The synthetic compound Zn(C2H3O2)2 is zinc acetic acid derivation. The molecular composition demonstrates that the mixes incorporate zinc, spoke to by Zn; carbon, spoke to by C; hydrogen, spoke to by H; and oxygen, spoke to by O. Below is the <span>an equation that shows how the anion acts as a base:

Explanations:- Acetate ion is a conjugate base of a weak acid(acetic acid). From Bronsted-Lowry concept of acid and base, "Acids are proton donor where as bases are proton acceptors.

To work as a base, acetate ion would be accepting a proton. Water is an amphoteric compound means it could act as an acid as well as a base. So, let's write the reaction of acetate ion with water to show how it acts as a base.

C_2H_3O_2^-(aq)+H_2O(l)\rightleftharpoons HC_2H_3O_2(aq)+OH^-(aq)

In the above reaction, acetate ion has accepted a proton from water means its a base and since water has donated a proton so its an acid.

Acetic acid is the conjugate acid of acetate ion and hydroxide ion is the conjugate base of water.

What is 30-9x2*2-21-4+4
IgorC [24]
Answer:
9 (1-2x²)

Explanation:
The given expression is:
30 - 9x²*2 - 21 - 4 + 4
The first step is to compute the multiplication. This will give:
30 - 18x² - 21 - 4 + 4
Then, we will add like terms as follows:
(30-21-4+4) - 18x²
= 9 - 18x²
Finally, we can take the 9 as a common factor from both terms, this will give:
9 (1-2x²)

Hope this helps :)
