Answer:
λ = 1.43 x 10³ meters (radio waves)
Explanation:
c = f·λ => λ = c/f
λ = wavelength = ?
f = frequency = 2.10 x 10¹⁴ Hz = 2.10 x 10¹⁴ cycles/sec
c = speed of light (vacuum) = 3.0 x 10⁸m/sec
λ = c/f = 3.0 x 10⁸m/sec / 2.10 x 10¹⁴sec⁻¹ = 1.43 x 10³ meters (radio waves)
Answer:
a. pH = 2 b. pH = 3 c. pH = 1 d. Unanswerable
Explanation:
pH = -log[H+] OR pH = -log{H3O+]
and inversely
pOH = -log[OH-]
1. Determine what substance you are working with, (acid/base)
2. Determine whether or not that acid or base is strong or weak.
a. 1.0 x 10^-2M HCl
HCl is a strong acid, therefore it will dissociate completely into H+ and Cl- with all ions going to the H+, therefore, the concentration of HCl and concentration of H+ are going to be equal, meaning we simply take the negative logarithm of the concentration of HCl and that would equal pH
pH = -log[H+]
pH = -log(1.0x10^-2)
pH = 2
b. 1.0 x 10^-3M HNO3
HNO3 like part a, is a strong acid, therefore it would simply require you to take the negative logarithm of the concentration of the compound itself, to find its pH.
pH = -log[H+]
pH = -log(1.0 x 10^-3)
pH = 3
c. 1.0 x 10^-1M HI
Like the previous parts, HI is a strong acid
pH = -log[H+]
pH = -log(0.10)
pH = 1
d. HB isn't an element, nor is it a compound so that would be unanswerable.
