Can the pH scale be utilized for all acids (Arrhenius, Bronsted-Lowery, and Lewis)? Give examples of substances from each defini
GuDViN [60]

Explanation:

Before proceeding to answering the questions, let us go over some definitions.

pH scale: The pH scale measures how acidic or basic a substance is. The pH scale ranges from 0 to 14. A pH of 7 is neutral. A pH less than 7 is acidic.

pH stands for Potential of Hydrogen. It refers to the hydrogen ion concentration in a solution.

The keywords being; Hydrogen Ion concentration.

A Bronsted-Lowry acid is a chemical species that donates one or more hydrogen ions in a reaction.

A Lewis acid is  any substance that can accept a pair of nonbonding electrons. It is an electron pair acceptor.

An Arrhenius acid is a substance that dissociates in water to form hydrogen ions or protons.

Based on the definitions of given above, it is obseved that both Bronsted lowry and arrhenius acids deals with hydrogen ions. Hence both of this acids can be measured using the pH scale. The  lewis acid on the other hand do not necessarily contain hydrogen ions, hence the pH scale cannot be utilized for it.

Examples includes;

Arrhenius acid; Nitric Acid – HNO3 etc

Lewis acid; boron trifluoride (BF3) and aluminum fluoride (AlF3) etc

Bronsted lowry acid; HCl etc

Explain how temperature and amount of precipitation can affect the type of plants and animals found in the grassland biome?
MArishka [77]
Temperature grasslands have hot summers and cold winters. Summer temperatures can be well over 100 degrees Fahrenheit, while winter temperatures can be as low as -40 degrees Fahrenheit. They typically have between 10 and 35 inches of precipitation a year, much of it occurring in the late spring and early summer. As climate conditions shift geographically so will the distributions of many plants and animals. The relatively flat terrain of grasslands increases vulnerability to climate change impacts, because habitats and species must migrate long distances to compensate for temperature shift.

In the halogenation reaction shown, ethane and chlorine gas yield chloroethane and hydrogen chloride. How do the properties of c
Monica [59]

Answer:

Chloroethane is denser and has a higher boiling point

Explanation:

The density of a gas depends directly on the molar mass of the gas. This means that as the molar mass increases, density increases and vice versa.

Having said that, we can easily see that the molar mass of chloroethane (64.51 g/mol) is greater than the molar mass of ethane (30.07 g/mol). Hence we expect that chloroethane is denser than ethane as established above.

In the absence of other strong intermolecular forces, the higher the molecular mass of a substance the greater its boiling point. Thus the boiling point of chloroethane is higher than that of Ethane since they both have weak Van der Waals forces holding their molecules together in the gaseous state.
