The correct answer is a. This is because the pH of a solution is defined as -log10(concentration of H+ ions). An inverse logarithmic scale such as this means that a solution with a lower concentration of H+ ions will have a higher pH than one with a higher concentration. Therefore we know that the pH of the second sample will be higher than the first.
Since the logarithmic scale has the base 10, a change by 1 on the scale is a consequence of multiplication/division of the H+ concentration by a factor of 10. As the scale is inverse, this means that a decrease of concentration by factor 1000 is equivalent to increasing the pH by (1000/10) = 3.
Answer:
True
Explanation:
Atomic radius can be defined as a measure of the size (distance) of the atom of a chemical element such as hydrogen, oxygen, carbon, nitrogen etc, typically from the nucleus to the valence electrons. The atomic radius of a chemical element decreases across the periodic table, typically from alkali metals (group one elements such as hydrogen, lithium and sodium) to noble gases (group eight elements such as argon, helium and neon). Also, the atomic radius of a chemical element increases down each group of the periodic table, typically from top to bottom (column).
<em>Hence, the atomic radius of phosphorus is smaller than the atomic radius of magnesium. Basically, the atomic radius of phosphorus is 98 pm while the atomic radius of magnesium is 145 pm.</em>
Answer:
To calculate the number of atoms in a sample, divide its weight in grams by the amu atomic mass from the periodic table, then multiply the result by Avogadro's number: 6.02 x 10^23. Set up Equation Express the relationship of the three pieces of information you need to calculate the number of atoms in the sample in the form of an equation.
Answer:
41.45 mL
Explanation:
Applying the general gas equation,
PV/T = P'V'/T'............... Equation 1
Where P = Initial pressure of hydrogen, V = Initial volume of hydrogen, T= Initial Temperature of hydrogen, P' = Final pressure of hydrogen, V' = Final Volume of Hydrogen, T' = Final Temperature.
make V' the subject of the equation
V' = PVT'/TP'................ Equation 2
Given: P = 718 torr = (718×133.322) N/m² = 95725.196 N/m², V = 47.9 mL = 0.0479 dm³, T = 26 °C = (26+273) = 299 K, T' = 273 K, P' = 101000 N/m²
Substitute these values into equation 2
V' = ( 95725.196×0.0479×273)/(299×101000)
V' = 0.04145 dm³
V' = 41.45 mL
