Answer : The correct option is, sour taste

Explanation :

Acid : It is a substance that has ability of donating proton or hydrogen ion or hydronium ion, H^+.

The properties of an acid are :

  • Acids are sour in taste.
  • The texture of an acid solution is sticky.
  • It changes the color of the litmus paper to red.
  • It react with a metal to give compound and hydrogen gas.
  • The pH of an acid is less than 7.

Base : It is a substance that has ability of donating hydroxide ion, OH^-.

The properties of an base are :

  • Base are bitter in taste.
  • The texture of an base solution is slippery.
  • It changes the color of the litmus paper to blue.
  • It does not react with a metal.
  • The pH of a base is more than 7.

As per question, the pH is 5 that means the solution is acidic in nature and follow the properties of an acid. So, the pH = 5 has the sour taste characteristic. While the other options are the properties of a base.

Hence, the correct option is, sour taste

The progress of the reaction:
Blababa [14]

Answer:

The Equilibrium constant K is far greater than 1; K>>1

Explanation:

The equilibrium constant, K, for any given reaction at equilibrium, is defined as the ratio of the concentration of the products raised to their stoichiometric coefficients divided by the concentration of reactants raised to their stoichiometric coefficients.

It tells us more about how how bigger or smaller the concentration of products is to that of the reactants when a reaction attains equilibrium. From the given data, as the color of the reactant mixture (Br2 is reddish-brown, and H2 is colourless) fades, more of the colorless product (HBr is colorless) is being formed as the reaction approaches equilibrium. This indicates yhat the concentration of products becomes relatively higher than that of the reactants as the reaction progresses towards equilibrium, the equilibrium constant K, must be greater than 1 therefore.

To name the compound written as CuCl2, you would write:
vovangra [49]

Answer: option C. Copper (II) chloride

Explanation:

To name CuCl2, we need to know the oxidation state of Cu in the compound as chlorine always have oxidation on —1 in all its compound. The oxidation state of Cu can be calculated as follows:

Cu + 2Cl = 0 (since the compound has no charge)

Cl = —1

Cu + 2(—1) = 0

Cu —2 = 0

Collect like terms

Cu = 0 +2

Cu = +2

Therefore, the oxidation state of Cu in CuCl2 is +2.

The name of the compound will be copper(ii) chloride, since cupper has oxidation state +2 in the compound.
