Answer:

HCl is a Bronsted acid, dissociates partially or completely with the release of H+ dissociating as H+ and Cl-.

BF_3 is a Lewis acid because it has an incomplete octet and an empty 2p orbital, so it can accept a lone pair. It is clearly not a Bronsted acid as it does not have a H+ to release on dissociation.

CCl_3  Lewis base

-H Lewis base

CH_2O  Bronsted base

CH_3Cl  Bronsted acid

-OCH_3 Lewis base

NH_3 is a Lewis Base:, N has a a lone pair which it can donate to a Lewis acid like BF3.  

Explanation:

The Brønsted-Lowry theory describes acid-base interactions in terms of proton transfer between chemical species. A Brønsted-Lowry acid is any species that can donate a proton, H+, and a base is any species that can accept a proton. As for chemical structure, this means that any Brønsted-Lowry acid must contain a hydrogen that can be dissociated as H+. To accept a proton, a Brønsted-Lowry base must have at least one solitary pair of electrons to form a new bond with a proton.

Explain at least one observation you can make about the political borders and the language borders shown on the maps.
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

A boundary is a real or imaginary line that separates two things. In geography, boundaries separate different regions of the Earth.The most obvious type of boundary is a physical boundary. A physical boundary is a naturally occurring barrier between two areas. Rivers, mountain ranges, oceans, and deserts can all serve as physical boundaries. Many times, political boundaries between countries or states form along physical boundaries. For example, the boundary between France and Spain follows the peaks of the Pyrenees Mountains, while the Alps separate France from Italy.

The Strait of Gibraltar is the boundary between southwestern Europe and northwestern Africa. This narrow waterway between the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea is an important political, economic, and social boundary between the continents.

Rivers are common boundaries between nations, states, and smaller political units such as counties. The Rio Grande forms a large part of the boundary between Mexico and the United States. The Mississippi Riveris the defining boundary between many of the states it winds through, including Iowa and Illinois, Arkansas and Tennessee, and Louisiana and Mississippi.

Which of the following numerical expressions gives the number of particles in 2.0 g of Ne?
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

Number of particles = 2.0 g*(6.0 x 10^23 particles/mol) / 20.18 g/mol

Option C is correct

Explanation:

Step 1: Data give

Mass of Ne = 2.0 grams

Molar mass of neon = 20.18 g/mol

Number of Avogadro = 6.0 *10^23 /mol

Step 2: Calculate number of moles of neon

Moles Ne = Mass of ne / Molar mass of ne

Moles Ne = 2.0 / 20.18 g/mol

Moles Ne = 0.099 moles

Step 3: Calculate nulber of particles

Number of particles = 6.022*10^23 / mol * 0.099 moles = 5.96 *10^22

Number of particles = 6.022*10^23 * (2.0g/ 20.18g/mol)

Number of particles = 2.0 g*(6.0 x 10^23 particles/mol) / 20.18 g/mol

Option C is correct

Compare an oxygen particle to a water particle. In your answer , include describing how they are different and similar.
Naddik [55]

Answer:

An oxygen molecule consists of two oxygen (o2) atoms bound together and a water molecule consists of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom (h20). H20 has a higher evaporation temperature than oxygen therefore it stays a liquid at room temperature unlike oxygen. Both have oxygen atoms.
