Answer:

The correct option is: D.act as a Lewis base in water.

Explanation:    

Ammonia is a hydride of nitrogen with the chemical formula NH₃. It is a colorless gas with a characteristic pungent smell. According to the VSEPR theory, it has a trigonal pyramidal structure.  

In water, ammonia acts as a Lewis base due to the presence of lone pair on the nitrogen atom. Lewis bases are electron pair or lone pair donors.

likoan [24]

Answer:

The smell of a chocolate is from the presence of volatile compounds present in the chocolate bar which at room temperature readily changes phase from solid to liquid to vapor or gas

Explanation:

There are nearly 600 identified compounds present in a chocolate bar and out of these, there are volatile components which gives the chocolate bar its distinctive aroma.

These volatile chocolate contents readily change phase from solid to vapor, with very short duration liquid phase.

For example, 3 methylbutanal, vanillin, and several organic compounds which are known to be readily volatile.

Find the grams in 1.26*10^-4 mol of HC2H3O2
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

0.00757 grams

Explanation:

Find the molar mass of the compound: which is 60.05.

The molar mass is basically just the sum of all the atomic masses of each of the elements.

Then multiply the molar mass by the number of moles in the compound, which is 1.26 x 10^-4 moles.

Your answer should be 0.00757 grams.

A neutral atom of Cl-37 has
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

17 protons, 20 neutrons, and 17 electrons​.

Explanation:

A periodic table can be defined as the standard arrangement of chemical elements by atomic number, electronic configuration and chemical properties in a tabular form.

Generally, a proper representation of the mass number and atomic number of chemical elements is key and very important in chemistry.

Furthermore, as a rule, it should be noted that the mass number (nucleon number) is always larger than the atomic number(number of proton).

The mass number of this neutral atom of Cl-37 is 37 and we know that the atomic number (number of protons) of chlorine is 17. Also, the atomic number of an element is equal to the number of its electrons.

A neutral atom of Cl-37 has 17 protons, 20 neutrons, and 17 electrons.

Hence, a neutral atom of Cl-37 can be identified based on its number of protons because it represent its atomic number, which is what is used to differentiate an atom of an element from the atom of another chemical element.
