Answer:

The correct answer is 'a base is a proton acceptor .'

Explanation:

According to the Bronsted-Lowry conjugate acid-base theory:

An acid is defined as a substance which looses or donates protons and forms conjugate base.

Acid → $H^+$ + Conjugate base

A base is defined as a substance which accepts protons and forms conjugate acid.

Base + $H^+$ → Conjugate acid

According to the question the correct answer is 'a base is a proton acceptor.

Answer:

The products are carbon dioxide and water

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Combustion = a reaction in which a substance reacts with oxygen gas, releasing energy in the form of light and heat. Combustion reactions must involve O2 as one reactant.

Step 2: The complete combustion of C3H7OH:

For the combustion of 1-propanol, we need O2.

The products of this combustion are CO2 and H2O.

C3H7OH + O2→ CO2 + H2O

On the left side we have 3x C (in c3H7OH), on the right side we have 1x C (in CO2). To balance the amount of C, we have to multiply CO2 on the right side by 3

C3H7OH + O2→ 3CO2 + H2O

On the left side we have 8x H (in C3H7OH) and 2x on the right side (in H2O). To balance the amount of H, we have to multiply H2O, on the right side by 4.

C3H7OH + O2→ 3CO2 + 4H2O

On the left side we have 3x O (1x in C3H7OH and 2x in O2), on the right side we have 10x O (6x in CO2 and 4x in H2O).

To balance the amount of O on both sides, we have to multiply C3H7OH by 2, multiply O2 by 9. Then we have to multiply 3CO2 by 2 and 4H2O by 2. Now the equation is balanced.

2C3H7OH + 9O2→ 6CO2 + 8H2O

For 2 moles propanol, we need 9 moles of O2 to produce 6 moles of CO2 and 8 moles Of H2O

The products are carbon dioxide and water

To determine the ammonia concentration in a sample of lake water, three samples are prepared. In sample A, 10.0 mL of lake water

Masteriza [31]

Answer:Sample Absorbance (625 nm)

A 0.536

B 0.783

C 0.045

Therefore, I will use these data to solve your question. If you have other absorbances values, just follow my steps and plug in different numbers.

First, we see 1 mole of NH3 gives 1 mole product.

In B moles of NH3 = moles of NH3 in A + (5.5 x10^-4 x2.5/1000) = 1.375 x10^6 + mA

( mA = moles of NH3 in A) vol of B = 25 = vol of A

now A = el C = eC ( since l = 1cm)

Because, n net absorbance due to complex blank absorbance must be removed.

Here A(A) = 0.536 - 0.045 = 0.491 , A(B) = 0.783 - 0.045 = 0.738

(you can plug in different numbers in this step)

A2/A1 = C2/C1 , A(B)/A(A) = (1.375x10^-6 +mA)/(mA) = 0.738/0.491

So, mA = 2.733 x 10^-6 = moles of NH3 in A (Lake water)

Hence [NH3] water ( 2.733 x10^-6 ) x 1000/25 = 1.093 x 10^-4 M

Lake water vol = 10 ml out of 25,

Concentration of ammonia in lake water = 2.733 x10^-6 x 1000/10 = 2.733 x 10^-4 M

Then, A = 0.491 = e x 1 x 1.093 x10^-4

e = 4492 M-1cm-1

How many mL of alcohol are in 240 mL of 95.0% alcohol solution?

tino4ka555 [31]

To work it out, you divide 240 by 100 to work out 1% of it, then multiply that by 95 to work out 95% of it. So
(240/100) * 95 = 228mL
