Suppose you needed to explain the concept of the mole to a junior high school student. What would you tell them?

Water ionizes by the equation h2o(l)⇌h+(aq)+oh−(aq) the extent of the reaction is small in pure water and dilute aqueous solutions. this reaction creates the following relationship between [h+] and [oh−]: kw=[h+][oh−] keep in mind that, like all equilibrium constants, the value of kw changes with temperature.

Consider the reduction reactions and their equilibrium constants. cu+(aq)+e−↽−−⇀cu(s)pb2+(aq)+2e−↽−−⇀ pb(s)fe3+(aq)+3e−↽−−⇀fe(=6.2×108=4. 0×10−5=9.3×10−3 cu + ( aq ) + e − ↽ − − ⇀ cu ( s ) k =6.2× 10 8 pb 2 + ( aq ) +2 e − ↽ − − ⇀ pb ( s ) k =4.0× 10 − 5 fe 3 + ( aq ) +3 e − ↽ − − ⇀ fe ( s ) k =9.3× 10 − 3 arrange these ions from strongest to weakest oxidizing agent.

How can carbon move from "land" to bodies of water? describe the way human impact has lead to increased levels of co2 in the atmosphere.
