Answer:
The rain falling in New England is 2.29 times more acidic than the one in the American Midwest.
Explanation:
The acidity of a solution depends on the concentration of H⁺ ions ([H⁺]). We can calculate this concentration from the pH using the following expression.
pH = -log ([H⁺])
American Midwest
pH = -log ([H⁺])
5.02 = -log ([H⁺])
[H⁺] = antilog (-5.02) = 9.55 × 10⁻⁶ M
New England
pH = -log ([H⁺])
4.66 = -log ([H⁺])
[H⁺] = antilog (-4.66) = 2.19 × 10⁻⁵ M
The ratio of concentrations is:
The rain falling in New England is 2.29 times more acidic than the one in the American Midwest.

D, carbon dioxide and water. Methane and oxygen PRODUCE carbon dioxide and water in their reaction.
Answer:
the molarity is 3.68 moles/L
Explanation:
the molality of the solution of sucrose is
m= moles of glucose / Kg of solvent (water)= 6.81 ,
since the molecular weight of glucose is 180.156 gr/mole , then per each kilogram of solvent there is
6.81 moles*180.156 gr/mole + 1000 gr of water = 2226.86 gr of solution
from the density
volume of solution = mass of solution/density = 2286.86 gr / 1.2 gr/ml = 1855.71 ml
therefore there is 1000 gr of water in 1855.71 ml
then the molarity M is
M= moles of glucose / L of solution = (moles of glucose / Kg of solvent) * (Kg of solvent/L of solution) = 6.81 moles/Kg * 1Kg/1.85 L = 3.68 moles/L
M= 3.68 moles/L
Note:
- Would be wrong in this case to assume density of water = 1 Kg/L since the solution is heavily concentrated in glucose and therefore the density of water deviates from its pure value.
