If an aqueous solution turns litmus red, the pH of the solution could be the range of 1 - 6.

An acid is a substance that is capable of producing only hydrogen ions (H+) when dissolved in water.

An acid posseses other unique characteristics and are as follows:

Acids are corrosive in their concentrated form
Acids turn blue litmus red
Acids are sour to taste

The pH range of an acidic substance is between 1-6.

Therefore, if an aqueous solution turns litmus red, the pH of the solution could be the range of 1 - 6.

Answer:

- the specific gravity of the block is 0.75

- the specific gravity of the solution is 1.5

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

first we find the specific gravity of a block SGB

SGB = ( block vol below / total block vol ) × the specific gravity of water

we substitute

SG $_{BLOCK$ = ( 1.5 / (1.5 + 0.5 ) ) × 1

SG $_{BLOCK$ = (1.5 / 2) × 1

SG $_{BLOCK$ = 0.75

Therefore, the specific gravity of the block is 0.75

specific gravity of solution SG $_{SOLUTION$

SG $_{SOLUTION$ = (total block vol / block below ) × SG $_{BLOCK$

we substitute

SG $_{SOLUTION$ = ( 2 / 1 ) × 0.75

SG $_{SOLUTION$ = 2 × 0.75

SG $_{SOLUTION$ = 1.5

Therefore, the specific gravity of the solution is 1.5

In this problem, Charles' law is applicable since constant pressure with varying volume and temperature are given. Charles' law derived from ideal gas law is expressed as $\frac{ V_{1} }{ T_{1} }= \frac{ V_{2} }{ T_{2} }$ . Subsituting V1=556 cm3, T1=278 K and T2=231 K, V2 or the new volume is 462 cm3.
