Answer:

By finding a chemical formula with H as a cation (positively charged ion), you can immediately know that the compound is an acid.

Explanation:

<u><em> By finding a chemical formula with H as a cation (positively charged ion), you can immediately know that the compound is an acid.</em></u>

According to the Arrhenius Acid-Base Theory, acids are those substances that dissolved in water divide by generating H⁺ together with an anion (ion with a negative charge). In an aqueous solution, the H⁺ protons react immediately with the water molecules to form H₃O⁺ hydronium ions.

According to this theory, those acids that dissociate completely are strong acids (releasing all protons H⁺), while acids that do not dissociate completely are weak acids (the percentage of dissociation is not 100%, releasing few protons H⁺)

An example is:

HCl + H₂O ⇒ Cl⁻ + H₃O⁺

This is an example of a strong acid.

Answer:

likely be the same

Explanation:

this is because we have one color that both atoms share (green). both sample 1 and sample 2 have green and another color. yet, since they share one color, they are likely similar

What is the relationship between atmospheric pressure and the density of gas particles in an area of increasing pressure? As air

Marina86 [1]

We need to know the relationship between atmospheric pressure and the density of gas particles in an area of increasing pressure.

The relationship is: As air pressure in an area increases, the density of the gas particles in that area increases.

For any gaseous substance, density of gas is directly proportional to pressure of gas.

This can be explained from idial gas edquation:

PV=nRT

PV= $\frac{w}{M}$ RT [where, w= mass of substance, M=molar mass of substance]

PM= $\frac{w}{V}$ RT

PM=dRT [where, d=density of thesubstance]

So, for a particular gaseous substance (whose molar mass is known), at particular temperature, pressure is directly related to density of gaseous substance.

Therefore, as air pressure in an area increases, the density of the gas particles in that area increases.

Answer:

I believe that it is the 2nd option.

Explanation:

My reasonings are because C4H10O has 7 isomers. In which 4 are alcohol and the other 3 are ether.

The first option is ethers, specifically ethoxyethane.

The third option is ethers, specifically 1-methoxypropane.

The fourth option is an alcohol, specifically 1- butanol.

Therefore, leads us to the 2nd option that it is NOT an isomer of C4H10O
