A.) The amount of sunlight reflected onto the moon from the sun

Just like the Earth, half of the Moon is lit by the Sun while the other half is in darkness. The phases we see result from the angle the Moon makes with the Sun as viewed from Earth. The lit side does not always face the Earth, as the Moon circles the Earth, the amount of the lit side we see changes.

A concentrated salt solution has a mass of 5.222 g for a 5.000 mL sample.
ad-work [718]

The specific gravity or relative density of a substance is the ratio of its density to the density of a reference material. The relative density of the concentrated salt solution is 1.044.

Mathematically;

Density of the concentrated salt = mass of salt/volume of salt = 5.222 g/5.000 mL = 1.044 g/mL

In the case of specific gravity, the reference material is always water and water has a density of 1 g/mL.

Hence, specific gravity of the concentrated salt solution =

Density of concentrated salt solution/density of equal volume of water

= 1.044 g/mL/1 g/mL

= 1.044

Note that specific gravity is dimensionless.

Which type of acetylcholine receptor is present on postganglionic neurons
Sonja [21]

Answer:

Mescarinic and Nicotinic

Explanation:

Postganglionic fibers can be present in both sympathetic and parasympathetic divisions, their main difference resides in how in the sympathetic division the postganglionic fibers are adrenergic and use norepinephrine (noradrenalin) as a neurotransmitter, in the parasympathetic division, on the other hand, fibers are cholinergic and use acetylcholine as a neurotransmitter, the<em> postganglionic neurons of sweat glands release acetylcholine for the activation of muscarinic receptors, another kind of receptor for acetylcholine are nicotinic receptors </em>that act as transmembrane sodium/potassium channels, while muscarinic receptors need to act through intracellular proteins.

I hope you find this informatiou useful and interesting! Good luck!

What is the concentration of kl solution if 20.68g of solute was added to enough water to form 100ml solution?
rewona [7]

Answer:

1.25 M

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Mass of KI (solute): 20.68 g

Volume of the solution: 100 mL (0.100 L)

Step 2: Calculate the moles of solute

The molar mass of KI is 166.00 g/mol.

20.68 g × 1 mol/166.00 g = 0.1246 mol

Step 3: Calculate the molar concentration of KI

Molarity is equal to the moles of solute divided by the liters of solution.

M = 0.1246 mol/0.100 L= 1.25 M

The PH of a solution of Hcl is 2.find out the amount of acid present in a litre of the solution ​
Scrat [10]

Answer:

The solution is 10^-2 or 0.01M in HCl.

Explanation:

meaning of pH is "power of hydrogen".

what is the molar concentration of a HCl solution with pH=2?

Let say pH=2

[H+]=10^-2M

HCL is a strong acid that dissociates completely:

[H+]=[HCL]

Therefore solution is 10^-2 or 0.01M in HCL.

How the calculation of the [OH-], pH and % ionization for 0.619 M ammonia (NH3) NH3 + H2O (liq) rightwards harpoon over leftward
fomenos

Answer:

[OH⁻] = 3.34x10⁻³M; Percent ionization = 0.54%; pH = 11.52

Explanation:

Kb of the reaction:

NH3 + H2O(l) ⇄ NH4+ + OH-

Is:

Kb = 1.8x10⁻⁵ = [NH₄⁺] [OH⁻] / [NH₃]

<em>As all NH₄⁺ and OH⁻ comes from the same source we can write: </em>

<em>[NH₄⁺] = [OH⁻] = X</em>

<em>And as </em>[NH₃] = 0.619M

1.8x10⁻⁵ = [X] [X] / [0.619M]

1.11x10⁻⁵ = X²

3.34x10⁻³ = X = [NH₄⁺] = [OH⁻]

<h3>[OH⁻] = 3.34x10⁻³M</h3><h3 />

% ionization:

[NH₄⁺] / [NH₃] * 100 = 3.34x10⁻³M / 0.619M * 100 = 0.54%

pH:

As pOH = -log [OH-]

pOH = 2.48

pH = 14 - pOH

<h3>pH = 11.52</h3>
