Chemistry

Explanation:

According to Arrhenius concept:

A base is defined as a substance which donates hydroxide ions (OH^-).When they are dissolved water it gives out hydroxide ions.

BOH(aq)\rightarrow B^+(aq)+OH^-(aq)

For example sodium hydroxide pellets when dissolved in water gives sodium ions and hydroxide ions.

NaOH\rightarrow Na^+(aq)+OH^-(aq)

Properties of Arrhenius bases:

  • They slippery in touch
  • They are bitter in taste if ingested.
  • They turn litmus paper blue.
  • They react with acid to undergo neutralization reaction in which water and salt is formed.
  • They pH value is always greater than  7.

An acid is defined as a substance which donates hydronium ions (H_3O^+) .When they are dissolved water it gives out hydronium ion.

AH(aq)\rightarrow A^-(aq)+H_3O^+(aq)

Answer:

In chemistry, a base is a substance that is slippery to the touch and has a pH greater than 7. If you were to eat a base (which you should not do) it would have bitter to the taste. A perfect example of a base is soap - when you touch soap, it feels slippery. Have you ever accidentally tasted soap? You may notice that it has a bitter taste.

These are some physical characteristics of bases, but what about the theory behind the behavior of bases when they are in a solution? There are many theories from different scientists that describe a base. One Swedish scientist, named Svante Arrhenius, came up with the theory of a base in 1884. Svante Arrhenius' definition of a base is what we now refer to as an Arrhenius base.

An Arrhenius base is a substance that, when dissolved in an aqueous solution, increases the concentration of hydroxide, or OH-, ions in the solution. An aqueous solution is a solution that has water present in it. Let's imagine dissolving a basic substance in water. According to Svante Arrhenius, when a base dissolves in an aqueous solution, it dissociates into ions and releases hydroxide ions.

NaOH dissociates into sodium, Na+, and hydroxide, OH-, ions. Because the hydroxide ions are released in the aqueous solution, the hydroxide concentration increases; therefore, NaOH is an Arrhenius base.

Sodium hydroxide, when dissolved in an aqueous solution, releases hydroxide ions in the solution.

The water above the arrow means that the NaOH is added or combined with water and dissociates into sodium, a positive cation, and one or more negative hydroxide anions.

The solubility of oxygen gas in water at 40 ∘c is 1.0 mmol/l of solution. What is this concentration in units of mole fraction?
juin [17]

The formula for mole fraction is:

mole fraction of solute = \frac{number of moles of solute}{total number of moles of solution}    -(1)

The solubility of oxygen gas = 1.0 mmol/L  (given)

1.0 mmol/L means 1.0 mmol are present in 1 L.

Converting mmol to mol:

1.00 mmol\times \frac{1 mol}{1000 mmol} = 0.001 mol

So, moles of oxygen = 0.001 mol

For moles of water:

1 L of water = 1000 mL of water

Since, the density of water is 1.0 g/mL.

Density = \frac{mass}{volume}

Mass = 1.0 g/ml\times 1000 mL = 1000 g

So, the mass of water is 1000 g.

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol.

Number of moles of water = \frac{1000 g}{18 g/mol} = 55.55 mol

Substituting the values in formula (1):

mole fraction = \frac{0.001}{55.55+0.001}

mole fraction = 1.8\times 10^{-5}

Hence, the mole fraction is 1.8\times 10^{-5}.

How do different bridge designs react to stong winds
anastassius [24]

Depending on how the design is, The bridge will sway, bounce, or move in some way. If the bridge was too stiff the winds would destroy the bridge and cause it to crumble and fall.

Hope that answer works for you! :)

Are alchemy and chemistry the same
Anit [1.1K]

Are alchemy and chemistry the same: No

<u>Explanation:</u>

Alchemy and chemistry differ from each other. Their main difference lies in the concepts that they are based on. Alchemy has the base of viewing the reality of nature supernaturally. Chemistry has a base of viewing the reality in a natural way.

Protoscience is the name given for Alchemy. This is because that alchemy usually focuses on the traditional things like procedures and  terminologies. Chemistry always focuses on the matter and their transformations. The matter and its transformations are dealt with chemistry.
