Explanation:

Two acids we come into contact with in an average week

  1. Vinegar is an 10% solution of acetic acid (CH_3COOH)in water. Used in salad dressing and while cooking food. It has a sour taste.
  2. Citric acid present in fruits and vegetables like : lemons, orange, tomatoes etc. It is a weak organic acid with sour taste.

Two bases we come into contact with in an average week.  

  1. Baking soda (NaHCO_3) is used in baking food like: cakes, cookies, breads. Baking soda is one of the ingredient while baking breads and cakes.
  2. Caustic soda (NaOH) is used for preparation of detergents, papers , soaps etc. We use soaps and detergents for washing.

1 common acid that is used on a daily basis is Hydrochloric Acid in your stomach. It actives the enzyme pepsin into pepsinogen to degenerate proteins. Another acid is vinegar which is used in cooking and cleaning. 

A base I use on a daily basis is Tums as it has sodium bicarbonate, a common base used to neutralize stomach acids. Another one is ammonia which is used for hair and cleaning products.

Which corresponds to a pressure of 1.23 atm??
Vadim26 [7]

Atmospheric pressure<span>, sometimes also called barometric pressure, is the pressure exerted by the weight of air in the </span>atmosphere of Earth<span> (or that of another planet)</span>

1 atm is equivalent to = 101325 Pa

= 760 mmHg

= 760 torr

= 1.01325 bar

So 1.23 atm is equal to

= 124629.8 Pa

= 934.8 mmHg

= 934.8 torr

<span>= 1.2462 bar</span>

g The reaction; 4 Ag(s) + O2(g) ----&gt; 2 Ag2O(s), is exothermic. Which statement about the reaction is correct? (A) It is spon
melomori [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is B. It is spontaneous only at low temperatures.

Explanation:

In thermodynamics, the Gibbs free energy is a thermodynamic potential that can be used to calculate the maximum of reversible work that may be performed by a thermodynamic system at a constant temperature and pressure.

The spontaneity of a reaction is given by the equation:

ΔG = ΔH - TΔS

where:

ΔH: enthalpy variation

T: absolute temperature

ΔS: entropy variation

As the reaction is exothermic, ΔH<0

As the reaction order increases (the reagents are solid and gas and their product is solid), ΔS<0

Therefore, the reaction will be spontaneous when ΔG is negative.

ΔG = ΔH - TΔS

That is, the entropy term must be smaller than the enthalpy term.

Hence, the reaction will be spontaneous only at low temperatures.
