Bitter taste (opposed to sour taste of acids)

Slimy, or soapy feel on fingers.

Many bases react with acids and precipitate salts.

Strong bases may react violently with acids. ...

Bases turn red litmus paper blue.

Base's physical characteristics:
1) Bitter in taste
2) Soapy feeling (in shampoo or body wash)
3) pH>7

Base's chemical characteristics:
1) BASW ( Base reacts with Acid to form Salt and Water)
2) Ability to turn moist red litmus paper blue due to its basic properties. (pH>7)
3) IMPORTANTLY is that it dissociate Into OH- ions or hydroxide ion when dissolved in water! (For alkali)

Alkali is SOLUBLE salt. Most bases are insoluble.

How much time would it take for 12000 atoms of nitrogen-13 (half-life is 7.13 s) to decay to 750 atoms?
Rainbow [258]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

28.52 seconds

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Initial number of atoms of Nitrogen 12,000 atoms

Half-life = 7.13

Number of atoms after decay = 750 atoms

We are required to determine the time taken for the decay.

Note that half life is the time taken for a radioactive isotope to decay to a half of its original amount.

Using the formula;

Remaining amount = Initial amount × (1/2)^n , where n is the number of half lives

In our case;

750 atoms = 12,000 atoms × (1/2)^n

0.0625 = 0.5^n

n = log 0.0625 ÷ log 0.5

n = 4

But, 1 half life =7.13 seconds

Therefore;

Time taken = 7.13 seconds × 4

                  = 28.52 seconds

Therefore, the time taken for 12,000 atoms of nitrogen to decay to 750 atoms is 28.52 seconds

Alkanes are hydrocarbons containing only single bonds. Acyclic alkanes have carbon atoms arranged in chains, whereas cycloalkane
sashaice [31]

Answer:

156 Hydrogen atoms

Explanation:

<u>Any acyclic alkane has a molecular formula that can be expressed as</u>:

CₙH₂ₙ₊₂

Where <em>n</em> is any integer and the number of carbon atoms. For example, Propane has 3 carbon atoms, this means it would have [2*3+2] 8 hydrogen atoms, resulting with a formula of C₃H₈.

An acyclic alkane with 77 carbon atoms would thus have:

2*77 + 2 = 156 hydrogen atoms
