Answer:
9.28
Explanation:
pOH refers to a measure of hydroxide ions concentration. pOH tells about the alkalinity of a solution. If pOH is less than 7 then aqueous solutions are alkaline, acidic if pOH is greater than 7 and neutral if pOH is equal to 7.
Concentration of the hydroxide ions = 1.9 x 10-5 M
pH = 
pOH = 14 - pH
=14 - 4.72 = 9.28
Answer:
weak bonds break and strong bonds form
Explanation:
An exothermic reaction is a chemical reaction in which heat energy is evolved during the reaction process.
Bond formation requires energy while bond breakage releases energy. More energy is needed for the formation of weak bonds as compared to strong bonds.
<em>Hence, when weak bonds break, they release more energy than needed to make a corresponding strong bond leading to the release of the remaining energy as heat.</em>
The maximum number of covalent bonds formed by a single carbon atom is 4
