Answer:

B. The air pressure would increase 2X

Explanation:

Pressure = density × acceleration due to gravity × height

p = ρ × g × h

Pressure is force per unit area

p = F/a

Density is mass per unit volume

Pressure is directly proportional to density hence, any change in the density of a body directly affects the change in pressure of the body and vice versa.

When bases dissolve in water they release what type of negative ion?
Leto [7]
A base generally releases a hydroxide ion (OH-) when dissolved in water. 

There are exceptions, such as ammonia NH3, which acts as a base but does not produce OH- ions. There are three definitions of acids and bases (Arrhenius, Bronsted-Lowry, and Lewis) and each one looks at acid/base characteristics differently. OH- donation is the Arrhenius definition.

How many liters of radon gas would be in 3.43 moles at standard temperature and pressure (273 K and 100 kPa)?
MissTica

Answer: Option B. 76.83L

Explanation:

1 mole of a gas occupy 22.4L at stp. This implies that 1mole of Radon also occupy 22.4L at stp.

If 1 mole of Radon = 22.4L

Therefore, 3.43 moles of Radon = 3.43 x 22.4 = 76.83L

What is the pH of 15 mL of .2 M HCl
fenix001 [56]
Easy peasy! All we need to do is plug this formula into our calculator:

-log(M)

So, we'd plug in -log(.2), which is 0.7 :)
