Which one of the following statements best describes a solution with a pH of 3?

A) It has an H3O+ ion concentration of 1 × 10−3 mol/L and is basic.
B) It has an H3O+ ion concentration of 1 × 103 mol/L and is acidic.
C) It has an H3O+ ion concentration of 1 × 103 mol/L and is basic.
D) It has an H3O+ ion concentration of 1 × 10−3 mol/L and is acidic.

Statement D is the correct option as the solution will have pH of 3. It has an H3O+ ion concentration of 1 × mol/L and is acidic.

Explanation:

It is given in question that solution must have pH of 3. The value if being less than 7 shows that solution is acidic. The pH value of 3 indicates that given solution is highly acidic and has strong acid. Strong acid gets fully dissociated into ions.

pH of the solution is calculated as:

pH = -log10[]

the concentration or molarity of the hydronium ion is given as moles/litre

concentration of hydronium ion in the solution is 1 X moles/litre

putting the values in the equation:

pH = - log10( 1 X )

pH = 3 (acidic)

Thus it can be concluded that D option is the right answer.

when 25.0 ml of 0.700 mol/l naoh was mixed in a calorimeter with 25.0 ml of 0.700 mol/l hcl, both initially at 20.0 °c, the temperature increased to 22.1 °c. the heat capacity of the calorimeter is 279 j/°c.

the equation for the reaction is:

naoh + hcl → nacl + h₂o

moles of hcl = 0.0250 l hcl ×

1 l hcl = 0.0175 mol hcl

volume of solution = (25.0 + 25.0) ml = 50.0 ml

question: ray weighs 100 kilograms, his wrestling partner, bobby, weighs 50 kilograms. if ray moves at 4 m s , how fast will bobby have to run at him to apply an equal amount of kinetic energy?

answer: 8 m/s he needs to run twice as fast to keep up so he has some work to do

explanation:   if the mass has units of kilograms and the velocity of meters per second, the kinetic energy has units of kilograms-meters squared per second squared.
