Does salt affect how long an ice cube melts?

Mashutka [201]

Answer:

Ice cubes with salt melt faster. When you add salt, it dissolves in the water of the ice cube. The freezing temperature of salt water is 32 degrees Fahrenheit lower than that of fresh water.

Acid & Base Calculations Calculate the hydronium ion concentration for each. Tell whether it is an acid or a base. 1. pH = 5

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Explanation:

pH is the negative logarithm of hydronium ion concentration present in a solution.

If the solution has high hydrogen ion concentration, then the pH will be low and the solution will be acidic. The pH range of acidic solution is 0 to 6.9
If the solution has low hydrogen ion concentration, then the pH will be high and the solution will be basic. The pH range of basic solution is 7.1 to 14
The solution having pH equal to 7 is termed as neutral solution.

To calculate the pH of the solution, we use equation:

$pH=-\log[H_3O^+]$ ......(1)

To calculate the pOH of the solution, we use the equation:

pH + pOH = 14 ........(2)

For 1:

We are given:

pH = 5.54

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$5.54=-\log[H_3O^+]$

$[H_3O^+]=2.88\times 10^{-6}M$

Now, putting values in equation 2, we get:

14 = 5.54 + pOH

pOH = 8.46

The solution is acidic in nature.

For 2:

We are given:

pOH = 9.7

Putting values in equation 2, we get:

14 = 9.7 + pH

pH = 4.3

Now, putting values in equation 1, we get:

$4.3=-\log[H_3O^+]$

$[H_3O^+]=5.012\times 10^{-5}M$

The solution is acidic in nature.

For 3:

We are given:

pH = 7.0

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$7.0=-\log[H_3O^+]$

$[H_3O^+]=1.00\times 10^{-7}M$

Now, putting values in equation 2, we get:

14 = 7.0 + pOH

pOH = 7.0

The solution is neither acidic nor basic in nature.

For 4:

We are given:

pH = 12.9

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$12.9=-\log[H_3O^+]$

$[H_3O^+]=1.26\times 10^{-13}M$

Now, putting values in equation 2, we get:

14 = 12.9 + pOH

pOH = 1.1

The solution is basic in nature.

For 5:

We are given:

pOH = 1.2

Putting values in equation 2, we get:

14 = 1.2 + pH

pH = 12.8

Now, putting values in equation 1, we get:

$12.8=-\log[H_3O^+]$

$[H_3O^+]=1.58\times 10^{-13}M$

The solution is basic in nature.

For 6:

We are given:

$[H_3O^+]=1\times 10^{-5}M$

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$pH=-\log(1\times 10^{-5})$

$pH=5$

Now, putting values in equation 2, we get:

14 = 5 + pOH

pOH = 9

The solution is acidic in nature.

Xenon forms several compounds with oxygen and fluorine. It is the most reactive non-radioactive noble gas because a. its large r

muminat

Answer:

d. its effective nuclear charge is lower than the other noble gases.

Explanation:

Xenon belongs to group O on the periodic table. Most of the elements here are unreactive.

Due to the large size of Xenon, the outermost electrons have very low effective nuclear charge. Effective nuclear charge is the effect of the positive charges of the nucleus on the electrons in orbits. This effect decreases outward as atomic shell increases.

Xenon has a very large atomic radius and there is weak a nuclear charge on the outermost electrons. The more electronegative elements would be able to attract some of its outermost electrons easily and form chemical bonds with xenon much more readily.
