Which substance is an Arrhenius base? (1) CH3OH (3) LiOH (2) CH3Cl (4) LiCl

1 answer:

7 0

According to Arrhenius Theory of acids and bases, an Arrhenius base produces OH-.

Among the four options, (3) LiOH is the correct one because it can separate into Li+ and OH- when being put in water.

Hope this helps~

Selenium (Se) has 30 protons and 20 neutrons in each atom, therefore its atomic

allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

30, 50

Explanation:

Hello,

In this since an element's atomic number is equal to the number of protons in its atom, we can infer that selenium's atomic number is 30. Moreover, due to the fact the the neutrons are equal to the atomic mass minus the atomic number or the number of protons, by knowing the number of neutrons we compute the atomic as follows:

$neutrons=mass-protons\\\\mass=neutrons+protons\\\\mass=30+20\\\\mass=50a.m.u$

Thus, answer is 30, 50.

Best regards.

The characteristic odor of pineapple is due to ethyl butyrate, a compound containing carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Combustion of

gavmur [86]

Answer: The empirical formula for the given compound is $C_3H_6O$

Explanation:

The chemical equation for the combustion of hydrocarbon having carbon, hydrogen and oxygen follows:

$C_xH_yO_z+O_2\rightarrow CO_2+H_2O$

where, 'x', 'y' and 'z' are the subscripts of Carbon, hydrogen and oxygen respectively.

We are given:

Conversion factor: 1 g = 1000 mg

Mass of $CO_2=6.32mg=0.00632g$

Mass of $H_2O=2.58g=0.00258g$

Mass of compound = 2.78 mg = 0.00278 g

We know that:

Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44 g/mol

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

For calculating the mass of carbon:

In 44g of carbon dioxide, 12 g of carbon is contained.

So, in 0.00632 g of carbon dioxide, $\frac{12}{44}\times 0.00632=0.00172g$ of carbon will be contained.

For calculating the mass of hydrogen:

In 18g of water, 2 g of hydrogen is contained.

So, in 0.00258 g of water, $\frac{2}{18}\times 0.00258=0.000286g$ of hydrogen will be contained.

Mass of oxygen in the compound = (0.00278) - (0.00172 + 0.000286) = 0.000774 g

To formulate the empirical formula, we need to follow some steps:

Step 1: Converting the given masses into moles.

Moles of Carbon = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Carbon}}{\text{Molar mass of Carbon}}=\frac{0.00172g}{12g/mole}=1.43\times 10^{-4}moles$

Moles of Hydrogen = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Hydrogen}}{\text{Molar mass of Hydrogen}}=\frac{0.000286g}{1g/mole}=2.86\times 10^{-4}moles$

Moles of Oxygen = $\frac{\text{Given mass of oxygen}}{\text{Molar mass of oxygen}}=\frac{0.000774g}{16g/mole}=4.83\times 10^{-5}moles$

Step 2: Calculating the mole ratio of the given elements.

For the mole ratio, we divide each value of the moles by the smallest number of moles calculated which is $4.83\times 10^{-5}mol$

For Carbon = $\frac{1.43\times 10^{-4}}{4.83\times 10^{-5}}=2.96\approx 3$

For Hydrogen = $\frac{2.86\times 10^{-4}}{4.83\times 10^{-5}}=5.92\approx 6$

For Oxygen = $\frac{4.83\times 10^{-5}}{4.83\times 10^{-5}}=1$

Step 3: Taking the mole ratio as their subscripts.

The ratio of C : H : O = 3 : 6 : 1

Hence, the empirical formula for the given compound is $C_3H_{6}O_1=C_3H_6O$

Which represents the balanced nuclear equation for the beta plus decay of C-11?

slavikrds [6]

Nuclear reaction: ¹¹C → ¹¹B + e⁺(positron) + ve(electron neutrino).
Beta decay is radioactive decay in which a beta ray and a neutrino are emitted from an atomic nucleus.
There are two types of beta decay: beta minus and beta plus. In beta minus decay, neutron is converted to a proton and an electron and an electron antineutrino and in beta plus decay, a proton is converted to a neutron and positron and an electron neutrino, so mass number does not change.

1/ Which graph illustrates constant speed and velocity

Maksim231197 [3]

Velocity is said to be constant if its magnitude as well direction at any instant is remains the same. In D, if you draw a line parallel to y-axis at any time t, you can see that velocity is same. Hence, D is the correct graph.

The kinetic energy of gaseous molecules is greater than that of liquid molecules. Therefore, in gas, kinetic energy overcomes the force of attraction between molecules. In short, in gas phase, particles move at high speed and hence they have less force of attraction. In case of liquid phase, particles are close enough as a result there is much more force of attraction compared to gaseous molecules. In liquid state, kinetic energy cannot overcome force of attraction therefore, liquid molecules slow down.

Therefore, B is the correct answer.
