On a small time scale, glass is in a solid state. When you look at a window, it appears solid.

However, it has been observed that over a very long period, glass starts to act like a liquid.

It can thus be characterized by two different states depending on the time scale considered.<span />

I think the other answer is incorrect. Glass being a liquid is a misconception, from when glassmaking was imperfect and windows were thicker at the bottom of the pane than the middle. But that was from when the glass was MADE, after being heated and put into a liquid form.

The Ka of carbonic acid is 4.3 x 10-7.

Answer:

poor hydrogen-ion donor

Explanation:

Acid dissociation constant constant chemistry is the equilibrium constant of the dissociation reaction of an acid, it is denoted by Ka. This equilibrium constant is a measure of the strength of an acid in a solution.

Note these as a rule of thumb:

When Ka is large, the dissociation of the acid is favored.

When Ka is small, the acid does not dissociate to a large extent.

Hence, a Ka of 4.3 x 10-7 shows a weak acid. A weak acid is a poor hydrogen ion donor because it does not dissociate to a large extent in solution.
