The correct answer is option C. The outcome of putting litmus paper into bleach would be that red paper turns blue, blue paper does not change. Domestic bleach is a strong base it typically has a pH of 11 to 13. So when testing for pH, it would really go with the basic characteristics.

Answer:

The correct option is c

Explanation:

The major ingredient in household bleach is sodium hypochlorite (NaClO). This compound is a base and the bleach solution assumes this alkalinity status.

A base is a substance that produces hydroxyl/hydroxide ion (OH⁻) as the only negative ion when dissolved in water. The pH of a base is between 7 to 14. One of the major properties of base is that it turns red litmus paper blue and it has no effect on blue litmus paper.

Why do we need neutrons in the nucleus?

prohojiy [21]

Answer:

Neutrons are required for the stability of nuclei, with the exception of the single-proton hydrogen nucleus. Neutrons are produced copiously in nuclear fission and fusion. They are a primary contributor to the nucleosynthesis of chemical elements within stars through fission, fusion, and neutron capture processes.

Ammonia (NH3) reacts with sulfuric acid to form ammonium sulfate. How many grams of ammonium sulfate are obtained from 8.73 g of

Gwar [14]

I hope you understand my working:
1) Finding the mol of NH3 to find the mol of (NH4)2SO4 (ammonium sulfate)
2) Mr of (NH4)2SO4
3) Theoretical yield: The actual grams of (NH4)2SO4 produced when reacting 0.514 mol of NH3 to 0.514 mol H2SO4
4) Using formula of (given grams)/(theoretical grams or actual grams) * 100 = 73%
5) Basic algebra
