Arrhenius Theory: according to Arrhenius, acid is one that can donate proton in an aqueous solution, while base is one that can donate hydroxide ion in an aqueous solution.
Bronsted-Lowry Theory: according to Bronsted Lowry, acid is one that can donate protons while base is one that can accept a proton.
1. In first, only C. NH3 can't give hydroxide ion, but can accept a proton so it is a Bronsted-Lowry Base but not an Arrhenius base.
2.In second, as the definition suggested, bronsted base is one that can accept protons and acid is one that can loose protons. so answer is D. Acids lose H+ and bases gain H+.
Potassium (K) is in Group I of the periodic table, and elements in the same column (period) are similar. Sodium (Na), or lithium (Li) are similar.
Answer:
At equilibrium, the concentration of the reactants will be greater than the concentration of the products. This does not depend on the initial concentrations of the reactants and products.
Explanation:
The value of Kc gives us an idea of the extent of the reaction. A big Kc (Kc > 1) means that in the equilibrium there are more products than reactants, and the opposite happens for a small Kc (Kc < 1). The equilibrium is reached no matter what the initial concentrations are.
The value of the equilibrium constant is relatively SMALL; therefore, the concentration of reactants will be GREATER THAN the concentration of products. This result is INDEPENDENT OF the initial concentration of the reactants and products.
Answer:
- The molarity of the student's sodium hydroxide solution is 0.0219 M
Explanation:
<u>1) Chemical reaction.</u>
a) Kind of reaction: neutralization
b) General form: acid + base → salt + water
c) Word equation:
- sodium hydroxide + oxalic acid → sodium oxalate + water
d) Chemical equation:
- NaOH + H₂C₂O₄ → Na₂C₂O₄ + H₂O
b) Balanced chemical equation:
- 2NaOH + H₂C₂O₄ → Na₂C₂O₄ + 2H₂O
<u>2) Mole ratio</u>
- 2mol Na OH : 1 mol H₂C₂O₄ :1 mol Na₂C₂O₄ : 2 mol H₂O
<u>3) Starting amount of oxalic acid</u>
- mass = 28 mg = 0.028 g
- molar mass = 90.03 g/mol
- Convert mass in grams to number of moles, n:
n = mass in grams / molar mass = 0.028 g / 90.03 g/mol = 0.000311 mol
<u>4) Titration</u>
- Volume of base: 28.4 mL = 0.0248 liter
- Concentration of base: x (unknwon)
- Number of moles of acid: 2.52 mol (calculated above)
- Proportion using the theoretical mole ratio (2mol Na OH : 1 mol H₂C₂O₄)

That means that there are 0.000622 moles of NaOH (solute)
<u>5) Molarity of NaOH solution</u>
- M = n / V (liter) = 0.000622 mol / 0.0284 liter = 0.0219 M
That is the correct number using <em>three signficant figures</em>, such as the starting data are reported.
