Aside from biological functions like breathing, the best use of air is for energy. In order to burn anything, it must react with oxygen. You can credit the energy produced by fossil fuels as much to oxygen in the air as you could to the fuel itself!

You might argue that air is a resource in pneumatic pressure systems as well, using the air as a medium for storing energy as pressure.

Air is also “mined” for trace elements through air separation. For the most part, it is nitrogen that is extracted, because it accounts for 78% of gases in the atmosphere. Trace elements like noble gases, such as argon, are also extracted in this way.

When an arrhenius base is placed in h20 the only negative ion present in the solution is?
melamori03 [73]
According to Arrhenius theory of acid and base, Acids are those substances which when dissolved in water produces protons, while, Bases are those substances which when dissolved in water produces Hydroxyl Ions.

Example of Arrhenius Bases:

                         
NaOH ₍s₎ → Na⁺ ₍aq₎  +  ⁻OH ₍aq₎

                         LiOH ₍s₎ → Li⁺ ₍aq₎  +   ⁻OH ₍aq₎
Result:
           The only negative ion produced in water when Arrhenius Base is dissolved is ⁻OH (Hydroxyl Ion).

Ionic or covalent C2H5OH
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

Covalent  

Explanation:

A molecule of C₂H₅OH has C-C, C-H, C-O, and O-H bonds.

A bond between A and B will be ionic if the difference between their electronegativities (ΔEN) is greater than 1.6.

\begin{array}{ccc}\textbf{Bond} & \textbf{$\Delta$EN} & \textbf{Polarity}\\\text{C-C} & 2.55 - 2.55 = 0.00 & \text{Nonpolar covalent}\\\text{C-H} & 2.55 - 2.20 = 0.35 & \text{Nonpolar covalent}\\\text{C-O} & 3.44 - 2.55 = 0.89 & \text{Polar covalent}\\\text{O-H} & 3.44 - 2.20 = 1.24 & \text{Polar covalent}\\\end{array}

No bond has a large enough ΔEN to be ionic.

C₂H₅OH is a covalent molecule.
