Given the equation representing a reversible reaction:which formula represents the h+ acceptor in the forward reaction?

AnnyKZ [126]

Question is incomplete. Complete question is attached below
.............................................................................................................................

Answer: Option A: HCO3-(aq.)

Reason:
From the reaction, it can be seen that following reaction occurs in forward direct

HCO3-(aq) + H2O(l) → H2CO3(aq) + OH-(aq)

In above forward reaction, HCO3- accepts proton from H2O to generate H2CO3. Thus, according to Lowry and Bronsted theory of acid-base, HCO3- is a base, while H2CO3 is a conjugate acid.

Salt in crude oil must be removed before the oil undergoes processing in a refinery. The

irina1246 [14]

Answer:

$\large \boxed{0.64 \, \%}$

Explanation:

Assume you are using 1 L of water.

Then you are washing 4 L of salty oil.

1. Calculate the mass of the salty oil

Assume the oil has a density of 0.86 g/mL.

$\text{Mass of oil} = \text{4000 mL} \times \dfrac{\text{0.86 g}}{\text{1 mL}} = \text{3440 g}$

2. Calculate the mass of salt in the salty oil

$\text{Mass of salt} = \text{3440 g} \times \dfrac{\text{5 g salt}}{\text{100 g oil}} = \text{172 g salt}$

3. Calculate the mass of salt in the spent water

$\text{Mass of salt} = \text{1000 g water} \times \dfrac{\text{15 g salt}}{\text{100 g water}} = \text{150 g salt}$

4. Mass of salt remaining in washed oil

Mass = 172 g - 150 g = 22 g

5. Concentration of salt in washed oil

$\text{Concentration} = \dfrac{\text{22 g}}{\text{3440 g}} \times 100 \, \% = \mathbf{0.64 \, \%}\\\\\text{The concentration of salt in the washed oil is $\large \boxed{\mathbf{0.64 \, \%}}$}$
