Answer: a) pH = 13.00 : basic
b) ![[H_3O^+]=1.0\times 10^{-12}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BH_3O%5E%2B%5D%3D1.0%5Ctimes%2010%5E%7B-12%7D)
: basic
c) pOH = 5.00 : basic
d) ![[OH^-]=1.0\times 10^{-9}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BOH%5E-%5D%3D1.0%5Ctimes%2010%5E%7B-9%7D)
: acidic
Explanation:
pH or pOH is the measure of acidity or alkalinity of a solution.
pH is calculated by taking negative logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration.
![pH=-\log [H_3O^+]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=pH%3D-%5Clog%20%5BH_3O%5E%2B%5D)
Acids have pH ranging from 1 to 6.9 and bases have pH ranging from 7.1 to 14.Neutral substances have pH of 7.
a) pH = 13.00
As pH is more than 7, the solution is basic.
b)
Putting in the values:
![pH=-\log[1.0\times 10^{-12}]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=pH%3D-%5Clog%5B1.0%5Ctimes%2010%5E%7B-12%7D%5D)
As pH is more than 7, the solution is basic.
c) pOH = 5.00
As pH is more than 7, the solution is basic.
d)
Putting in the values:
![pOH=-\log[1.0\times 10^{-9}]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=pOH%3D-%5Clog%5B1.0%5Ctimes%2010%5E%7B-9%7D%5D)
As pH is less than 7, the solution is acidic.
Explanation:
The speed of seismic waves is affected by the density of the underlying rock.
Seismic waves are elastic waves that transmits elastic energy from one point to the other.
These waves generally produced during an earthquake.
- The higher the density of rock bodies, the faster the wave travels.
- Rocks that are well packed with little to no void have a higher seismic velocity.
- Where density of rock is low, the speed is also low
Answer:The standard reduction potential, Eo , for Pb2+(aq) is greater than that for Mg2+(aq).
Explanation:
Metals are usually arranged in an order of reactivity called activity series. Metals that are high up in the series are good reducing agents with very low (very negative) reduction potentials. Metals with greater (less negative) reduction potentials are found lower in the series. In the image attached, elements were arranged according to their reducing ability. Magnesium is very electro positive hence it is a better reducing agent with a lesser standard reduction potential than lead(refer to the image for numerical values of standard reduction potentials). Hence it displaces lead from solution and the elemental lead deposits on the wire.
atoms are made of 3 types of subatomic particles; electrons, protons and neutrons
atomic number is the number of protons. atomic number is characteristic for the element. In ground state atoms, the number of electrons and protons are the same.
the electronic configuration of Ca in the ground state is
Ca - 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s²
when Ca loses its 2 valence electrons, it becomes positively charged and the electronic configuration becomes
Ca - 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶
number of electrons in Ca²⁺ is 18
the atom in the ground state would have the same number of electrons and protons. Therefore number of protons are 18. then the atomic number of the element is 18
the atom having an atomic number of 18 is Ar.
the answer is 1) Ar
Answer:
0.78 atm
Explanation:
Step 1:
Data obtained from the question. This includes:
Mass of CO2 = 5.6g
Volume (V) = 4L
Temperature (T) =300K
Pressure (P) =?
Step 2:
Determination of the number of mole of CO2.
This is illustrated below:
Mass of CO2 = 5.6g
Molar Mass of CO2 = 12 + (2x16) = 12 + 32 = 44g/mol
Number of mole CO2 =?
Number of mole = Mass/Molar Mass
Number of mole of CO2 = 5.6/44
Number of mole of CO2 = 0.127 mole
Step 3:
Determination of the pressure in the container.
The pressure in the container can be obtained by applying the ideal gas equation as follow:
PV = nRT
The gas constant (R) = 0.082atm.L/Kmol
The number of mole (n) = 0.127 mole
P x 4 = 0.127 x 0.082 x 300
Divide both side by 4
P = (0.127 x 0.082 x 300) /4
P = 0.78 atm
Therefore, the pressure in the container is
