Acid donates a proton and produces a conjugate base.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Len [333]3 years ago
4 0

Answer: Yes! The statement is true

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)

The 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.

Thus, the statement "Acid donates a proton and produces a conjugate base" is true.

Two 0.75 Amp loads are connected in parallel with a 2500 Milliamperehour Ni-Cd battery. Approximately how long can the battery p
nikdorinn [45]

Explanation:

It is given that two loads have 0.75 Ampere current each. And, they contain 2500 milli ampere per hour Ni-Cd battery.

As both the loads are connected in parallel. Hence, total current will be calculated as follows.

               I = I_{1} + I_{2}

                 = 0.75 A + 0.75 A

                 = 1.5 A

                 = 1.5 A \times \frac{1000 mA}{1 A}

                 = 1500 mA

Relation between time and capacity of battery is as follows.

             Capacity = Current × time (in hour)

therefore,        time = \frac{Capacity}{Current}

                                = \frac{2500 mA. h}{1500 A}

                                = 1.667 hr

Thus, we can conclude that the battery provide power to the load up to 1.667 hours.
