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>

The combined gas law states that
seropon [69]

Answer:

Option B. PV = nRT.

Explanation:

From the above,

C = PV / T. (1)

But, C is directly proportional to n, where R is the gas constant i.e

C & n

C = nR

Substituting the value of C into equation (1), we have:

C = PV / T

nR = PV / T

Cross multiply to express in linear form

nRT = PV

Therefore,

PV = nRT

Calculate the concentration of clo2− at equilibrium if the initial concentration of hclo2 is 2. 25×10^−2 m.
jek_recluse [69]

The concentration of ClO₂⁻ at equilibrium if the initial concentration of  HClO₂ is 0.0654.

<h3>What is concentration?</h3>

The concentration of any substance is the quantity of that substance in per square of the space or container.

The reaction is

HClO₂ + H₂O <=> H₃O⁺ + ClO₂⁻

The pH is 0.454 M

Ka = [H₃O⁺][ClO₂⁻ ] / [HClO₂]

2. 25 × 10⁻² m = [x][x] / 0.454-x]

2 + 0.011 - 0.004994 = 0

solve the quadratic equation

x = 0.0654 = [H3O+] = [ClO2-]

pH = -log (H3O+)

pH = -log(0.0654)

pH = 1.2

equilibrium concentrations of

[HClO2] = 0.454 -x = 0.454 -0.0654 = 0.3886 M

[ClO2- ] = x = 0.0654

Thus, the equilibrium concentrations  is 0.0654.

Complete the following sentences:
denpristay [2]

Answer:

Explanation:

a) In an exothermic reaction, the energy transferred to the surroundings from forming new bonds is ___more____ than the energy needed to break existing bonds.  

b) In an endothermic reaction, the energy transferred to the surroundings from forming new bonds is ___less____ than the energy needed to break existing bonds.  

c) The energy change of an exothermic reaction has a _____negative_______ sign.  

d) The energy change of an endothermic reaction has a ____positive________ sign.

The energy changes occur during the bonds formation and bonds breaking.

There are two types of reaction endothermic and exothermic reaction.

Endothermic reactions:

The type of reactions in which energy is absorbed are called endothermic reactions.

In this type of reaction energy needed to break the bond are higher than the energy released during bond formation.

For example:

C + H₂O   →  CO  + H₂

ΔH = +131 kj/mol

it can be written as,

C +  H₂O  + 131 kj/mol  →  CO  + H₂

Exothermic reaction:

The type of reactions in which energy is released are called exothermic reactions.

In this type of reaction energy needed to break the bonds are less than the energy released during the bond formation.

For example:

Chemical equation:

C + O₂   →  CO₂

ΔH = -393 Kj/mol

it can be written as,

C + O₂   →  CO₂ + 393 Kj/mol
