Which of the following lists describes characteristics of a base? (3 points)

Chemistry
1 answer:
mel-nik [20]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

slippery, high pH, and caustic (last option)

Explanation:

when we say base we should think soap. soap is slippery. Bases give OH- ion. when OH- is combined with H+ ion it will create water which raises the pH. Since base can dissolve fats, ex: using dish liquid to cut grease on pots and pans etc.. they are caustic. Biologically they can disrupt the cell memebrane making it caustic to cell tissue.

What is the vapor pressure of an aqueous solution made up of 60.0g of urea (CH4N2O) in 180g of water? the vapor pressure of wate
djyliett [7]
To get the answer you use the Law of Raoult.


Raoult's law states that the decrease of the vapor pressure of a liquid is proportional to the molar fraction of the solute.


ΔP = Pa * Xa


Here Pa = 0.038 atm


And Xa = N a / (Na + Nb), where Na is number of moles of A and Nb is number of moles of b


Na = mass of urea / molar mass of urea =  60 g / (molar mass of CH4N2O)


molar mass of CH4N2O = 12 g/mol + 4*1g/mol + 2*14 g/mol + 16 g/mol = 60 g/mol


Na = 60 g / 60 g/mol = 1 mol


Nb = mass of water / molar mass of water = 180g / 18g/mol = 10 mol


Xa = 1 mol / (10 mol + 1 mol) = 1/11 =0.09091


ΔP = Pb * Xa = 0.038 atm * 0.09091 =  0.0035 atm


Then, the final vapor pressure of water is Pb - ΔP = 0.038atm - 0.0035atm = 0.035 atm.


 Answer: 0.035 atm

In what way do the atoms in the same row of the Periodic Table increase from left to right?
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

As you move from left to right, the nucleus gains protons. This increases the positive charge of the nucleus and its attractive force on the electrons. At the same time, electrons are added to the atoms as you move from left to right across a period.

When cyclohexene is treated with KMnO4, H2O, the syn-1,2-diol is produced. What reaction occurs when benzene is similarly treate
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

No reaction is observed

Explanation:

The benzene ring is aromatic. Being an aromatic ring, the benzene ring is remarkably stable to all reactions that destroy the aromatic ring.

Alkenes are oxidized to alkanols in the presence of KMnO4 but this reaction does not occur with benzene. However, substituted benzenes having hydrogen atoms attached to the substituent carbon atom can be oxidized to the corresponding carboxylic acid.
