Answer:

Explanation:

According to Arrhenius Acid-Base Theory, acids are those substances that dissolved in water divide generating H⁺ together with an anion (ion with negative charge). In an aqueous solution, H⁺ protons immediately react with water molecules to form H₃O⁺ hydronium ions. A base, on the contrary, according to this theory, is a substance that liberates OH⁻ ions in aqueous solution.

This theory is valid only in aqueous medium.

You know: NH₃(g) + H₂O(l) → NH₄⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq)

In this case, the water dissociates with the formation of hydrogen ions, H⁺, which NH₃ accepts to form the NH₄⁺ ion. So the water acts as an acid.

On the other hand, in reaction:

NH₄⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq) → NH₃(g) + H₂O(l)

NH₄⁺ dissociates with the formation of hydrogen ions, H⁺, which water accepts to form the H₃O⁺ ion. So NH₄⁺ acts as an acid.

For reaction: NH₃(g<span>) + </span>H₂O(l<span>) → </span>NH₄⁺(aq<span>) + </span>OH⁻(aq), water (H₂O) is donor of proton (H⁺) and ammonia (NH₃) is acceptor of proton (base).
For reaction: NH₄⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq) → NH₃(g) + H₂O(l) , NH₄⁺ is acid (donor of proton (H⁺)) and hydroxy anion (OH⁻) is base (acceptor of proton).
According to  Bronsted-Lowry theory acid are donor of protons and bases are acceptors of protons (the hydrogen cation or H⁺<span>).</span>

The energy required to ionize boron is 801 kJ/mol. You may want to reference (Pages 93 - 98) Section 2.5 while completing this p
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

The frequency is  f =  2,01 * 10^{15} \  Hz

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The energy required to ionize boron is E_b  =  801 KJ/mol

Generally the ionization energy of boron pre atom is mathematically represented as

     E_a  =  \frac{E_b}{N_A}

Here  N_A is the Avogadro's constant with value N_A  =  6.022*10^{23}

So

      E_a  =  \frac{801}{6.022*10^{23}}

=>     E_a  =  1.330 *10^{-18} \  J/atom

Generally the energy required to liberate one electron from an atom is equivalent to the ionization energy per atom and this mathematically represented as

       E =  hf  =  E_a

=>     hf  =  E_a

Here h is the Planks constant with value h = 6.626 *10^{-34}

So

       f =  \frac{1.330 *10^{-18}}{ 6.626 *10^{-34}}

=>      f =  2,01 * 10^{15} \  Hz

How do you figure out the molar mass of an element
Mumz [18]
The molar mass is the mass of all atoms in a molecule we first obtain the atomic weights from the individual elements in a periodic table then count the number of atoms and multiply it by the individual atomic masses
