In the Bronsted-Lowry Theory of acids and bases, an acid is this.

Physics
1 answer:
madreJ [45]4 years ago
6 0

Answer: An acid is a substance that donates a proton and produces a conjugate base.

Explanation:

According to Bronsted-Lowry theory, an acid is a substance that donates a proton and produces a conjugate base while a base is a molecule or ion which accepts the proton.

An example of Bronsted-Lowry acid and base is Ethanoic acid, CH3COOH and hydroxide ion, OH- respectively as shown in the reaction below

CH3COOH(aq) + OH-(aq) <---> CH3COO-(aq) + H2O(l)

Thus, ethanoic acid acts as an acid by donating a proton to the hydroxide ion which accepts it, thus producing ethanoate ion, CH3COO- as a conjugate base.

Carole is very tired and makes coffee. why would newton say that she must use her hand to put up the cup
Marat540 [252]
<span>newton say that she must use her hand to put up the cup because the work is equal to force times it distance, that is in the same direction of the force applied. if carole used her hand to put up the cup, then he is not applying any work because the displacement is not in the same direction of the force</span>

The index of refraction of a type of glass is 1.50, and the index of refraction of water is 1.33. If light enters water from thi
Damm [24]

Answer:

Option C - the angle of refraction is greater than the angle of incidence

Explanation:

Snell's law of refraction states that;

n1 sinθ1 = n2 sinθ2

Where;

n1 is refractive index of incidence medium

θ1 is angle of incidence

n2 is Refractive index of refraction medium

θ2 is angle of refraction

For This question, n1 = 1.5 and n2 = 1.33

Thus;

1.5 sinθ1 = 1.33 sinθ2

Rearranging, we have;

sinθ1/sinθ2 = 1.33/1.5

We know from trigonometry, that sin 0 = 0 and sin 90 = 1. So, as θ approaches 0°, the value of sinθ decreases while as it approaches 90°,the value of sinθ increases.

Thus, by inspection, we can say that the value of the denominator is higher than the numerator.

Thus, θ2 is greater than θ1

So, the angle of refraction is greater than the angle of incidence
