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

Physics
1 answer:
madreJ [45]3 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.

Two rigid tanks of equal size and shape are filled with different gases. The tank on the left contains oxygen, and the tank on t
fredd [130]

Answer:

The number of oxygen molecules in the left container greater than the number of hydrogen molecules in the right container.

Explanation:

Given:

Molar mass of oxygen, M_O=32

Molar mass of hydrogen, M_H=2

We know ideal gas law as:

PV=nRT

where:

P = pressure of the gas

V = volume of the gas

n= no. of moles of the gas molecules

R = universal gs constant

T = temperature of the gas

∵n=\frac{m}{M}

where:

m = mass of gas in grams

M = molecular mass of the gas

∴Eq. (1) can be written as:

PV=\frac{m}{M}.RT

P=\frac{m}{V}.\frac{RT}{M}

        as: \frac{m}{V}=\rho\ (\rm density)

So,

P=\rho.\frac{RT}{M}

Now, according to given we have T,P,R same for both the gases.

P_O=P_H

\rho_O.\frac{RT}{M_O}=\rho_H.\frac{RT}{M_H}

\Rightarrow \frac{\rho_O}{32}=\frac{\rho_H}{2}

\rho_O=16\rho_H

∴The molecules of oxygen are more densely packed than the molecules of hydrogen in the same volume at the same temperature and pressure. So, <em>the number of oxygen molecules in the left container greater than the number of hydrogen molecules in the right container.</em>

How many chicken feet hatch from 3 dozen eggs? Explain.
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer: I think it would be 72 because 12x3=36 and then all the chick have 2 feet each so you would multiply t but 2 and that would be 72

This is the change in kinetic energy of a system in which a 16 kg object moving at 25 m/s slows to a velocity of 20 m/s
Dennis_Churaev [7]

The kinetic energy of an object is given by

KE = 0.5mv²

where m is the mass and v is the velocity.

To calculate the change in kinetic energy...

Initial KE:

KEi = 0.5mVi²

where Vi is the initial velocity.

Final KE:

KEf = 0.5mVf²

where Vf is the final velocity.

ΔKE = KEf - KEi

ΔKE = 0.5mVi² - 0.5mVf²

ΔKE = 0.5m(Vf²-Vi²)

Given values:

m = 16kg

Vi = 25m/s

Vf = 20m/s

Plug in the given values and solve for ΔKE:

ΔKE = 0.5×16×(20²-25²)

ΔKE = -1800J
