Answer: second option: 1.70 to 1.40

Explanation:

1) The definition and formula of pH is - log [H₃O⁺]

2) So, if the original concentration is x and the increased concentration is 2x, you get:

pHi = - logx

pHf = - log 2x = - log 2 - logx

⇒ pHf - pHi = - log2 - logx - (- logx) =  - log2 ≈ - 0.30

⇒ pHi - pHf =  0.30 This is the pH of the final solution (with double concentration of hydronium ions) is 0.30 points lower than the pH of the initial pH.

3) The only choice that shows a decrease of 0.30 in the pH is the second option: 1.70 to 1.40. So that is the answer.

The change that could occur in the pH in the situation, <span>the [H3O+] in a solution is increased to twice the original concentration, is</span> 1.70 to 1.40
 pH formula  is - log [H₃O⁺]



pHi = - logx
pHf = - log 2x = - log 2 - logx
- log2 ≈ - 0.30
pHi - pHf =  0.30 
So there is a decrease of 0.30.

What is the volume of 43.7 g of helium at stp?
tankabanditka [31]
Answer is: volume of helium is 244.72 liters.
m(He) = 43.7 g.
n(He) = m(He) ÷ M(He).
n(He) = 43.7 g ÷ 4 g/mol.
n(He) = 10.925 mol.
V(He) = n(He) · n(He).
V(He) = 10.925 mol · 22.4 L/mol.
V(He) = 244.72 L.
Vm - molar volume at STP.
n - amount of substance.

An atom of the element zinc has an atomic number of 30 and a mass number of 65. How many protons does an uncharged zinc atom hav
navik [9.2K]

Answer : The correct option is, 30 protons

Explanation :

Element = Zinc

Atomic number = 30

Atomic mass number = 65

As we know that the atomic number is equal to the number of electrons and number of protons.

Atomic number = Number of electrons = Number of protons = 30

Number of neutrons = Atomic mass - Number of protons = 65 - 30 = 35

Therefore, the number of protons an uncharged zinc atom have 30 protons.

An ice cube is dropped into a glass of milk at 20°C. Which statement explains the transfer of kinetic energy (KE)?
hoa [83]

Answer:

Because milk has higher KE than ice, KE is transferred from the milk to the molecules of ice.

Explanation:

The best statement that expresses the transfer of kinetic energy(K.E) is that kinetic energy is transferred from the milk to the ice.

Kinetic energy is form of energy due to motion of the particles of a medium. In this regard, we are dealing with heat energy.

  • Heat energy is dissipated from a body at higher temperature to one at a lower temperature.
  • Ice is at a lower temperature which is 0°C
  • Heat will be transferred in form of thermal energy from the body at higher temperature to one with a lower temperature.
  • This is from the milk to the molecules of ice.

Determine whether each description applies to electrophilic aromatic substitution or nucleophilic aromatic substitution.
Alborosie

Answer:

a. electrophilic aromatic substitution

b. nucleophilic aromatic substitution

c. nucleophilic aromatic substitution

d. electrophilic aromatic substitution

e. nucleophilic aromatic substitution

f. electrophilic aromatic substitution

Explanation:

Electrophilic aromatic substitution is a type of chemical reaction where a hydrogen atom or a functional group that is attached to the aromatic ring is replaced by an electrophile. Electrophilic aromatic substitutions can be classified into five classes: 1-Halogenation: is the replacement of one or more hydrogen (H) atoms in an organic compound by a halogen such as, for example, bromine (bromination), chlorine (chlorination), etc; 2- Nitration: the replacement of H with a nitrate group (NO2); 3-Sulfonation: the replacement of H with a bisulfite (SO3H); 4-Friedel-CraftsAlkylation: the replacement of H with an alkyl group (R), and 5-Friedel-Crafts Acylation: the replacement of H with an acyl group (RCO). For example, the Benzene undergoes electrophilic substitution to produce a wide range of chemical compounds (chlorobenzene, nitrobenzene, benzene sulfonic acid, etc).

A nucleophilic aromatic substitution is a type of chemical reaction where an electron-rich nucleophile displaces a leaving group (for example, a halide on the aromatic ring). There are six types of nucleophilic substitution mechanisms: 1-the SNAr (addition-elimination) mechanism, whose name is due to the Hughes-Ingold symbol ''SN' and a unimolecular mechanism; 2-the SN1 reaction that produces diazonium salts 3-the benzyne mechanism that produce highly reactive species (including benzyne) derived from the aromatic ring by the replacement of two substituents; 4-the free radical SRN1 mechanism where a substituent on the aromatic ring is displaced by a nucleophile with the formation of intermediary free radical species; 5-the ANRORC (Addition of the Nucleophile, Ring Opening, and Ring Closure) mechanism, involved in reactions of metal amide nucleophiles and substituted pyrimidines; and 6-the Vicarious nucleophilic substitution, where a nucleophile displaces an H atom on the aromatic ring but without leaving groups (such as, for example, halogen substituents).
