Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Salts are produced from the reaction of an acid and a base. In general ...

Acid + Base => Salt + Weak Electrolyte

Acids from the 'Arrhenius Definition' contain an 'ionizable' hydrogen (-H). Such as, HCl, HBr, HI, HNO₃, HClO₄, HF, etc.

Bases from the 'Arrhenius Definition' contain an 'ionizable' hydroxide (-OH). Such as, LiOH, NaOH, KOH, CsOH, Ca(OH)₂, etc.

When the acid and base react, they proceed by what is known as a 'Double Replacement Reaction' or 'Metathesis Reaction'. In the process, the ions of the reactant compounds exchange positions such that a 'Driving Force' compound is formed on the product side. The Driving Force compound is <u>always</u> on the product side of the equation and is a compound that takes one of three forms => A precipitating salt, a compound of a weak acid or weak base (weaker than the starting acid or base) or gas decomposition product (~ vinegar + backing soda rxn => CO₂ gas).

For your problem, split the compound into cations and anions. You can usually tell which is which by using this format on formulas like those listed in your question => reading formula from left to right, place an imaginary line after the 1st metal => this metal will be the cation & the remaining formula will be the anion.

KBr => K | Br => K (Potassium) is the cation (K⁺) and Br (Bromide) is the anion (Br⁻)

KBr => K⁺ + Br⁻

Now. Apply this rule => Add 'H' to anion => HBr,  then add 'OH' to cation => KOH.

HBr is the acid and KOH is the base. Therefore ...        

Acid + Base => Salt + Wk Electrolyte

HBr + KOH => KBr + H₂O (note how ions of reactants exchange places to form products).

So, KBr comes from the reaction of acid HBr and base KOH.

HBr + KOH => KBr + H₂O

To determine the acid and base origins of LiCl and NaF, use the same logic. Hope this helps. Doc :-)

Answer:

Calcium

Explanation:

"Calcium is a mineral that is necessary for life. In addition to building bones and keeping them healthy, calcium enables our blood to clot, our muscles to contract, and our heart to beat. About 99% of the calcium in our bodies is in our bones and teeth. "

What is the molarity of a solution of 14.0 g NH4Br in enough H2O to make 150 mL of solution?
kiruha [24]
The molarity of a solution equals to the mole number of the solute/the volume of the solution. For NH4Br, we know that the mole mass is 98. So the molarity is (14/98) mol /0.15 L=0.95 mol/L.

Calculate the ph of sweater which has a hydrogen ion concentration of 1 times 10 to the power of 8
telo118 [61]

Answer:

The pH of the sweater containing Hydrogen ion concentration

[H^{+}]=1\times 10^{-8} is

<u>8</u>

<u></u>

Explanation:

pH = It is the negative logarithm of activity (concentration) of hydrogen ions.

pH = -log([H+])

Now, In the question the concentration of [H+] ions is :

[H^{+}]=1\times 10^{-8}

pH = -log(1\times 10^{-8})

use the relation:

log(10^{-a})=a

pH= -(-8)

pH = 8

Note : <em><u> 1 times 10 to the power of 8 must be" 1 times 10 to the power of -8"</u></em>

If the concentration is

[H^{+}]=1\times 10^{8}

Then pH = -8 , which is not possible . So in that  case the pH calculation is by other method

Which of the following would NOT diffuse through the plasma membrane by means of simple diffusion?1 oxygen2 glucose3 a steroid h
Mumz [18]

Answer:

Option 2= Glucose

Explanation:

Cell membrane is made up of two phospholipid layers and each contain phosphate head and fatty acid or lipid tails. the head is present between the outer and inner boundaries and tail is present in between. The small non- polar molecules can pass the membrane through simple diffusion. This lipid tail restrict the passage of polar molecules including water soluble substances like glucose. However, transmembranes are present that allow the molecules to inter that are blocked by the tails.

Facilitated diffusion:

it is a type of diffusion in which caries protein without using the cellular energy shuttle the molecules to the cell membrane. Glucose is bind on the carrier protein ,change the shape and transport it from one to another side of membrane. In order to absorb the glucose red blood cells use this kind of diffusion.

Primary active transport:

The cells that are present along small intestine use this type of transport to pump the glucose inside the cell. The primary active transport require energy to transport the glucose inside.

Secondary active transport:

It is another method of transport of glucose into the cell. This method can not use ATP but it is based on concentration gradient of the sodium that provide electro chemical energy for the glucose transport.
