HNO3 is a Bronsted-Lowry acid. What will this substance form when it donates a proton?

Andreas93 [3]

The HNO3 is considered to be a Bronsted - Lowry acid, when this substance 'HNO3', will donate a proton, then it will form another substance. It will form two substances when the proton is donated in the water molecule. The two substances that will be formed is a nitrate iron and a hydronium ion.

Drag each item to indicate whether it is related to Aristotle's or Ptolemy's model of the solar system, or to both. Some items m

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

Aristotle's Model :

geocentric

planets fixed on nested spheres

Ptolemy's model:

geocentric

planets fixed on epicycles

accurately predicted the positions of the planets

Explanation:

Let's begin by the fact both models are geocentric and make a brief explanation of them:

Aristotle's Model :

Aristotle built his model based on observations and philosophical assumptions, not on measurements or calculations, then he mistakenly thought the Earth was the center of the universe.

So, according to this model, the universe was spherical and finite, with the Earth immobile at its center, composed of the four fundamental elements (made up of spherical layers): ground, water, air and fire; and the Sun along with the fixed planets in their respective concentric spheres (also called nested spheres) revolving around the Earth.

Ptolemy's model:

Ptolemy's model of the universe was also geocentric, placing the Earth motionless in the center of the known universe and was the accepted model for a long time during the Middle Ages.

In this sense, ccording to Ptolemy's model of the universe our planet remains stationary while the other planets, the Moon and the Sun describe complicated orbits around it (called epicycles).

However, this model predicted with an acceptable accuracy for that time the motion of the known planets, until Copernicus appeared with the revolutionary Heliocentric model.

Why must the ph ammonia buffer solution be stored and dispensed in the fume exhaust hood?

Vadim26 [7]

On the other hand ammonia is a very dangerous chemical which has a pungent smell and effect the eyes of the user. Thus it kept always in the fume exhaust hood for storing and dispensing function.

The pH of ammonia buffer contains ammonium hydroxide (NH₄OH) and a salt of ammonia with a strong acid like (HCl) which produces, ammonium chloride (NH₄Cl) mixture. The evaporation rate of ammonia is so high at room temperature thus on opening of the buffer solution the ammonia get evaporated very fast and the concentration of ammonia decreases which affect the pH of the buffer solution.

Thus the reason to put ammonia buffer in fume hood is explained.
