Answer: The conjugate acid of $HCO_3^-$ is $H_2CO_3$

Explanation:

According to the Bronsted-Lowry conjugate acid-base theory:

An acid is defined as a substance which looses donates protons and thus forming conjugate base.
A base is defined as a substance which accepts protons and thus forming conjugate acid.

To form a conjugate acid of $HCO_3^-$ , this compound will accept one proton to form $H_2CO_3$

The chemical equation for the formation of conjugate acid follows:

$HCO_3^-+H^+\rightarrow H_2CO_3$

The conjugate acid formed is named as carbonic acid.

Hence, the conjugate acid of $HCO_3^-$ is $H_2CO_3$

spayn [35]

Answer:

C₅ H₁₂ O

Explanation:

44 g of CO₂ contains 12 g of C

30.2 g of CO₂ will contain 12 x 30.2 / 44 = 8.236 g of C .

18 g of H₂O contains 2 g of hydrogen

14.8 g of H₂0 will contain 1.644 g of H .

total compound = 12.1 out of which 8.236 g is C and 1.644 g is H , rest will be O

gram of O = 2.22

moles of C, O, H in the given compound = 8.236 / 12 , 2.22 / 16 , 1.644 / 1

= .6863 , .13875 , 1.644

ratio of their moles = 4.946 : 1 : 11.84

rounding off to digits

ratio = 5 : 1 : 12

empirical formula = C₅ H₁₂ O

Which statement is true for a solution when its concentration of hydroxide ions increases? It becomes more acidic. It becomes le

makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

Its pH value increases.

Explanation:

pH is the measure of alkalinity or acidity of a compound.

pH = - log [H+]

and pH + pOH = 14

where pOH is the measure of basicity of a solution, given by -log[OH-]

As a solution gets more basic that is higher [OH-], the pH increases, and on the other hand, as the pH of a solution decreases by one pH unit, the concentration of H+ increases by ten times.

What is the molar mass of (NH), CO? 138g 788 968 1448

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

The molar mass of $(NH_{4})_{2}CO_{3}$ is 96.8 g/mol

Explanation:

The given molecular formula - $(NH_{4})_{2}CO_{3}$

Individual molar masses of each element in the compound is as follows.

Molar mass of nitrogen - 14.01 g/mol

Molar mass of of hydrogen = 1.008g/mol

Molar mass of carbon = 12.01 g/mol

Molar mass of oxygen =16.00 g/mol

Molar mass of $(NH_{4})_{2}CO_{3}$ is

$2\times[1(14.01)+4(1.008)]+1(12.01)+3(16.00)= 96.8g/mol$

Therefore,The molar mass of $(NH_{4})_{2}CO_{3}$ is 96.8 g/mol
