Answer:
Explanation:
A gives off a visible gaseous product when the two are mixed.
The others all talk about physical properties like phase changes and densities.
There’s only one measurement the question doesn’t make sense
The ashes released from the volcano could lead to acid rain and ash clouds.
Explanation:
Since HF is a weak acid, the use of an ICE table is required to find the pH. The question gives us the concentration of the HF.
HF+H2O⇌H3O++F−HF+H2O⇌H3O++F−
Initial0.3 M-0 M0 MChange- X-+ X+XEquilibrium0.3 - X-X MX M
Writing the information from the ICE Table in Equation form yields
6.6×10−4=x20.3−x6.6×10−4=x20.3−x
Manipulating the equation to get everything on one side yields
0=x2+6.6×10−4x−1.98×10−40=x2+6.6×10−4x−1.98×10−4
Now this information is plugged into the quadratic formula to give
x=−6.6×10−4±(6.6×10−4)2−4(1)(−1.98×10−4)−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−√2x=−6.6×10−4±(6.6×10−4)2−4(1)(−1.98×10−4)2
The quadratic formula yields that x=0.013745 and x=-0.014405
However we can rule out x=-0.014405 because there cannot be negative concentrations. Therefore to get the pH we plug the concentration of H3O+ into the equation pH=-log(0.013745) and get pH=1.86
