Answer: Positive charge

Explanation:

An atom consists of electron (negatively charged), Proton (Positively charged) and neutron (no charge).

The proton (+) and the neutron (no charge) are in the nucleus of the atom. this makes the resulting charge of the nucleus positive while electron (-) is outside the nucleus.

What is the Bronsted acid of H2PO4- + OH-. ---- HPO42- + H2O?

RoseWind [281]

Answer:

The bronsted- Lowry acid is H₂PO₄⁻

Explanation:

Bronsted-Lowry acid donates a proton (H⁺)

H₂PO₄⁻ + OH⁻ → HPO₄²⁻ + H₂O

In the reaction above, H₂PO₄⁻ is donating the proton to OH⁻ resulting in H₂O and the deprotonated species. This makes it a bronsted-Lowry acid.

Correct Answer: <em>Option 1) 2-pentene</em>

Reason:
Following are the IUPAC rules for naming the compound
1) Select the longest carbon chain. In present case longest carbon chain has 5 carbon atom. Hence, it is a pentane derivative.
2) In case of alkene, replace 'e' of alkane by 'ene'
3) Give lowest number to function group. In present case, it is double bond.

Applying above rules, the IUPAC name of compound is 2-pentene
