Question
the use of logic making empirical observations and preforming dissections were all part of the scientific studies by
Solution 1

The answer is: Aristotle.

Aristotle (384–322 BC) was an ancient Greek philosopher.

He was interested in empirical studies and shifted from Platonism to empiricism.

Empiricism is a theory that states that knowledge comes from sensory experience and through experiments.

Empirical evidence is the information received by observation through experimentation.

Question
When fracking liquid waste is left in pools on the surface, _ can evaporate into the air and contribute to pollution
Solution 1

Answer:

The answer is "toxic chemicals".

Explanation:

Hydraulic fracture uses compounds such as sand to prevent fractures from closing, chemical additives, and several hundred chemical products, some very toxic and carcinogenic, that perform the function of preventing gas and oil from becoming contaminated. They are also used to prevent corrosion. By depositing fracking liquid waste in the pools, the most volatile products tend to evaporate contributing to air pollution. Some of the elements contained in this wastewater are selenium, radio, and lead.

Have a nice day!

Solution 2
When fracking liquid waste is left in pools on the surface, Toxic Waste or Toxic Chemicals can evaporate into the air and contribute to pollution. A new study shows that these spills have left surface waters in the area carrying radium, selenium, thallium, lead, and other toxic chemicals that can continue for years at unsafe levels. 
Question
PLEASE HELP! I'll mark brainliest! What is the concentration of H+ ions at a pH = 8? mol/L What is the concentration of OH– ions at a pH = 8? mol/L What is the ratio of H+ ions to OH– ions at a pH = 8?
Solution 1
Acidic and basic are two extremes that describe chemicals, just like hot and cold are two extremes that describe temperature. Mixing acids and bases can cancel out their extreme effects, much like mixing hot and cold water can even out the water temperature. A substance that is neither acidic nor basic is neutral. 
The character of acidic, basic and neutral is defined by the concentration of hydrogen ions [H+](mol/L). A solution with a concentration of hydrogen ions higher than 10-7mol/L is acidic, and a solution with a lower concentration is alkaline (another way to say basic). Using the formula, pH=-log[H+], a pH of 7 is neutral, a pH less than 7 is acidic, and a pH greater than 7 is basic. As one can see from this formula, ten times a given concentration of hydrogen ions means one unit lower in terms of pH value (higher acidity), and vice versa. 
The formula for ph is given by:pH=−log10[H+]

What is the concentration of H+ ions at a pH = 8?

In calculating for the concentration of hydrogen ion, the formula is given by:[H+]=(10)^(-pH)
Solution:
[H+]=(10)^(-8)[H+]=0.00000001 mol/L

What is the concentration of OH– ions at a pH = 8?pH+pOH=148+pOH=14pOH=6
[OH-]=(10)^(-pOH)[OH-]=(10)^(-6)[OH-]=0.000001
What is the ratio of H+ ions to OH– ions at a pH = 2?The ratio is 0.00000001:0.000001 which is equal to 0.01

Solution 1
A is the right answer
Question
How many moles of Pb(NO3)2 are required if 8 moles of PbCI2 are produced?
Solution 1
PbCl₂ can be synthesized from Pb(NO₃)₂ using various reagents. I will be using HCl as follow,

                     Pb(NO₃)₂  +  2 HCl    →     PbCl₂  +  2 HNO₃

According to equation,

                       1 mole of PbCl₂ is formed by  =  1 mole of Pb(NO₃)₂
So,
          8 moles of PbCl₂ will be produced by  =  X moles of Pb(NO₃)₂

Solving for X,
                       X  =  (8 mol × 1 mol) ÷ 1 mol

                       X  =  8 mol of Pb(NO₃)₂
Result:
            
8 mol of Pb(NO₃)₂ are required to produce 8 moles of PbCl₂.
Question
If a gas is formed when mixing two liquids together why might you not see any bubbles

I'm no chemist, but not every chemical reaction has to bubble. For instance, when you put dry ice in water it creates a mist, but it doesn't make the water bubble.
Question

Question
Water is sometimes removed from the products of a reaction by placing the products in a closed container with excess P4O10. Water is absorbed by the following reaction. P4O10 + 6H2O es001-1.jpg 4H3PO4 What is the mole ratio of water to H3PO4? Do not simplify the ratio. Hes001-2.jpgO:Hes001-3.jpgPOes001-4.jpg = :4
Solution 1
H2O:H3PO4 = 6:4.
I just took the test and got it right!

Solution 2

Answer : The correct answer for mole ratio of H₂O : H₃PO₄ = 6: 4 .

Mole ratio :

It is defined as mole of one substance to another substance in a balanced reaction . In the balanced reaction , the coefficient written before the substances are taken as moles of that substance.

The given balanced reaction between P₄H₁₀ and H₂O is :

P₄O₁₀ + 6 H₂O → 4 H₃PO₄

Mole of H₂O = 6

Mole of H₃PO₄ = 4

Hence mole ratio of Water : H₃PO₄ = 6 : 4


Question
A 98.0°C piece of cadmium (c=.850J/g°C) is placed in 150.0g of 37.0°C water. After sitting for a few minutes, both have a temperature of 38.6°C. What was the mass of the cadmium sample?
Solution 1
The answer is 19.9 grams cadmium. 
Assuming there was no heat leaked from the system, the heat q lost by cadmium would be equal to the heat gained by the water:
     heat lost by cadmium = heat gained by the water
     -qcadmium = qwater
Since q is equal to mcΔT, we can now calculate for the mass m of the cadmium sample:
     -qcadmium = qwater
     -(mcadmium)(0.850J/g°C)(38.6°C-98.0°C)) = 150.0g(4.18J/g°C)(38.6°C-37.0°C)
     mcadmium = 19.9 grams
