Explain why the following chemical equation represents a Lewis acid-base reaction. H+ + NH3 —>NH4+
lozanna [386]

Answer:

Due to an electron-pair acceptor and donor.

Explanations:

<em><u>Lewis acid</u></em> can be defined as an electron-pair acceptor. An example is Hydrogen ion(H+). This is because it is a proton and it distributes positive charge which means that it accepts electrons(negative charge).

<em><u>Lewis base</u></em> can be defined as an electron-pair donor. This is because it donates electrons to be accepted by the proton. An example is ammonia(NH3).

How does a vase on a table overcome gravity? What would happen if you moved the vase off the table
NeTakaya

Answer:

A vase on a table overcomes gravity because of the upwards force of the table against it, which is stronger than the force of gravity. If you were to move the vase off the table it would no longer have anything stopping gravity from breaking it.

9. What coefficient of H+ balances the atoms in this half-reaction?<br> H+ + MnO₂ → Mn²+ + H₂O
algol13

Answer:4

Explanation:To balance the equation you need to make the number of each element equivalent in both sides.

To start add a 2 in front of the MnO2 which balances the Mn.

Then balance the oxygen by adding a 4 in front of H20.

The H then needs a 8 as it’s coefficient.
