What is a Lewis acid-base reaction?

In the Lewis theory of acid-base reactions, bases donate pairs of electrons and acids accept pairs of electrons.

A Lewis acid is therefore any substance, such as the H+ ion, that can accept a pair of nonbonding electrons. In other words, a Lewis acid is an electron-pair acceptor.

A Lewis base is any substance, such as the OH- ion, that can donate a pair of nonbonding electrons. A Lewis base is therefore an electron-pair donor.

The Lewis theory suggests that acids react with bases to share a pair of electrons, with no change in the oxidation numbers of any atoms.

A 225-g sample of aluminum was heated to 125.5 oc, then placed into 500.0 g water at 22.5 oc. (the specific heat of aluminum is
Sidana [21]
when  heat gained = heat lost 

when AL is lost heat and water gain heat

∴ (M*C*ΔT)AL = (M*C*ΔT) water

when M(Al) is the mass of Al= 225g 

C(Al) is the specific heat of Al = 0.9 

ΔT(Al) = (125.5 - Tf) 

and Mw is mass of water  = 500g

Cw is the specific heat of water = 4.81 

ΔT = (Tf - 22.5) 

so by substitution:

∴225* 0.9 * ( 125.5 - Tf) = 500 * 4.81 * (Tf-22.5)

∴Tf = 30.5 °C

100 ml is drawn from 0.1 M solution of KCl and added to 900 ml of water. What is the
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

The new concentration will be 0.01 M.

Explanation:

To determine the new concentration we use the following formula.

concentration (1) × volume (1) = concentration (2) × volume (2)

concentration (1) = 0.1 M

volume (1) = 100 mL

concentration (2) = unknown

volume (2) = 100 mL + 900 mL = 1000 mL

concentration (2) = [concentration (1) × volume (1)] / volume (2)

concentration (2) = (0.1 × 100) / 1000 = 0.01 M
