Answer:

H₃PO₄ is an acid because donates the proton to fenolate.

Fenolate is the base because accepts the proton from the acid.

Explanation:

Bronsted theory mentioned that acid is the one that donates a proton to another compound and base is the one that receives it.

H₃PO₄   +   C₆H₅O⁻    ⇄      H₂PO₄⁻      +       C₆H₅OH

acid              base              conj. base            conj. acid

H₃PO₄ is an acid because donates the proton to fenolate.

Fenolate is the base because accepts the proton from the acid.

If we follow the dissociation, the diacid phosphate can donate two more protons, it is still a Bronsted acid, but it can act as an acid or a base. This is called amphoteric.

Limitations of Lewis dot structure
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

Limitations of Lewis structures: resonance structures and violations of the octet rule (odd electron, hypovalent and hypervalent molecules). (1) Shapes of simple molecules with “central” atoms. (2) Configuration: the position of atoms in space about a central atom. The VSEPR theory of configuration.

A solution is prepared by dissolving 15.0 g of NH3 in 250.0 g of water. The density of the resulting solution is 0.974 g/mL. The
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

[NH₃]  → 3.24 M  

Explanation:

Our solute: Ammonia

Our solvent: Water

Solution's mass = Mass of solute + Mass of solvent

Solution's mass = 15 g + 250 g = 265g

We use density to determine, the volume.

D = mass /volume → Volume = m / D →  265 g /0.974 g/mL = 272.07 mL.

We convert the mL to L → 272.07 mL . 1L /1000mL = 0.27207 L

To determine molarity we need the moles of solute in 1 L of solution.

Moles of solute are: 15g / 17g/mol = 0.882 moles

[NH₃] = 0.882mol /0.27207 L → 3.24 M

How does reactants in photosynthesis combine to make atoms molecules
balu736 [363]

Answer:

hope this helps

Explanation:

Photosynthesis

Photosynthesis

Photosynthesis is a process used by plants and other organisms to convert light energy into chemical energy that, through cellular respiration, can later be released to fuel the organism's metabolic activities. This chemical energy is stored in carbohydrate molecules, such as sugars, which are synthesized from carbon dioxide and water – hence the name photosynthesis, from the Greek phos, "light", and sunthesis "putting together". In most cases, oxygen is also released as a waste product. Most plants, algae, and cyanobacteria perform photosynthesis; such organisms are called photoautotrophs. Photosynthesis is largely responsible for producing and maintaining the oxygen content of the Earth's atmosphere, and supplies most of the energy necessary for life on Earth.
