Answer:
H⁺(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄ H₃O⁺(aq)
Explanation:
According to Brönsted-Lowry acid-base theory, an acid is a substance that donates H⁺. Let's consider the molecular equation showing that benzoic acid is a Brönsted-Lowry acid.
C₆H₅COOH(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄ C₆H₅COO⁻(aq) + H₃O⁺(aq)
The complete ionic equation includes all the ions and molecular species.
C₆H₅COO⁻(aq) + H⁺(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄ C₆H₅COO⁻(aq) + H₃O⁺(aq)
The net ionic equation includes only the ions that participate in the reaction and the molecular species.
H⁺(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄ H₃O⁺(aq)
Salt dissolved in water is a solution, therefore
- salt is not chemically bonded to water
- the ratio of salt to water may vary
- salt and water retain their own chemical properties
<u>Explanation:</u>
Salt (sodium chloride) is formed from positive sodium ions bonded to negative chloride ions. Water can dissolve salt because the positive part of water particles attracts the negative chloride ions of salt. The water particle effects to be charged negatively near the atom of oxygen and positively near the atom of hydrogen.
Since contrasts attract, the water molecules tend to join collectively like magnets. Water is called the universal solvent since it can solve more substances than any other liquid. The salt and water retain their unique chemical properties.
Jupiter revolves around the Sun in a predictable pattern because the force of gravity between Jupiter and the Sun maintains the orbit.
Answer:
Haploid - 13
Triploid - 39
Tetraploid - 52
Trisomic - 27
Monosomic - 25
Explanation:
A haploid organism has half the chromosome number of a diploid version, hence 26/2 = 13
A triploid organism has 3 sets of a haploid chromosomes, hence 13 x 3 = 39
A tetraploid is double of a diploid, 26 x 2 = 52
Trisomic organisms have one extra chromosome in addition to the normal diploid. Hence 26 + 1 = 27
Monosomic organism has one less chromosome than the normal diploid. Hence 26 - 1 = 25
