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.

moles C₂H₂ = 1.10 * 2  / 4

moles C₂H₂ = 0.55 moles of C₂H₂

Mass acetylene:

m = n * mm

m = 0.55 * 26.0

m = 14.3 g

In order to understand the prehistory of the Hawaiian island of Lana'i better, anthropologists Maria Sweeney, Melinda Allen, and
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

500 years

Explanation:

The original carbon-14 was 100%, and after 100 years, it decays 1.202%. So after 100 years it goes to 98.798%, after more 100 years (200 years), it will be 97.596% (98.798 - 1.202), thus, after n 100 years "package", the percenatge will be:

100% - actual% = n*1.202

n = (100% - actual%)/1.202

n = (100% - 94%)/1.202

n = 4.992

So, the number of years is n*100 = 4.992*100 = 499.2 ≅ 500 years.
