Answer: a) pH = 13.00 : basic
b)
: basic
c) pOH = 5.00 : basic
d)
: acidic
Explanation:
pH or pOH is the measure of acidity or alkalinity of a solution.
pH is calculated by taking negative logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration.
![pH=-\log [H_3O^+]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=pH%3D-%5Clog%20%5BH_3O%5E%2B%5D)
Acids have pH ranging from 1 to 6.9 and bases have pH ranging from 7.1 to 14.Neutral substances have pH of 7.
a) pH = 13.00
As pH is more than 7, the solution is basic.
b) ![[H_3O^+]=1.0\times 10^{-12}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BH_3O%5E%2B%5D%3D1.0%5Ctimes%2010%5E%7B-12%7D)
Putting in the values:
![pH=-\log[1.0\times 10^{-12}]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=pH%3D-%5Clog%5B1.0%5Ctimes%2010%5E%7B-12%7D%5D)

As pH is more than 7, the solution is basic.
c) pOH = 5.00


As pH is more than 7, the solution is basic.
d) ![[OH^-]=1.0\times 10^{-9}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BOH%5E-%5D%3D1.0%5Ctimes%2010%5E%7B-9%7D)
Putting in the values:
![pOH=-\log[1.0\times 10^{-9}]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=pOH%3D-%5Clog%5B1.0%5Ctimes%2010%5E%7B-9%7D%5D)



As pH is less than 7, the solution is acidic.
Answer: The specific heat of the unknown metal is 
Explanation:
The quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of a substance by one degree Celsius is called the specific heat capacity.

Q = Heat absorbed=
Joules
m= mass of substance = 86.8 g
c = specific heat capacity = ?
Initial temperature of the water =
Final temperature of the water =
Change in temperature ,
Putting in the values, we get:


The specific heat of the unknown metal is 
Answer:
A. 1:3
Explanation:
If we look at the ions shown in the image attached to the question, we will notice that we have aluminum (Al^3+), a trivalent ion combining with the iodide ion (I^-).
Aluminum can easily give out its three outermost electrons to three atoms of iodine. If aluminum gives out its three electrons, it achieves the stable octet structure. Iodine atoms have seven electrons in their outermost shell. They only need one more electrons to complete their octet. This one electron can be gotten by the combination of three iodine atoms with one atom of aluminum. One electron each is transferred from the aluminum atom to each iodine atom to form AlI3 with a ratio of 1:3.

Explanation:
The use of Uranium - 234 to generate electricity depends on a fission reaction. The uranium nuclide is bombarded by fast moving neutrons leading to a chain reaction. Control rods and moderators are used to keep the nuclear reaction under control.
As the nuclear reaction proceeds, heat is generated and steam is consequently produced. This steam is used to turn a turbine and electricity is thereby generated.
