A solution of baking soda and water has a pH of 8.40. What type of solution is this?

Chemistry

The solution is basic.
pH scale can be used to find out how acidic or basic a solution is .
When pH = 7 the solution is neutral,
pH < 7 solution is acidic
pH > 7 solution is neutral
Since the pH of solution is 8.40 then value is more than 7 therefore baking Soda and water is basic.

Since 1mL=1cm^3 the wood would sink due to it being more dense. I.e. 0.95>0.88

Complete and balance the following redox reaction in basic solution
inn [45]

Answer:

balanced in ACID not BASE

Cr2O7^2-(aq) +3Hg(l) +14 H^1+ ----> 3Hg^2+ + 2Cr^3+(aq) + 7H2O

Answer

Cr2O7^2-(aq) +3Hg(l) +14 H^1+ ----> 3Hg^2+ + 2Cr^3+(aq) + 7H2O

Explanation:

Cr2O7^2-(aq) + Hg(l) ----> Hg^2+(aqH) + Cr^3+(aq)

add H^1+ (acid) to capture the O and make 7 water molecules

Cr2O7^2-(aq) + Hg(l) + H^1+ ----> Hg^2+(aqH) + Cr^3+(aq) + 7H2O

Cr goes from +6 to +3 by gaining 3 e

Hg goes from 0 to +2 by losing 2 e

we need 3 Hg for every 2 Cr

so

Cr2O7^2-(aq) +3Hg(l) +14 H^1+ ----> 3Hg^2+ + 2Cr^3+(aq) + 7H2O

2 Cr on the right and left

Net 12 positive charges on the right and the left

3 Hg on the right and left

14 H on the right and left

the equation is balanced

we cannot balance the equation in a basic solution with OH^1-

we have plenty of O in the dichromate ion. we need to convert it to water which take free H^1+ from the acid

OverLord2011 [107]
Now I'm just going to assume you mean Charles law. So when working with gases, there are 4 properties: pressure, volume, temp, and quantity. The simple gas laws deal with 2, while leaving the other 2 constant. If Charles' Law changes temp and volume, what 2 stay constant? Pressure and quantity

How can you distinguish between a solution, colloid, and suspension?
RSB [31]

Answer:

solution is clear solution while colloidal is between the solution and suspension. And in suspension particles are suspended.

Explanation:

In solution light can be passed without any scattering of light from solute particles while suspension is cloudy and having larger particle size than colloids, if suspension stands for a while particles will settle down easily.

In colloids light  will scattered and dispersed by reflecting with large particles.
