As there is almost one-third of the oxygen available at the summit of K2 as there is on sea level. It is covered with glaciers and snow covered mountains that rise from its base at about 15000 feet on the Godwin Austen Glacier, a tributary of the Baltoro Glacier. The mountain was first discovered and measured in 1856 by Col. T.G.
The reason NaCl doesn't change the pH of a solution is because the cation (Na+) and anion (Cl-) that are produced when NaCl is dissolved are really weak acids and bases. We know this because their conjugate acid and base partners are really strong acids and bases. The conjugate base of Na+ is NaOH and the conjugate acid of Cl- is HCl. Look how tiny those dissociation constants are. Those dissociation constants tell us that the reaction will lie very far to the left.
Re: Acidic and Basic Salts. Ok first of all, you need to work out the acid and base that formed this salt. For NaHSO4, H2SO4 is a strong acid, and NaOH is a strong base, and so the salt formed from these two, NaHSO4, is a neutral salt.For CaCl2, it came from HCl, a strong acid, and Ca(OH)2, a strong base, and therefore the salt, CaCl2, will also be neutral.Thats wrong, Sodium Bisulfate is an acidic salt, its because sulfuric acid is diprotic, So when it forms HSO4, HSO4 is a weak acid.or NaHSO4, H2SO4 is a strong acid, and NaOH is a strong base, and so the salt formed from these two, NaHSO4, is a neutral salt. For CaCl2, it came from HCl, a strong acid, and Ca(OH)2, a strong base, and therefore the salt, CaCl2, will also be neutral. 2011 ATAR: 99.30 Fort Street High Schoool â.
