They are all <u>non-metal elements</u>.
Answer:
Option d. 7
Explanation:
A mixture of a strong base and a strong acid produce a neutral salt and water.
This is the reaction of neutralization:
HCl + NaOH → NaCl + H₂O
NaCl → Na⁺ + Cl⁻
Sodium chloride is neutral salt which does not give H⁻ neither OH⁻ to medium, that's why pH is neutral.
Both ions are derivated from a strong acid and base so they do not make hydrolisis. They are a conjugate pair of a weak acid and base. The reactions can not occur:
Cl⁻ + H₂O ← OH⁻ + HCl
Na⁺ + H₃O⁺ ← NaOH + H₂O
Answer:
2,3–dimethylpentane
Explanation:
To know which option is correct, we shall determine the name of the compound.
To obtain the name of the compound, do the following:
1. Determine the longest continuous carbon chain. This gives the parent name of the compound.
2. Identify the substituent group attached to the compound.
3. Locate the position of the substituent group by giving it the lowest possible count.
4. Combine the above to obtain the name of the compound.
Now, we shall determine the name of the compound as follow:
1. The longest continuous carbon chain is 5. Thus, the parent name of the compound is pentane.
2. The substituent group attached is methyl (–CH₃)
3. There are two methyl group attached to the compound. One is located at carbon 2 and the other at carbon 3.
4. Therefore, the name of the compound is:
2,3–dimethylpentane
None of the options are correct.
Answer: hydroxide ions
Explanation:
According to the Arrhenius concept, an acid is a substance that ionizes in the water to give hydronium ion or hydrogen ion and a bases is a substance that ionizes in the water to give hydroxide ion .
According to the Bronsted Lowry conjugate acid-base theory, an acid is defined as a substance which donates protons and a base is defined as a substance which accepts protons.
According to the Lewis concept, an acid is defined as a substance that accepts electron pairs and base is defined as a substance which donates electron pairs.
As KOH can give hydroxide ions on dissociation , it is considered as arrhenius base.

False, as oceans can act as carbon sinks along with forests.
