Answer:

Arrhenius Acid:

According to Arrhenius concept, Acids are proton donors.

Since H₂SO₄ have a proton (H⁺ ion) and it can donate it to be made a sulphate ion, So it is an Arrhenius acid.

See the following reaction =>

H₂SO₄ + H₂O => HSO₄ + H₃O⁺

Arrhenius Base:

An Arrhenius base is a a proton acceptor.

KOH accepts the proton to to made to KOH₂ and a proton acceptor.

See the following reaction =>

KOH + H₂o => KOH₂ + OH⁻

A crow flies 100 meters east in 5 minutes. What is the crow’s velocity?

torisob [31]

Answer: 20 m/min east

Explanation: The speed is distance divided by time

distance between start-point and end-point = 100 meters

time to cover the distance = 5 minutes

100 m ÷ 5 min = 20 m/min east

you have to add east since velocity is the measure of speed and direction and your answer needs to include the direction

What can you say about the strength of the intermolecular forces in neon and argon based on the critical points of Ne and Ar? (c

algol13

Explanation:

Since, it is given that critical temperature of Argon is 150.9 K and critical pressure of Argon is 48.0 atm.

It is known that gas phase of neon occurs at 50 K. As the boiling point of Ar is more than the boiling point of neon which means that there is strong intermolecular force of attraction between argon molecules as compared to neon molecules.

This is also because argon is larger in size. As a result, induced dipole-induced dipole forces leads to more strength in Ar as compared to Ne.

Calculate the approximate volume of a 0.500 mol sample of gas at 15°C and a pressure of 1.10 atm.

Marianna [84]

T=15+273=298k
P=1.1atm
n=0.5mol

Apply ideal gas equation

PV=nRT
V=nRT/P
V=0.5(8.314)(298)/1.1
V=1126.16mL
V=1.12L
