An atom of helium and one of argon are singly ionized - one electron is removed from each. The two ions are then accelerated from rest by the electric field between two plates with a potential difference of 150 V.

What happens after the two ions accelerate from one plate to the other?

a) The helium ion has more kinetic energy.
b ) The argon ion has more kinetic energy.
c) Both ions have the same kinetic energy.
d) There is not enough information to say which ion has more kinetic energy.

Both ions have the same kinetic energy.

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of the ions depends on the accelerating potential. The greater the accelerating potential, the greater the kinetic energy of the ions and vice versa. Ions are usually accelerated in such a way that they all have the same kinetic energy. Since the accelerating potential of the He+ and Ar+ are the same, they will both possess the same kinetic energy.

the answer is false

explanation:

hello, i am papaguy.

i have found an answer to your question but use it as information.

information: because weak acids/bases have low concentration of hydrogen ions, the addition of water has a large impact on the ph. 2. a difference in 1 unit is a 10x difference in concentration for example; a liquid with ph of 3 is 10x more acidic than a liquid with a ph of 4. therefore, a liquid with a ph of 3 is stronger.

best of luck!
