Answer:

b. a proton donor.

Explanation:

An acid can be defined as a substance that produces hydrogen ions or H+ protons when dissolved in water, according to Arrhenius

HCl  -> H^{+} + Cl^{-}

It, also, can be defined as a molecule or ion which gives or donates a H+ protons when dissolved in water, according to Bronsted y Lowry

H^{+} + H_{2}O -> H_{3}O^{+}

And, finally, according to Lewis, an acid can be defined as any compound that can accept a pair of electrons.

When NH3(g) reacts with N2O(g) to form N2(g) and H2O(g), 105 kcal of energy are evolved for each mole of NH3(g) that reacts. Wri
Ganezh [65]

Answer : The balanced chemical equation is,

2NH_3(g)+3N_2O(g)\rightarrow 4N_2(g)+3H_2O(g)+210kcal

Explanation :

Balanced chemical equation : It is defined as the number of atoms of individual elements present on the reactant side must be equal to the number of atoms of individual elements present on product side.

The given unbalanced chemical reaction is,

NH_3(g)+N_2O(g)\rightarrow N_2(g)+H_2O(g)+105kcal

This chemical reaction is an unbalanced reaction because in this reaction, the number of atoms of individual elements are not balanced.

In order to balanced the chemical reaction, the coefficient 2 is put before the NH_3, the coefficient 3 is put before the N_2O\text{ and }H_2O and the coefficient 4 is put before the N_2.

The energy evolved in this reaction = 105Kcal\times 2=210Kcal

Thus, the balanced chemical reaction will be,

2NH_3(g)+3N_2O(g)\rightarrow 4N_2(g)+3H_2O(g)+210kcal

How many grams of O₂ are required to react completely with 14.6 g of Na to form sodium oxide, Na₂O?
Bad White [126]

The balanced chemical reaction is :

O_2 + 4Na \ -> \ 2Na_2O

Number of moles of Na, n = \dfrac{14.6}{23} = 0.635 \  mol .

Now, from balance chemical reaction we can see that 1 mole of oxygen reacts with 4 moles of sodium.

So, number of moles of oxygen are :

n = \dfrac{0.635}{4}\  mole

So, amount of oxygen required is :

m = \dfrac{0.635 \times 32}{4}\  gm\\\\m = 5.08 \ gm

Therefore, 5.08 gram of oxygen will react with 14.6 gram of sodium.

pH indicator. A dye that is an acid and that appears as different colors in its protonated and deprotonated forms can be used as
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

pH = 7.8

Explanation:

The Henderson-Hasselbalch equation may be used to solve the problem:

pH = pKa + log([A⁻] / [HA])

The solution of concentration 0.001 M is a formal concentration, which means that it is the sum of the concentrations of the different forms of the acid. In order to find the concentration of the deprotonated form, the following equation is used:

[HA] + [A⁻] = 0.001 M

[A⁻] = 0.001 M - 0.0002 M = 0.0008 M

The values can then be substituted into the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation:

pH = 7.2 + log(0.0008M/0.0002M) = 7.8
