The correct answer is that a compound that donates protons.  

On the basis of Bronsted-Lowry concept, a compound which accepts proton is considered as a base and the compound which donates protons is considered to be an acid. The strong acids and bases get ionized completely in aqueous solution, while the weak acids and weak bases get ionize partially.  

The conjugate base is illustrated as the species that is produced after the loss of proton of acid, while the conjugate acid refers to the species that is produced after the gain of protons.  

Thus, the Bronsted-Lowry definition of an acid is a compound that donates protons.

Which of the following statements is generally TRUE?
Vesnalui [34]

The correct answer is option d, that is, the solubility of a solid is highly dependent on temperature.  

Solubility refers to the maximum amount of a component, which will get dissolved in a given concentration of solvent at a particular temperature. The temperature influences the solubility of both gases and solids. The temperature has a direct influence on solubility.  

For most of the ionic solids, enhancing the temperature elevates how briskly the solution can be formed. With the increase in temperature, the movement of the solid particles takes place briskly that enhances the chances that they will associate with the majority of the solvent particles. This leads to enhancing the rate at which the solution takes place.

A certain gas is present in a 15.0 LL cylinder at 2.0 atmatm pressure. If the pressure is increased to 4.0 atmatm the volume of
Helga [31]

Explanation:

According to Boyle's law,  pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to its volume at constant temperature and moles.

Mathematically,       P = \frac{k}{V}

where,     k = proportionality constant

Also, formula for initial pressure and volume is as follows.

              P_{i} = \frac{k_{i}}{V_{i}}

or,           k_{i} = P_{i} \times V_{i}

                          = 2 atm \times 15 L

                          = 30 atm L

Now, we will calculate the value of k_{f} as follows.

             k_{f} = P_{f} \times V_{f}

                         = 4 atm \times 7.5 L

                         = 30 atm L

Hence, as k_{i} = k_{f} this means that it signifies that gas obeys boyle's law.
