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>

Determine the formula weight of caffeine, C₈H₁₀N₄O₂. Provide an answer to two decimal places.
arlik [135]

Let's find

\\ \tt\hookrightarrow C_8H_10N_4O_2

  • We need accurate mass

\\ \tt\hookrightarrow 8(12.011)+10(1.007)+4(14.006)+2(16.0)

\\ \tt\hookrightarrow 96.088+10.07+56.024+32.0

\\ \tt\hookrightarrow 196.182g/mol

\\ \tt\hookrightarrow 196.18g/mol\:or 196.18u

If an atom has 11 protons and 13 neutrons what is it’s atomic number
Travka [436]

Answer:

the atomic number is 11 and element is Sodium (Na)

Explanation:

Number of Protons = Number of Electrons = 11

Number of Neutrons = 13

Here, the Number of Protons and Number of Electrons is 11

So,

the atomic number is <em><u>11</u></em> and element is <em><u>Sodium </u></em><em><u>(</u></em><em><u>Na) </u></em>
