A higher pH is less acidic than a lower pH.

pH = log { 1 / [H3O+] },where [H3O+] is the same that [H+].

Then, you need to decrease the pH of the solution from 7.0 to 5.0, which means you have to make it more acidic which is the same that increase the concentration of H+.

pH = 7.0 = log { 1/ [H3O+] } => [H3O+] = 10^-7M

pH = 5.0 = log { 1 / [H3O+] } => [H3O+]= 10^ - 5M

So, the answer is that to correct the pH, the concentration of hydrogen ionshall be increased from 10 ^ - 7 M to 10 ^ - 5M.

PH= (-log[H+ concentration])  

The tank currently has a pH=7.0.

7.0= -log[H+]
10^-7= [H+] 
[H+]= 0.0000001 moles of H+ per a Liter 

The tank needs a pH of 5.0
10^-5.0= [H+]
[H+]= 0.00001 moles of H+ per a Liter

(0.00001)/(0.0000001)= 100 

Answer: Therefore, the tank needs have an H+ concentration 100 times greater than its current concentration to reach a pH of 5.0.

If your lungs were filled with air containing this level of lead, how many lead atoms would be in your lungs? (Assume a total lu
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

1.505×10^23 atoms of lead

Explanation:

Volume of lead in the lungs = total volume of lungs = 5.60L

1 mole = 22.4L

5.6L of lead = 5.6/22.4 = 0.25 mole

From Avogadro's law

1 mole of lead contains 6.02×10^23 atoms of lead

0.25 mole of lead = 0.25×6.02×10^23 = 1.505×10^23 atoms of lead

Which has not been suggested as a reasonably practical way to store large amounts of hydrogen in relatively small spaces for its
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer: A. Liquefy hydrogen under pressure and store it much as we do with liquefied natural gas today.

Explanation:

Current Hydrogen storage methods fall into one of two technologies;

  1. <em>physical storage</em> where compressed hydrogen gas is stored under pressure or as a liquid; and
  2. <em>chemical storage</em>, where the hydrogen is bonded with another material to form a hydride and released through a chemical reaction.

Physical storage solutions are commonly used technologies but are problematic when looking at using hydrogen to fuel vehicles. Compressed hydrogen gas needs to be stored under high pressure and  requires large and heavy tanks. Also, liquid hydrogen boils at -253°C (-423°F) so it needs to be stored cryogenically with heavy insulation and actually contains less hydrogen compared with the same volume of gasoline.  

Chemical storage methods allow hydrogen to be stored at much lower pressures and offer high storage performance due to the strong binding of hydrogen and the high storage densities. They also occupy relatively smaller spaces than either compressed hydrogen gas or liquified hydrogen. A large number of chemical storage systems are under investigation, which involve hydrolysis reactions, hydrogenation/dehydrogenation reactions, ammonia borane and other boron hydrides, ammonia, and alane etc.

Other practical storage methods being researched that focuses on storing hydrogen as a lightweight, compact energy carrier for mobile applications include;

  • Metal hydrides  e.g. LiH
  • Nanostructured metal hydrides
  • Non-metal hydrides
  • Carbohydrates
  • Synthesized hydrocarbons
  • Aluminum
  • Liquid organic hydrogen carriers (LOHC)
  • Encapsulation , e.t.c.

A scientist claims that the water molecules that you drink today could be millions of years old. Use evidence from the water cyc
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

As water on the surface of lakes, oceans, and rivers warms up, it travels into the sky as very tiny droplets, or vapor. When the water vapor gets colder, it turns back to liquid to help form clouds.

When the liquid gets so heavy it can’t stay in the atmosphere anymore, it falls, or “precipitates,” as rain, snow, sleet, hail, or, my favorite, graupel. Once the precipitation reaches the ground or lands in lakes, oceans, and rivers, the cycle continues.

The reaction pcl3(g)+cl2(g)←−→pcl5(g) has kp=0.0870 at 300 ∘c. a flask is charged with 0.50atmpcl3, 0.50atmcl2, and 0.20atmpcl5
bearhunter [10]
The question only asks regarding the direction of the equilibrium reaction. The general expression of Kp is:

Kp = [PCl₅]/[PCl₃][Cl₂]

The higher the value of K (greater than 1), the more spontaneous the reaction (favors the product side). Otherwise, it favors the reactant side. Since Kp = 0.087 which is less than 1, the direction favors the forward reaction towards the product side.
