Answer:

See figure 1

Explanation:

If we want to find the acid and the Brønsted-Lowry base, we must remember the definition for each of these molecules:

-) Acid: hydrogen donor

-) Base: hydrogen acceptor

In the <u>caffeine structure,</u> we have several atoms of nitrogen. These nitrogen atoms have the ability to <u>accept</u> hydronium ions (H^+). Therefore the caffeine molecule will be the base since it can accept

If caffeine is the base, the water must be the acid. So, the water in this reaction donated a hydronium ion.

<u>Thus, caffeine is the base and water the acid. (See figure 1)</u>

How many grams of hydrochloric acid will react completely with a block of gold is 3.2 cm by 3.8 cm by 2.8 cm, if the density of
JulijaS [17]
Answer:
mass of HCl = 243.5426 grams

Explanation:
1- we will get the mass of the reacting gold:
volume of gold = length * width * height
volume of gold = 3.2 * 3.8 * 2.8 = 34.048 cm^3 = 34.048 ml<span>
density = mass / volume
Therefore:
mass = density * volume
mass of gold = </span>19.3 * 34.048 = 657.1264 grams

2- we will get the number of moles of the reacting gold:
number of moles = mass / molar mass
number of moles = 657.1264 / 196.96657 
number of moles = 3.3362 moles

3- we will get the number of moles of the HCl:
First, we will balanced the given equation. The balanced equation will be as follows:
Au + 2HCl ......> AuCl2 + H2
This means that one mole of Au reacts with 2 moles of HCl.
Therefore 3.3362 moles will react with 2*3.3362 = 6.6724 moles of HCL

4- we will get the mass of the HCl:
From the periodic table:
molar mass of H = 1 gram
molar mass of Cl = 35.5 grams
Therefore:
molar mass of HCl = 1 + 35.5 = 36.5 grams/mole
number of moles = mass / molar mass
Therefore:
mass = number of moles * molar mass
mass of HCl = 6.6724 * 36.5
mass of HCl = 243.5426 grams

Hope this helps :)

For the reaction between solid tetraphosphorus trisulfide and oxygen gas to form solid tetraphosphorus decoxide and sulfur dioxi

<h3>What is a tetraphosphorus decoxide?</h3>

Tetraphosphorus decoxide, () is a non-metal oxide that gives acidic property when dissolved in water.

The name phosphorus decoxide can be interpreted as 4 phosphorus (P) atoms (‘Tetra’), bonds with 10 oxygen (O) atoms (‘Dec’) in a molecule. besides that, it is also known as phosphorus pentoxide.

It can be prepared by heating pure phosphorus with oxygen in blast furnace.

+  →

It is used as a dehydrating agent due to its week van der Waals dispersion forces. Thus, owing to give exothermic reaction when dissolved in watermore precisely, it is a white crystalline anhydrous (without water molecule) solid.

In granular form it can be also used as desiccant as well.

Serhud [2]

Answer:

The water cycle, also known as the hydrologic cycle or the hydrological cycle, describes the continuous movement of water on, above and below the surface of the Earth. The mass of water on Earth remains fairly constant over time but the partitioning of the water into the major reservoirs of ice, fresh water, saline water and atmospheric water is variable depending on a wide range of climatic variables. The water moves from one reservoir to another, such as from river to ocean, or from the ocean to the atmosphere, by the physical processes of evaporation, condensation, precipitation, infiltration, surface runoff, and subsurface flow. In doing so, the water goes through different forms: liquid, solid (ice) and vapor. Hope this helps, mark as brainliest please!

A 200. gram sample of a salt solution contains 0.050 grams of NaCl. What is the concentration of the
wariber [46]

Answer:

2.5 × 10² ppm

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

  • Mass of NaCl: 0.050 g
  • Mass of the sample: 200. g

Step 2: Convert 0.050 g to μg

We will use the conversion factor 1 g = 10⁶ μg.

0.050 g × 10⁶ μg/1 g = 5.0 × 10⁴ μg

Step 3: Calculate the concentration of NaCl in ppm

The concentration of NaCl in ppm is equal to the micrograms of NaCl per gram of the sample.

5.0 × 10⁴ μg NaCl/200. g = 2.5 × 10² ppm
