What is base in chemistry

Chemistry
1 answer:
Lostsunrise [7]3 years ago
7 0

Hello!

In chemistry, compounds can have one of two properties. Acidic and Basic.

To determine whether a compound/solution/test subject is basic or acidic, you need to look for the pH level. pH is a unit scale for your understanding.

1-6 on the pH scale means an item is acidic.

7 on the pH scale tends to be what we consider even ground as it matches the closest to the human bodies pH level.

Anything greater than 7 is considered basic.

Examples of basic solutions and compounds are many bleaches, milk of magnesia, ammonia, even limewater!

I hope this gives you an answer to your question.

Explain how a neutral paper fragment can be attracted to a charged rod
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

The particles in the neutral paper can shift, causing the paper to become polarized and attracted to the rod.

Explanation:

The neutral paper has an even distribution of its electrons throughout the paper. If a charged rod is brought near the neutral paper, this can cause the electrons in the paper to shift. If the rod is negative, the electrons will be repelled from the rod and cause the molecules in the paper to have a slight positive charge on the part of the paper closest to the rod. If the rod is positive, the electrons will be attracted to the rod and cause a slight negative charge on the side of the paper closest to the rod.

Low energy waves have (3 points)
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

Low energy waves have <u>a long wavelength.</u>

Explanation:

Energy of wave is directly related to  the frequency while it is inversely proportional to the wavelength.

If any wave have high energy it will have high frequency and smaller wavelength.

If the wave have lower energy then it will have lower frequency and higher wavelength.

Mathematical relationship:

E = h. f

E = h. c/λ

E= energy

h = planck's constant

f = frequency

c = speed of light

λ = wavelength

anygoal [31]

Answer:

The correct answer is D. How gravity interacts with planets

Explanation:

Einstein's theory of relativity formulated in 1915 introduces the following concepts:

- Formula E = mc2 (relationship between energy, mass, speed of light)

- How nuclear energy is produced

-After seeing a solar eclipse, gravity is interpreted geometrically (which is an effect of distortion)

-Relative time

List a few of the physical properties of buckyball
stepladder [879]

Buckyball or buckminster fullerene is the third allotrope of carbon. It contains 60 carbons which are arranged in the five and six membered rings. Buckyball is the cluster of carbon atoms which are arranged in spherical shape and it forms a hollow cage.

The physical properties are:

Buckyball is made up of huge number of molecules but giant covalent bond is not exist.

The forces between the individual buckyballs are weak intermolecular forces.

The substances which are made up of buckyballs has low melting point in comparison to other allotropes of carbon as low energy is required to overcome theses intermolecular forces.

The substances which are made up of buckyballs is slippery in nature.

The solutions of buckminster fullerene are deep purple in color and upon evaporation brown residue is obtained.

Buckyball is soft in comparison to graphite and when it is compressed to less than 70 percent of its volume then, it converts into superhard form of diamond.
