Which of the following statements is not true regarding acids? (3 points)

Chemistry

horsena [70]3 years ago

Answer:

Lewis acid is a substance that donates a lone-pair of electrons.

Explanation:

What is said in the statement corresponds to a Lewis base, not an acid. For example, NH3 is a Lewis base, since it is capable of donating its pair of electrons. Trimethylborane (Me3B) is a Lewis acid, since it is capable of accepting a solitary pair.

Answer : The incorrect statement is, Lewis acid is a substance that donates a lone-pair of electrons.

Explanation :

According to the Arrhenius theory, an acid is a substance that ionizes in the water to give hydronium ion (H_3O^+) or hydrogen ion (H^+) and a bases is a substance that ionizes in the water to give hydroxide ion (OH^-).

According to the Bronsted Lowry concept, Bronsted Lowry-acid is a substance that donates one or more hydrogen ion in a reaction and Bronsted Lowry-base is a substance that accepts one or more hydrogen ion in a reaction.

According to the Lewis acid-base theory, an acid is a substance that accepts pairs of electrons and the a base is a substance that donates pairs of electrons.

The pH of an acid is always less than 7.

Hence, the incorrect statement is, Lewis acid is a substance that donates a lone-pair of electrons.

Molarity of a salt water solution of "0.47" moles of NaCl dissolved in a volume of 0.25L
asambeis [7]

Answer:

1.88 M

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Mole of NaCl = 0.47 mole

Volume of solution = 0.25L

Molarity =?

Molarity is defined as the mole of solute per unit litre of the solution. It can represented mathematically as:

Molarity = mole /Volume

Using the above formula, the molarity of the salt water solution can be obtained as follow:

Molarity = 0.47/0.25

Molarity = 1.88 M

Briefly describe the roles of heat, pressure, and water in the origin of magma. ( in your own word)
andrezito [222]

The semifluid or hot fluid substance within or below the crust of the Earth from which lava and other igneous rock are produced by cooling is known as magma.  

The temperature and pressure elevate with depth, finally reaching to a level wherein the strongest rock is melted, transforming into magma. When the magma comes into contact with water, it instantly gets transformed into a rock, that is, the outside solidifies briskly, and the inside of it gets cold.

Nuclear fission is the splitting of atomic nuclei, while nuclear fusion is the combining of atomic nuclei.
Simora [160]
Nuclear reactions are those that involve the nucleus of an atom. Nuclear fission involves the splitting of an atomic nucleus and the formation of two distinct atomic species. Nuclear fusion is indeed the combining of two atomic nuclei in order to form a single atomic species. Therefore the answer to the question is true.

How many places are there for electrons in the third shell of an atom?
Dafna1 [17]
Each shell can contain only a fixed number of electrons: The first shell can hold up to two electrons, the second shell can hold up to eight (2 + 6) electrons, the third shell can hold up to18 (2 + 6 + 10) and so on. The general formula is that the nth shell can in principle hold up to 2(n2) electrons.
