Normal rain has a pH of about 5.5 whereas the most acidic rain measured in Los Angeles had a pH of 1.5. How much more concentrat

ed in H+ is the acid rain than the normal rain?

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

Classify the following as a type of potential energy or kinetic energy (use the letters K or P)
Zanzabum
K, P, K, K, P, K, K, P, K, P. If it is moving, it is kinetic, if it isn't, it's potential. the sugar one is a little tricky using that method though, because we generally consider this in terms of spacial movement, but sugar holds energy which is later released by your body to allow you to move.the chemical bonds have potential energy because they release energy when broken.

There is water on the pan of the scale as you measure the mass of an object. If you were to ignore the water, what would be the
mihalych1998 [28]
Remember that density refers to the "mass per unit volume" of an object.

So, if an object had a mass of 100 grams and a volume of 100 milliliters, the density would be 100 grams / 100 ml.

In the question, water on the surface of the scale would add weight, so the mass of the object that you're weighing would appear to be heavier than it really is. If that happens, you'll incorrectly assume that the density is GREATER than it really is

As an example, suppose that there was 5 ml of water on the surface of the scale. Water has a density of 1 gram per milliliter (1 g/ml) so the water would add 5 grams to the object's weight. If we use the example above, the mass of the object would seem to be 105 grams, rather than 100 grams. So, you would calculate:

density = mass / volume
density = 105 grams / 100 ml
density = 1.05 g/ml

The effect on density would be that it would erroneously appear to be greater

Hope this helps!

Good luck

How it looks. basically the thing that tells you how it change. for example if an ice cube was melted (heat), it only changed physically not chemically as the h20 molecules are still there. however lets say you burn woos— you cant get that would back. its ash now and it has changed chemically.

Identify the most and the least acidic compound in each of the following sets.
il63 [147K]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Our answer options for this question are:

a. 2-chlorobutanoic acid:_______ 2-chlorobutanoic acid:_______ 3-chlorobutanoic acid:______.

b. 2,4-dinitrobenzoic acid:______ p-nitrobenzoic acid:______ p-bromobenzoic acid:_______.

c. p-cyanobenzoic acid:________ benzoic acid:_______ p-aminobenzoic acid:______

We have to check each set of molecules

<u>a. 2-chlorobutanoic acid,</u> <u>3-chlorobutanoic acid</u>

<u />

In this case, the difference between these molecules is the position of "Cl". If the chlorine atom is closer to the acid group, we will have a higher inductive effect. So, the bond O-H would be weaker and we will have more acidity. So, the molecule with more acidity is <u>2-chlorobutanoic acid</u> and the less acidic would be <u>3-chlorobutanoic acid.</u>

<u />

<u>b. 2,4-dinitrobenzoic acid,</u> <u>p-nitrobenzoic acid,</u> <u>p-bromobenzoic acid</u>

<u />

In this case, we have several structural differences. In all the structure, we have deactivating groups (Br and NO_2). If we have a deactivating group the acidity will increase. In the case of "Br", we have a weak deactivating, so, this will be the less acidic one (<u>p-bromobenzoic acid)</u>

in <u>2,4-dinitrobenzoic acid</u> we have two deactivating groups, therefore, this would be the most acid compound.

<u>c. p-cyanobenzoic acid</u>, <u>benzoic acid</u>, <u>p-aminobenzoic acid</u>

On these molecules, we have several structural differences. In <u>p-cyanobenzoic acid</u> we have a deactivating group, therefore in this molecule we will have more acidity. In the <u>p-aminobenzoic acid,</u> we have an activating group, so, this would be the less acidic compound.

<u />

See figure 1

I hope it helps!

What is the enthalpy of reaction for the
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

\boxed{\text{656.3 kJ/mol}}

Explanation:

The formula for calculating the enthalpy change of a reaction by using the enthalpies of formation of reactants and products is:

\Delta_{\text{r}}H^{\circ} = \sum \Delta_{\text{f}} H^{\circ} (\text{products}) - \sum\Delta_{\text{f}}H^{\circ} (\text{reactants})

                         CaCO₃(s) ⟶ CaO(s) + CO₂(g)

ΔH°f/kJ·mol⁻¹:    -1207.1          -157.3    -393.5

\begin{array}{rcl}\Delta_{\text{r}}H^{\circ} & = & [-157.3 + (-393.5)] - (-1207.1)\\& = & -550.8 +1207.1\\& = & \textbf{656.3 kJ/mol}\\\end{array}\\\\\text{The enthalpy of decomposition is } \boxed{\textbf{656.3 kJ/mol}}
