Which two compounds are classified as bases by the Brønsted-Lowry definition, but not by the Arrhenius definition, and why?

Chemistry

Answer:

b) Ammonia (NH3) and methane (CH4) because they contain hydrogen but do not dissociate to form hydrogen ions.

Explanation:

A substance will be classified as a base according to Arrhenius theory if it produces OH (-) hydroxide ions in water. Ammonia (NH3) is a basic substance, but it is not an Arrhenius base because it does not release hydroxide ions into solution, the same happens with methane (CH4),  where all four hydrogens are bound very tightly to the carbon and are not going anywhere.

C6H12O6 + 6 O2 --> 6 CO2 + 6 H2O + energy In the reaction listed above, 1 molecule of glucose reacts with 6 molecules of oxyg
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

  • Third choice:<em> energy present in the glucose and oxygen that is not needed for the formation of carbon dioxide and water is released to form energy/ATP.</em>

Explanation:

<u>1) Chemical equation (given):</u>

  • C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6 O₂ --> 6 CO₂ + 6 H₂O + energy

<u>2) Chemical potential energy:</u>

Each compound stores chemical potential energy.  This energy is stored in the chemical bonds.

Due to every substance has its own unique chemical potential energy, when a chemical reaction takes plase, yielding to the change of some substances, some energy is absorbed (when bonds are formed) and some energy is released (when bonds are broken).

<u>3) Conservation of energy:</u>

Then, if the sum of the bond energies of the final products is less than the sum of the bond energies of the reactants, the<em> law of conservation of energy</em> rules that the difference between the total energies of the products and reactants must be released to the surroundings.

That is what is happening in the given reaction:

  • C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6 O₂ --> 6 CO₂ + 6 H₂O + energy

The term energy in the product side means that energy is conserved because it is being released due to the the glucose and oxygen (reactant side) have more energy stored in their bonds than the energy needed for the formation of carbon dioxide and water, so that excess of energy is released to form energy/ATP.

<u>Summarizing:</u>

  • The energy on the product side added to the energy of carbon dioxide and water equals the energy of the glucose and oxygen and the final balance is:

  • ∑ Energy of the reactants = ∑energy of the products + released energy, supporting the law of conservation of energy.

Much like its household namesake, a molecular sieve utilizes differences in what property of substances to separate the componen
nlexa [21]

Answer: B . particle size

Explanation:

Let's begin by explaining that a molecular sieve is a device, whose composition allows the absorbtion of molecules that are small enough to pass through its pores, since it is made up of small pores of a precise and uniform size.

Thus, very small molecules manage to pass through the pores of the sieve, while large ones do not.

So, based on this premise, a molecular sieve separates the substances by their size.

Hence, the correct option is B.

PLS ANSWER FAST AHAH<br><br> distilled water is a pure substance <br> true or false ?
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

If you see distilled water, it's a pure substance. That means that there are only water molecules in the liquid. A mixture would be a glass of water with other things dissolved inside, like one of those powders you take if you get sick or Kool-Aid.

Which acid is the strongest? pH = 0.5 pH = 2.0 pH = 3.5 pH = 5
Eddi Din [679]
PH = 0.5 would be the most acidic because the lower it is on the pH scale the more acidic it is.
