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.

If  a piece of platinum is placed in acid, it will not react.

<h3>What are the correct pairing of the given terms?</h3>

The correct pairing of the given terms are obtained from the given options as follows:

Atoms of elements contains three sub-atomic particles which are protons, neutrons, and electrons.

Energy is the ability to do work.

According to the law of conservation of energy, Energy can be neither created nor destroyed.

Water is a liquid which freezes at 0°C.

Therefore, Water freezes at 0°C.

Platinum is a metal which is less reactive than hydrogen, Hence, it cannot displace hydrogen from acids.

Hence, if a piece of platinum is placed in acid, it will not react.

In conclusion, the correct pairing gives the correct description of the properties of the given terms.
