PH is used to measure the acidity of a substance and it can be used to calculate the amount of H+ ions in a solution. pH is expressed as:

pH = -log [H+]
For a normal rain:
5.5 = -log [H+]
[H+] = 1 x 10^-5 M

For an acid rain:
1.5 = -log [H+]
[H+] = 0.03 M

The piece of iron that miguel measured had a mass of 51.1 g and a volume of 6.63 cm 3 . what did miguel calculate to be the dens
likoan [24]
Given:
Mass, m = 51.1 g
Volume, V = 6.63 cm³

By definition, 
Density = Mass/Volume
              = (51.1 g)/(6.63 cm³)
              = 7.7074 g/cm³

In SI units,
Density = (7.7074 g/cm³)*(10⁻³ kg/g)*(10² cm/m)³
              = 7707.4 kg/m³

Answer: 7.707 g/cm³ or 7707.4 kg/m³

In a polar reaction mechanism, the atom that gives away electrons in a neutral nucleophile will end up as a(n):
Ray Of Light [21]

The question is incomplete, the complete question is shown in the image attached.

Answer:

Cation

Explanation:

In a polar reaction mechanism, a specie must give out electrons and another specie must accept those electrons.

The specie that gives out electrons becomes electron deficient and positively charged so we refer to such a specie as a cation.

Hence, the specie that looses electrons becomes a cation.

The end point of a titration is defined as the volume of titrant added, while the equivalence point is the volume required for c
natka813 [3]

Answer:

indicator

Explanation:

Indicators are the weak organic dyes which shows different colors in acidic and basic mediums.

Due to the fact that a noticeable pH change occurs near the equivalence point of acid-base titrations, an indicator can be used to signal the end point of a titration.

Therefore, choosing the proper indicator, scientists can minimize the difference in these two numbers, allowing more accurate measurements in the lab.
