At pH 5, most fish eggs cannot hatch. At lower pH levels, some adult fish die. Some acidic lakes have no fish. Below is the chart with pH levels at which the organism will not exist as acidity in the environment increases. What can be added to the acidic lakes to raise the pH level so these oganisms can survive? Critical pH Levels for Aquatic Organisms Animal Snails Clams Bass Crayfish Mayfly Trout Salamanders Perch Frogs Critical pH level 6 5.5 5.5 5.5 5 5 4.5 4 This figure illustrates the pH level at which key organisms may be lost as their environment becomes more acidic. Not all fish, shellfish, or the insects that they eat can tolerate the same amount of acid. OA. Potassium hydrogen carbonate OB. Epsom salts, MgSO4 OC. Potassium hydroxide OD.Citric acid
Ionic Equilibrium
Chemical equilibrium and ionic equilibrium are two major concepts in chemistry. Ionic equilibrium deals with the equilibrium involved in an ionization process while chemical equilibrium deals with the equilibrium during a chemical change. Ionic equilibrium is established between the ions and unionized species in a system. Understanding the concept of ionic equilibrium is very important to answer the questions related to certain chemical reactions in chemistry.
Arrhenius Acid
Arrhenius acid act as a good electrolyte as it dissociates to its respective ions in the aqueous solutions. Keeping it similar to the general acid properties, Arrhenius acid also neutralizes bases and turns litmus paper into red.
