A Lewis acid-base reaction occurs when a base donates a pair of electrons to an acid. ... A Brønsted-Lowry acid such as HCl is an acid-base adduct according to the Lewis concept, and proton transfer occurs because a more stable acid-base adduct is formed.

Example: Water (H2O) has two nonbonding pairs of electrons, so it donates one pair to the carbocation. As a result, one bond is formed and shared between carbon and oxygen. Water acts as a Lewis base because it is the electron pair donor in this reaction.

What are the two basic ways in which ions form from atoms?
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

An ion is an atom or group of atoms that has an electric charge. When an atom loses an electron, it loses a negative charge and becomes a positive ion. When an atom gains an electron, it gains a negative charge and becomes a negative ion. a sodium ion forms when a sodium atom loses one electron and becomes positively charged. a chloride ion forms when a chlorine atom gains one electron and becomes negatively charged.

Hope this helps,

Mature elephants consume an average of 600 pounds of food per day. If an elephant
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

\large \boxed{\text{4 600 000 kg or 4600 Mg}}

Explanation:

1. Calculate the adult life

If the elephant is an adult from its 10th birthday until the day before its 56th birthday, its  

Adult life = 55 - 10 + 1 = 46 yr

2. Convert years to days

\text{Adult life} = \text{46 yr} \times \dfrac{\text{365.25 da}}{\text{1 yr}} = \text{16 800 da}

3. Convert days to pounds of feed

\text{Feed} = \text{16 800 da} \times \dfrac{\text{600 lb}}{\text{1 da}} = 1.01 \times 10^{7} \text{ lb}

4. Convert pounds to kilograms and megagrams

\text{Feed} =1.01 \times 10^{7} \text{ lb} \times \dfrac{\text{1 kg}}{\text{2.20 lb}} =\textbf{4 600 000 kg} = \textbf{4600 Mg}\\\\\text{The elephant will eat $\large \boxed{\textbf{4 600 000 kg or 4600 Mg}}$ of food.}

Note: The answer can have only two significant figures because that is all you gave for age of the elephant.

2. A cell with few energy needs would most
sattari [20]

A Cell with few energy needs would most likely contain a small number of Mitochondria.

  • All cells require energy to function, but cells typically have significant energy needs that can only be met by the mitochondria, the cell's powerhouse.
  • They transform glucose into ATP, a chemical with a huge energy storage capacity.
  • Muscles have a large number of mitochondria, allowing them to react rapidly and powerfully to the body's ongoing need for energy.
  • Macromolecules, defunct cell components, and microbes are all digested by lysosomes.
  • Vacuoles are typically tiny and aid in the sequestration of waste.
  • The ribosome, an intercellular structure consisting of both RNA and protein, is where a cell produces new proteins.

Therefore out of all these cell organelles, the cell has fewer mitochondria for less energy need.
