Answer:   A. a substance that is alkaline

Explanation: Base is defined as the substance which is alkaline in nature.

It is the species which can accept a proton because of the lone pair of electrons or vacant orbitals present on them.

It is that species which donates its OH- ions to the solution (Arrhenius Base)

It is a substance which has a high pH value as low pH values belongs the the acidic species.

A species which can donate its H+ ion is known as Acidic species.

The correct answer is A
its not D because a low pH is a acid
its not C because a base releases OH- ions
its not B because it donates and releases OH- ions

Find the weight of HNO_3 present in 20ml, 0.30 N
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

mass of HNO₃ = 0.378 g

Explanation:

Normality = Molarity * number of equivalents

Molarity = Normality/number of equivalents

normality of HNO₃ = 0.30 N, Volume = 20 mL

HNO₃ ionizes in the following way:

HNO₃(aq) ----> H⁺ + NO₃⁻

Therefore, number of equivalents for HNO₃ is 1

molarity of HNO₃ = 0.30/1 =0.30 mol/dm³

Using the formula, molarity = number of moles/volume in liters

number of moles = molarity * volume

Number of moles of HNO₃ = 0.30 mol/dm³ * 20ml * 1 dm³ /1000 mL

number of moles = 0.006 moles

From the formula, mass = number of moles * molar mass

molar mass of HNO₃ = 63.0 g/mol

mass = 0.006 * 63

mass of HNO₃ = 0.378 g

Why is it suggested you use weighing paper or a watch glass instead of filter paper on which to allow a sample to dry? please gi
snow_lady [41]
The suggestion is to prevent a puddle of the liquid present in the sample from forming or from it leaking on to the surface on which it is placed. For example, if precipitates of a solid are removed from water and then placed on filter paper to dry, the water will soak into the filter paper and then leak on to the counter on which it is placed. If this precipitate were placed in a watch glass or weighing paper, the water would only evaporate and would not contaminate the sample.
