Give three examples, from the lab, where potential energy was converted to kinetic energy.

GREYUIT [131]

Give 3 Examples of where potential energy was converted to knlinetic energy:

Curtain

A ball before moving

An apple from the tree then falling down

When the Curtains are still, we call the that potential energy. If you move the curtains around, that is kinetic energy

The ball is still, that is potential energy. Then the ball is moving, the is kinetic energy

There is a apple ganging from a tree, that is potential energy. That apple is fall, this is kinetic energy

Hope this helps

Don't type or write in the answer, I'm not sure what from the lab means. These are a few potential into kinetic energy I could have think of!

When the pH of a solution changes from a pH of 5 to a pH of 3, the hydronium ion concentration is

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer : The correct option is, (D) 100 times the original content.

Explanation :

As we are given the pH of the solution change. Now we have to calculate the ratio of the hydronium ion concentration at pH = 5 and pH = 3

As we know that,

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

The hydronium ion concentration at pH = 5.

$5=-\log [H_3O^+]$

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

The hydronium ion concentration at pH = 3.

$3=-\log [H_3O^+]$

$[H_3O^+]=1\times 10^{-3}M$ ................(2)

By dividing the equation 1 and 2 we get the ratio of the hydronium ion concentration.

$\frac{[H_3O^+]_{original}}{[H_3O^+]_{final}}=\frac{1\times 10^{-5}}{1\times 10^{-3}}=\frac{1}{100}$

$100\times [H_3O^+]_{original}=[H_3O^+]_{final}$

From this we conclude that when the pH of a solution changes from a pH of 5 to a pH of 3, the hydronium ion concentration is 100 times the original content.

Hence, the correct option is, (D) 100 times the original content.
