Answer:
See figure 1
Explanation:
If we want to find the acid and the Brønsted-Lowry base, we must remember the definition for each of these molecules:
-) Acid: hydrogen donor
-) Base: hydrogen acceptor
In the <u>caffeine structure,</u> we have several atoms of nitrogen. These nitrogen atoms have the ability to <u>accept</u> hydronium ions (
). Therefore the caffeine molecule will be the base since it can accept
If caffeine is the base, the water must be the acid. So, the water in this reaction donated a hydronium ion.
<u>Thus, caffeine is the base and water the acid. (See figure 1)</u>
Answer:
50.8 g
Explanation:
Equation of reaction.
From the given information, the number of moles of methane = mass/ molar mass
= 15.4 g / 16.04 g/mol
= 0.960 mol
number of moles of oxygen gas = 90.3 g / 32 g/ mol
= 2.82 mol
Since 1 mol of methane requires 2 moles of oxygen
Then 0.960 mol of methane will require = 0.960 mol × 2 = 1.92 mol of oxygen gas
Thus, methane serves as a limiting reagent.
2.82 mol oxygen gas will result in 2.82 moles of water
So, the theoretical yield of water = moles × molar mass
= 2.82 mol × 18.01528 g/mol
= 50.8 g
I'm not so sure but I would say Answer Choice B
