Answer:

The empirical formula is the simplest form;

Given:

Oxygen O at 94.1% and

H at 5.9%

Assume 100grams.

94% = 0.941 x 100gm. = 94.1 gm x 1mole/16gm. = 5.88 moles of O

5.9% = 0.059 x 100gm. = 5.9gm. X 1moleH/1.002gm. = 5.88 moles of H

There is one mole of O for each mole of H so the empirical formula is O_1H_1

and written as OH.

Explanation:

given \: that \: oxygen \: by \: 94.1\% (.941)\\ hydrogen \: by5.9\%(.059) \\ in \: 100gram \:  \\ oxygen = 100 g\times .941 = 94.1 \times  \frac{1(mol)}{16g}  \\  = 5.88moles \: of \: oxygen \\ in \: hydrogen \:  = .059\times 100 = 5.9 \times  \frac{1mol}{1.002gram} \\   = 5.88mole \: of \: hydrogen \\  \: so \: here \:  \: both \: oxygen \: andhydrogen = 5.88 \\their \: ratio = 1 \: 1  \\ so \: emparical \: formula = oh \\ thank \: you

Luke and Sian want to plant a vegetable garden in their yard. A soil testing kit measures the soil pH at 5.0, but the lettuce th
dexar [7]

Answer:

So, Luke and Sian has to increase the pH of the soil by adding base to it.

Explanation:

The pH is defined as the negative logarithm of the hydrogen ion concentration in their aqueous solution.

pH=-\log[H^+]

  • With increase in hydrogen ion concentration the pH value decreases.
  • With decrease in hydrogen ion concentration the pH value increases.

The pH of the soil after testing it on a kit comes out be 5.0, but they both need pH of the soil to 6.5.

Comparison of pH of soil:

  =  5.0 < 6.5

= High hydrogen ion concentration > High hydrogen ion concentration

So, Luke and Sian has to increase the pH of the soil by adding base .Doing so will decrease the hydrogen ion concentration in the soil (where as addition of acid lower the pH of soil).

If a mixture looks smooth and the same throughout it is probably what
gulaghasi [49]
Answer:
             <span>If a mixture looks smooth and the same throughout it is probably <u>Homogeneous</u>.

Explanation:
                   Mixture is the combination of different compounds which are unreactive to each other.

Mixture are classified as ...

Solutions; in which the mixed compounds are thoroughly mixed and cannot be distinguished from each other and are said to be homogeneous. In solutions the size of solute is very small (i.e. Less than 1 nm).

Colloids; in which the solute is homogeneous visually but heterogeneous microscopically. The size of particles in this case is between 1 nm to 1 </span>μm.

Suspensions; in which the mixture is heterogeneous, the particle size is greater than 1 μm and settles down (precipitation) under the influence of gravity.

How can you tell where there is a steep slope on a contour map?
Katena32 [7]

<u>Answer:</u>

Steep slopes on the contour map are identified using contour lines which are closely spaced.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Contour map also known as topographic maps are used to represent the three-dimensional portion of the earth’s surface in two-dimensional space. This map is used to represent the surface of the land such as steep, slopes, valleys. The contour maps are used in geological studies to understand the configuration of the earth's surface. Terms like map scale, vertical scale, contour lines are used on the contour map. Elevations are represented using contour lines. Contour lines placed very close to each represent the steep slopes and contour lines that are spaced farther away from each other represent the gentle slopes.
