Hello! Here is what I have found

The force of gravity determines how long an object will take to fall to the ground. ... However, when the experiment was done on the Moon, the feather and the hammer both hit the ground at the same time because, in the absence of air resistance, all objects do in fact accelerate towards the ground at the same rate.

The enthalpy of a pure liquid at 75oC is 100 J/mol. The enthalpy of the pure vapor of that substance at 75oC is 1000 J/mol. What

pentagon [3]

Answer:

900 J/mol

Explanation:

Data provided:

Enthalpy of the pure liquid at 75° C = 100 J/mol

Enthalpy of the pure vapor at 75° C = 1000 J/mol

Now,

the heat of vaporization is the the change in enthalpy from the liquid state to the vapor stage.

Thus, mathematically,

The heat of vaporization at 75° C

= Enthalpy of the pure vapor at 75° C - Enthalpy of the pure liquid at 75° C

on substituting the values, we get

The heat of vaporization at 75° C = 1000 J/mol - 100 J/mol

The heat of vaporization at 75° C = 900 J/mol

The majority of water molecules moving across plasma membranes by osmosis do so via a process that is most similar to ____.

ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

The answer is Facilitated Diffusion

Explanation:

Osmosis is most similar to facilitated diffusion.

Osmosis can be defined as : Osmosis is the movement of water molecules across a semi-permeable membrane, down a concentration gradient from a low concentrated solution into a more concentrated solution.

Facilitated diffusion is defined as: Facilitated diffusion is the flow of molecules requiring the aid of a protein, across a membrane, down a concentration gradient from a low concentrated solution into a more concentrated one.

How is chemical and physical properties of matter like in different

Tasya [4]

Chemical properties is when a material undergoes a chemical change or reaction like a nail rusting and a physical change can be observed without changing the material like temperature, color, texture, odor,etc.

Which solution below has the highest concentration of hydroxide ions?a. pH= 3.21b. pH= 7.00c. pH= 7.93d. pH= 12.59e. pH= 9.82

Sloan [31]

Answer:

<em>The solution that has the highest concentration of hydroxide ions is </em><u>d. pH = 12.59.</u>

Explanation:

You can solve this question using just some chemical facts:

pH is a measure of acidity or alkalinity: the higher the pH the lower the acidity and the higher the alkalinity.
The higher the concentration of hydroxide ions the lower the acidity or the higher the alkalinity of the solution, this is the higher the pH.

Hence, since you are asked to state the solution with the highest concentration of hydroxide ions, you just pick the highest pH. This is the option d, pH = 12.59.

These mathematical relations are used to find the exact concentrations of hydroxide ions:

pH + pOH = 14 ⇒ pOH = 14 - pH

pOH = - log [OH⁻] ⇒ $[OH^-]=10^{-pOH}$

Then, you can follow these calculations:

Solution pH pOH [OH⁻]

a. 3.21 14 - 3.21 = 10.79 antilogarithm of 10.79 = 1.6 × 10⁻¹¹

b. 7.00 14 - 7.00 = 7.00 antilogarithm of 7.00 = 10⁻⁷

c. 7.93 14 - 7.93 = 6.07 antilogarithm of 6.07 = 8.5 × 10⁻⁷

d. 12.59 14 - 12.59 = 1.41 antilogarithm of 1.41 = 0.039

e. 9.82 14 - 9.82 = 4.18 antilogarithm of 4.18 = 6.6 × 10⁻⁵

From which you see that the highest concentration of hydroxide ions is for pH = 12.59.
