Compare the hydronium ion concentration of the solution having a ph of 2.0 to the hydronium ion concentration of the other solution given to the student.

pH is a scale used to measure the acidity or alkalinity of an aqueous solution. It can be used to calculate the amount of hydronium ions in the solution. It is expressed as the negative logarithm to the base 10 of the concentration.

pH = -log [H+]

2.0 = -log [H+]

[H+] = 0.01 M

first let us lay out the formula for potential

and kinetic energy:

pe = mgh

ke = (mv^2)/2

where: m=mass, v=velocity, g=gravitational

acceleration, h=height

calculating for mass using the known values of

pe:

340j = m (9.81 m/s^2) (50ft) (1m/3.28ft)

m = 2.27 kg

the law of conservation of energy states that

energy is neither created nor destroyed. therefore, the change in kinetic

energy from 50 ft to 35 ft would be equal to the change in potential energy

from 50 ft to 35 ft. however it would be opposite in signs since one is losing

while other is gaining.

ke(35ft) – ke(50ft) = - [ pe(35ft) – pe(50ft]

ke(50ft) = 0 since the brick is initially at rest

ke(35ft) = 340j - 2.27kg (9.81 m/s^2) (35ft)

(1m/3.28 ft)

ke(35ft)

= 102.38 j
