,moles of gas is 11.45 mol.
