An acid-base reaction or a neutralization reaction is a <u>chemical reaction that occurs between an acid and a base producing a salt and water</u>. The acids and bases can be strong or weak depending on their degree of ionization in water.
Butyric acid is a weak acid and in water it is ionized in the following way, loosing a proton (H+):
HC4H7O2 (aq) ⇆ H+ (aq) + C4H7O2- (aq)
On the other hand, potassium hydroxide is a strong base, so it will be completely ionized in water:
KOH(aq) → K+(aq) + OH-(aq)
Then the <u>net acid-base reaction</u> between butyric acid and KOH is:
HC4H7O2 (aq) + OH- (aq) ⇆ H2O + C4H7O2- (aq)
It is valid to consider only the OH- produced from the ionization of KOH in water since, as mentioned, this molecule is completely ionized. Also, we do not include the K + in the net equation since it is a spectator ion, it does not undergo chemical changes.
Answer:
A) Devices that transfer kinetic energy have a source of power that is in motion
Kinetic energy is the energy in motion, as such, a device that transfers kinetic energy transfers the energy the power source has into other energy forms
B) Kerosene does not easily cold start like diesel which can burn after compression
C) The first law of thermodynamics states that energy is conserved and it can neither be created nor destroyed, but can be changed from one form to another.
Therefore, when energy is not available in a given location or body, it cannot be obtained from that body or location
