The reaction of a Lewis acid with a Lewis base would most likely be accompanied by an increase in which item?

Chemistry

Answer:

The correct answer is "covalent bonds".

Explanation:

A covalent coordinated or dative bond is formed when two atoms are linked together, sharing a pair of electrons. But only one of these atoms is the one that brings the pair of shared electrons. For this type of bond to occur, it is required that the donor atom has a pair of free electrons in an outer orbital and the acceptor atom has the capacity to receive that pair of electrons in its last valence layer.

On the other hand, a Lewis base is a substance that can share or donate a pair of electrons, because they have a pair of solitary electrons. A  Lewis acid is that substance that accepts or takes a pair of electrons because they have their last electron layer incomplete.  

It is then possible to say that an Lewis acid-base reaction is formed by the Lewis acid and base joined by a coordinated covalent bond.

So, <u><em>the correct answer is "covalent bonds".</em></u>

The correct option is COVALENT BONDS.

A Lewis acid is defined as a substance which accept a pair of electron while a Lewis base refers to a substance that donate an unshared pair of electrons to another chemical specie with which it shared the donated pair of electrons.

Lewis acid and Lewis base react together to form salt and water. This type of reaction is called neutralization reaction. The neutralization reaction of Lewis acid and Lewis base involves electron pairs transfer, thus, there is an increase in the number of covalent bonds during this reaction.

During the first half of the 20th century, the theory of plate tectonics was developed. Evidence supporting this theory included
Makovka662 [10]

A) GPS monitoring and satellite imagery of crustal movements

Explanation:

The most recent evidence supporting the theory of plate tectonics is the use of  GPS monitoring and satellite imagery of crustal movements.

GPS denotes Global Positioning Systems.

Satellite imagery is a recent advancement in the study of moving plates.

  • The global positioning system uses the position of a system of satellites in space to delineate positions on earth.
  • It works on the principles of triangulation and this helps to fix positions of objects on the earth surface.
  • With this, the change in position of the plates can be recorded by known fixed positions of objects.
  • Satellite imagery helps to map changes in terrain with time.
  • Images can be correlated through time and the shift in terrains delineated.

Imagine that you are observing an enzyme-catalyzed reaction in lab. every time you add more enzyme, the reaction rate increases
tester [92]

Enzymes catalyze the chemical reactions, they act upon the reaction substrates and speed up the reaction. Enzymes have active sites, the places where the reaction substrates interact with the enzyme bringing about the conversion of substrates to products. So, as the enzyme concentration increases the rate of reaction increases till a point where the rate is leveled off. The rate does not further increase, as the substrate might have become limiting at that point. All the available amount of substrate would have been associated with the active sites of the enzymes. So, at that point although there is enough catalyst, lack of substrate would limit the rate of reaction.

How many grams are in 1 mole of Pb3(PO4)4?
kvasek [131]

Answer:

In 1 mol of Pb₃(PO₄)₄ occupies 1001.48 grams

Explanation:

This compound is the lead (IV) phosphate.

Grams that occupy 1 mole, means the molar mass of the compound

Pb = 207.2  .3 = 621.6 g/m

P = 30.97 .4 = 123.88 g/m

O = (16 .  4) . 4 = 256 g/m

621.6 g/m + 123.88 g/m + 256 g/m = 1001.48 g/m

Any help with these questions would help i'm lost
SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

1.  31.25 mL

2.  1.98 g/L

3.  0.45 g/mL

Explanation:

For each of the problems, you need to perform unit conversions.  You need to use the information given to you to convert to a specific unit.

1.  You need volume (mL).  You have density (g/mL) and mass (g).  Divide mass by density.  You will cancel out mL and be left with g.

(50.0 g)/(1.60 g/mL) = 31.25 mL

2.  You are given grams and liters.  You need to find density with units g/L.  This means that you have to divide grams by liters.

(0.891 g)/(0.450 L) = 1.98 g/L

3.  You have to find density again but this time with units g/mL.  Divide the given mass by the volume.

(10.0 g)/(22.0 mL) = 0.45 g/mL
