A conjugate acid is given by the acid-base theory of Bronsted–Lowry. The conjugate acid of a weak base, trimethylamine is ((CH₃)₃NH⁺) trimethylammonium ion.

<h3>What is a conjugate acid?</h3>

A conjugate acid is a compound that has been formed when a base accepts the hydrogen or the proton ion from an acid. It can also be said that a hydrogen ion is added to a base.

The conjugate acid differs from the base by the addition of one proton ion to it. The reaction of a weak base, trimethylamine can be shown as,

(CH₃)₃N(aq) + H₃O⁺(aq) ⇌ (CH₃)₃NH⁺(aq) + H₂O(l)

Here, the trimethylamine compound has accepted a proton from hydronium to produce a conjugate acid, trimethylammonium cation, (CH₃)₃NH⁺.

Therefore, trimethylammonium (CH₃)₃NH⁺ is the conjugate acid of trimethylamine.

in the reaction Mg (s) + 2HCl (aq) -> H2 (g) + MGCl (aq), how many moles of hydrogen gas will be produced from 75.0 millilite

cricket20 [7]

Step One
Find the moles of HCl
C = 1.0 mol/L
V = 75 mL = 75 / 1000 = 0.75 L
Note the concentration is in Liters.

Formula
n = C*V

Solve
n = 1.0 * 0.075
n = 0.075 moles

Step two
Adjust the number of moles of HCl
How every mol of H2 produced, you will require 2 mol of HCl

$\frac{2 mol HCl}{1 mol H_2} = \frac{0.075\text{mol of HCl given}}{x}$

2/1 = 0.075/x Cross multiply
2x = 0.075 Divide by 2
x = 0.075 / 2
x = 0.0375 moles of H2 <<<<<<<<< Answer

Describe what Rutherford would have seen in his gold foil experiment if J.J Thompson's Plum Pudding model was completly accurate

nata0808 [166]

Answer is: Rutherford demonstrate that J.J Thompson's Plum Pudding model was not accurate.

Rutherford theorized that atoms have their charge concentrated in a very small nucleus.
This was famous Rutherford's Gold Foil Experiment: he bombarded thin foil of gold with positive alpha particles (helium atom particles, consist of two protons and two neutrons).
Rutherford observed the deflection of alpha particles on the photographic film and notice that most of alpha particles passed straight through foil.
That is different from Plum Pudding model, because it shows that most of the atom is empty space.

What is a reliable source ?

gayaneshka [121]

A reliable source is a provider of information that is accurate, unbiased, and experienced. A magazine article is probably not a reliable source, while an encyclopedia is.

You should always check who the authors and verify their experience as it is often a good indication of whether or not something is reliable.

SSA PRACTICE QUESTION

Leto [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is - so that other scientists can replicate the experiment and make sure the results are correct or to check accuracy.

Explanation:

The data and procudres are required to be recorded or noted correctly so the experiment and research can be replicate and tested for the accuracy of the experiment by other scientist and researcher.

Mandy also need to note procedure, data, variables and other data correctly for the testing the accuracy and replication of the experiment. The replication is essential to check if every thing is correct and result are error free.
