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.

List at least two chemical reactions that resulted in a yellow, orange, or red precipitate. For these reactions, list the possib

Katarina [22]

1) 0.2M ferric nitrate is added gradually to 1M sodium hydroxide. In result, a red precipitate appears. The precipitate is ferric hydroxide.
2) 0.2M potassium chromate is added gradually to 0.05M lead acetate. in result, a yellow precipitate appears. The precipitate is called potassium acetate.
The common between the two is that the colors originated from one of the reactants.

The average atomic mass of Eu is 151.96 amu. There are only two naturally occurring isotopes of europium, Eu with a mass of 151.

earnstyle [38]

Answer:

The percentage abundance of Eu isotopes are 52 % and 48 % .

Explanation:

The formula for the calculation of the average atomic mass is:

$Average\ atomic\ mass=(\frac {\%\ of\ the\ first\ isotope}{100}\times {Mass\ of\ the\ first\ isotope})+(\frac {\%\ of\ the\ second\ isotope}{100}\times {Mass\ of\ the\ second\ isotope})$
