265.2 mmHg is the partial pressure of oxygen in 780 mmHg of total pressure.

Explanation:

The partial pressure of a gas is defined as the individual pressure of the gas in total mixture. In an ideal gas all the constituent gases have partial pressure some of which will give total pressure of the gas.

The partial pressure of a gas is calculated by

total pressure x mole fraction of the gas.

Mole fraction of the oxygen present is 0.34 as it is 34% of the total gas.

\frac{34}{100} = 0.34  is the mole fraction

Total pressure is given as 780 mm Hg

The partial pressure can be calculated using the above formula:

Putting the values in equation:

780 x 0.34

= 265.2 mm Hg is the partial pressure of oxygen.

Activities that shows the nature and goals of anthropology,Sociology and Political Science​
frez [133]

To answer the question effectively, we will talk about the key words in the question.

ANTHROPOLOGY, SOCIOLOGY AND POLITICAL SCIENCE.

ANTHROPOLOGY; This is the study of human kinds in all times and places,it also entails humanistic study which includes our prehistoric origins and contemporary human diversity as well as topics like social change,globalization,human origin and the world history.

The activities that shows the nature and goals of anthropology includes;

- Looking at ones own culture in a more objective way like an outsider.

- Discovering the things that make people more different from one another.

- Producing new theories and knowledge about human home and their behaviors.

- Discovering/finding out what all people have in common.

There are four fields of anthropology; Linguistic anthropology, Biological anthropology, Archeology and cultural anthropology.

SOCIOLOGY; This is the scientific study of human civilization.

It is systemic and studies of groups and societies that people build

and the effect these have on their behavior.

Sociology greatly focuses on various social connections,

structures, organizations, processes and institutions.

The activities that show the goals and nature of sociology includes;

- Broadening our familiarity on facts about sociology.

- Critically studying the nature of humanity.

- Exposing our minds to the diverse perspectives on attaining the truth.

- Obtaining possible theories about the society.

- Understanding and appreciating that all things in the society are interdependent with each other.

Sociology brings together inputs that are composed of frequent forms and manners,they include; view points, consolidated values, attitudes and the norms of social institutions.

The different branches of sociology are; social psychology,social organisation, applied sociology, population studies, sociological theory and research,human ecology,social change.

POLITICAL SCIENCE; This is a discipline in academics that deals with the study of political processes, institutions, governments and behaviors of people.

It studies the complex behaviors of the people in power, various political actors, such as the government administration, opposition ad the subjects which are the masses.

As the ph approaches 0, what happens to the concentration of h3o+ ions?
natta225 [31]

We know that

pH = -log[H+]

the pH value falls in between 0- 7 for acids

As the pH value increases the concentration of [H+] increases.

similarly as the value of pH approaches 0, the concentration of H+ increases

The solution said to become more acidic

Also

[H+] X [OH-] = 10^-14

Thus pH + pOH = 14

hence the concentration of OH- decreases as the pH approaches zero

10. An atom that has 13 protons and 13 electrons is a neutral aluminum (Al) atom. An atom that has 13 protons and 10 electrons i
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

An atom of Al which has 13 protons and 10 electrons is Al cation (Al⁺³)

Explanation:

An atom consist of electron, protons and neutrons. Protons and neutrons are present with in nucleus while the electrons are present out side the nucleus.

All these three subatomic particles construct an atom. A neutral atom have equal number of proton and electron. In other words we can say that negative and positive charges are equal in magnitude and cancel the each other.

For example,

Al atom has 13 protons and 13 electrons. The number of positive and negative charge is equal thus it will be neutral atom.

While the atom of Al which have 13 proton and 10 electron is not neutral. The positive charge is greater than negative by 3. Which means 3 electrons are lose by Al atom and form cation "Al⁺³".

Thus an atom of Al which has 13 protons and 10 electrons is Al cation (Al⁺³)
