Answer:

The given statement is false.

Explanation:

Hydrogen bromide when dissolves in water it gives hydronium ions and bromide ions.The hydronium ions is due to association of hydrogen ion with water molecule.This means that hydrogen bromide is an acid.

$HBr+H_2O\rightarrow H_3O^++Br^-$

Where as bases are those compounds which free hydroxide ion sin their aqueous solutions.

$BOH\rightarrow B^++OH^$

So, from this we concluded that HBr is not a base but an acid.

24g of methane were burned in an excess of air. What mass of water would be produced in the reaction assuming complete combustio

expeople1 [14]

Answer:

54g of water

Explanation:

Based on the reaction, 1 mole of methane produce 2 moles of water.

To solve this question we must find the molar mass of methane in order to find the moles of methane added. With the moles of methane and the chemical equation we can find the moles of water produced and its mass:

Molar mass CH₄:

1C = 12g/mol*1

4H = 1g/mol*4

12g/mol + 4g/mol = 16g/mol

Moles methane:

24g CH₄ * (1mol / 16g) = 1.5 moles methane

Moles water:

1.5moles CH₄ * (2mol H₂O / 1mol CH₄) = 3.0moles H₂O

Molar mass water:

2H = 1g/mol*2

1O = 16g/mol*1

2g/mol + 16g/mol = 18g/mol

Mass water:

3.0moles H₂O * (18g / mol) =

<h3>54g of water</h3>
