Answer:
seven on the ph scale is the neutral point
Explanation:
The range goes from 0 - 14, with 7 being neutral. pHs of less than 7 indicate acidity, whereas a pH of greater than 7 indicates a base. pH is really a measure of the relative amount of free hydrogen and hydroxyl ions in the water.
Water behaves as a base in this reaction.
The Bronsted-Lowry definition is applied, because the reaction involves the transfer of H+ from one reactant to the other.
A Bronsted-Lowry base is defined as a substance that accepts a proton.
Because water gains a proton to form H3O+ in this particular reaction, it acts as a base
Carbon is the only element that can form so many different compounds because each carbon atom can form four chemical bonds to other atoms, and because the carbon atom is just the right, small size to fit in comfortably as parts of very large molecules.
Answer:
Natural gas combustion equation:
CH4 + O2 ==> CO2 + 2 H2O + HEAT
Octane or oil combustion equation:
2C8H18 + 25 O2 ===> 16CO2 + 18 H2O.
If these fuels were replaced by self-sustaining energy sources, the contamination of the environment would be less, since their combustion generates toxic compounds that damage the ozone layer, promoting the greenhouse effect, increasing the Earth's temperature and also promoting the increase in the passage of ultraviolet radiation.
Explanation:
The combustion reactions are exothermic, and irreversible, they can be complete and incomplete combustions.
They always consist of oxygen as a reagent and water and carbon dioxide as a product (complete), in the case of the incomplete the difference is that the products vary and there may be waste or chemical compounds that failed to burn.
