H2C2O4, also written as (COOH)2, is Ethandioic acid, and, as evident by the name, is an acid, and not a base
Ca(OH)2 and KOH, Calcium Hydroxide and Potassium Hydroxide, respectively, are bases when dissolved in water, as they are able to release OH- ions.
Hydrogen Iodide, HI, when dissolved in water, is a strong acid. So, that is also not a base.

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Ca(OH)_2\text{ and }KOH

<u>Explanation:</u>

Acids are defined as the chemical species that produces hydrogen ions on dissolving in water.

Bases are defined as the chemical species that produces hydroxide ions on dissolving in water.

We are given:

Chemical compounds having chemical formulas CH_3COOH,Ca(OH)_2,KOH\text{ and }HI

CH_3COOH is an organic acid and it produces CH_3COO^-\text{ and }H^+ ions

Ca(OH)_2 is a base and it produces Ca^{2+}\text{ and }OH^- ions

KOH is a base and it produces K^{+}\text{ and }OH^- ions

HI is an acid because it produces H^+\text{ and }I^- ions

Hence, the correct answer is Ca(OH)_2\text{ and }KOH

What is capillary action? Describe how capillary action shown by water is useful for plants and animals on Earth.
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

Look Below

Explanation:

Capillary action is adhesion of water. In plants, capillary action allows water to move from the roots to leaves. In animals, capillary action plays a role in respiration where oxygen-poor blood oxygenates in the capillaries.

Answer:

The molecular weight for the compound is 60.1 g/mol

Explanation:

We need to determine the molality of solute to find out the molar mass of it.

We apply the colligative property of freezing point depression:

ΔT = Kf . m . i

If the compound was also found to be nonvolatile and a non-electrolyte,

i = 1.

Freezing T° of pure solvent - Freezing T° of solution = Kf . m

0°C - (-2.05°C) = 1.86°C/m . m

2.05°C / 1.86m/°C = m → 1.10 mol/kg

To determine the moles of solute we used, we can multiply molality by the mass of solvent in kg → 202.1 g . 1kg/1000g = 0.2021 kg

1.10 mol/kg . 0.2021kg = 0.223 moles

Molar mass→ g/mol → 13.39 g / 0.223 mol = 60.1 g/mol
