An Arrhenius base is a molecule that when dissolved in water will break down to yield an OH^- or hydroxide in solution.

<h3>What is Arrhenius base?</h3>

An Arrhenius base is a compound that increases the OH− ion concentration in aqueous solution.

An Arrhenius base is a substance that, when dissolved in an aqueous solution, increases the concentration of hydroxide, or OH^-, ions in the solution.

Bases Properties

Arrhenius bases that are soluble in water can conduct electricity.

Bases often have a bitter taste and are found in foods less frequently than acids. Many bases, like soaps, are slippery to the touch.

Bases also change the colour of indicators. Red litmus turns blue in the presence of a base (see figure below), while phenolphthalein turns pink.

Some bases react with metals to produce hydrogen gas.

Acids (pH < 7.0) react with bases (pH > 7.0) to produce a salt and water. When equal moles of an acid and a base are combined, the acid is neutralized by the base. The resulting mixture will have a more neutral pH.

An Arrhenius acid is a substance that dissociates in water to form hydrogen ions or protons. In other words, it increases the number of H+ ions in the water. In contrast, an Arrhenius base dissociates in water to form hydroxide ions, OH^-.

Example, sodium hydroxide, is added to an aqueous solution. NaOH dissociates into sodium, Na^+, and hydroxide, OH^-, ions.

We could reduce soil erosion and recycle phosphorus from farm and human waste so that we could help make food production sustainable and prevent algae blooms. We can also do land reclamation as well to help solve this problem. With the land, we would have to design a system to where the land could be functional again in order to plant crops, trees, also to help the wildlife that was once a part of the island. Therefore if the design is done before the mining then afterward we can do the reclamation of the land which would help the people to be able to function after the mining. It would also help the future generations that come along after the previous generations. Everyone must work together in the process in order for everyone to survive. If all this is done then the people of the island would not have to import their food. The reclamation process is the most important thing that has to be designed first whether it is land, soil, water, lakes, and clay then after plant trees, vegetation, and other forms of plants to help replenish the land after the mining is done.

Which cup has more thermal energy?
dybincka [34]

<em>Question: </em><em>Which cup has more thermal energy?</em>

<em>                   A. 2 liter cup of milk</em>

<em>                   B. 1 liter cup of milk</em>

<em>Answer: A. 2 liter cup of milk</em>

<em />

<em>Explanation:</em>

We have milk in both of the containers. The milk in both containers is the same temperature, so we will have to measure the amount of molecules. The amount of molecules makes it warmer, and if it is warmer, that is more energy. 2 liters have more thermal energy than 1 liter, because it has more molecules.

Our answer is 2 liter cup of milk.

The absolute temperature of a gas is increased four times while maintaining a constant volume. What happens to the pressure of
lianna [129]

Answer:

DECREASE BY A FACTOR OF FOUR

Explanation:

Using pressure equation:

P 1 / T1 = P2 /T2     (at constant volume)

P1 = P

T1 =T

P2 = ?

T2 = 4 T

So therefore;

P2 = P1T1/ T2

P2 = P T/ 4 T

P2 = 1/4 P

The pressure is decreased by a factor of four, the new pressure is a quarter of the formal pressure of the gas.
