Answer:

The soil has a percentage of water by mass of 27.8 %.

Explanation:

Keeping in mind that

  • Mass of Clay = Mass of water + Mass of Dry Soil

we can <u>calculate the mass of water</u>:

  • 1350 g = Mass of Water + 975 g
  • Mass of Water = 375 g

We can then <u>calculate the mass percentage of water in the soil</u>:

  • 375 / 1350 * 100% = 27.8 %

The substance argon has the following properties: normal melting point: 83.9 K normal boiling point: 87.4 K triple point: 0.68 a
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

The final state of the substance is a gas.

The sample is initially a liquid. One or more phase changes will occur.

Explanation:

Let's consider the phase diagram for Argon (not to scale).

<em>A sample of argon is initially at a pressure of 49.6 atm and a temperature of 101.4 K. The pressure on the sample is reduced to 0.680 atm at a constant temperature of 101.4 K. Which of the following are true? Choose all that apply </em>

<em>The final state of the substance is a gas.</em> TRUE. At 0.680 atm and 101.4 K, the substance is a gas.

<em>The gas initially present will solidify.</em> FALSE. Initially, Ar is present as a liquid.

<em>The final state of the substance is a solid.</em> FALSE.

<em>The sample is initially a liquid. One or more phase changes will occur.</em> TRUE. The sample is initially liquid and only one phase change will occur.

What is the pH of a 0.08 M solution of Ca(OH),?
torisob [31]

Answer:

pH = 12.20

Explanation:

Ca(OH)2 is a strong base, so it dissociates completely. A 0.08 M solution of Ca(OH)2 is 0.16 M OH-, since every mole of Ca(OH)2 has 2 OH-.

Calculate pOH using [OH-] = 0.16 M

pOH = -log(0.16) = 0.80

pH = 14 - pOH = 14 - 0.80 = 12.20
