Explanation:

Water behaves as a base in this reaction.

The Bronsted-Lowry definition is applied, because the reaction involves the transfer of H+ from one reactant to the other.

A Bronsted-Lowry base is defined as a substance that accepts a proton.

Because water gains a proton to form H3O+ in this particular reaction, it acts as a base

What is the empirical formula of a molecule containing 65.5% carbon, 5.5% hydrogen, and 29.0% oxygen
natta225 [31]
Carbon(C):
number of moles= mass/molar mass(Mr)
=65.5/12
=5.5 moles

Hydrogen(H):
number of moles=mass/molar mass (Mr)
=5.5/1
=5.5 moles

Oxygen (O):
number of moles = mass/molar mass (Mr)
=29.0/16
=1.8 moles

EF= lowest number of moles over each of the elements

So,
C= 5.5/1.8 = 3
H= 5.5/1.8 = 3
O= 1.8/1.8 = 1

Therefore Emperical formula= C3H3O

Write the general chemical formula for an acid, and discuss what each component of the formula represents.
saul85 [17]
The general formula of an acid is HX where H+ acts as the cation while X can be a halogen (Cl-, Fl-, Br-, etc) and acts as the anion. There are also cases where X is an ion like SO42-, which brings two atoms of H in the formula. Strong acids dissociate completely while weak acids do not.
