Predict how each molecule or ion would act, in the Brønsted-Lowry sense, in aqueous solution by writing "acid," "base," "both,"
Fed [463]

Answer:

Both

Explanation:

produce OH− (hydroxide) ions. According to this view, an acid–base reaction involves the reaction of a proton with a hydroxide ion to form water. Although Brønsted and Lowry defined an acid similarly to Arrhenius by describing an acid as any substance that can donate a proton, the Brønsted–Lowry definition of a base is much more general than the Arrhenius definition. In Brønsted–Lowry terms, a base is any substance that can accept a proton, so a base is not limited to just a hydroxide ion. This means that for every Brønsted–Lowry acid, there exists a corresponding conjugate base with one fewer proton, as we demonstrated in Chapter 4 "Reactions in Aqueous Solution". Consequently, all Brønsted–Lowry acid–base reactions actually involve two conjugate acid–base pairs and the transfer of a proton from one substance (the acid) to another (the base). In contrast, the Lewis definition of acids and bases, discussed in Chapter 8 "Ionic versus Covalent Bonding", focuses on accepting or donating pairs of electrons rather than protons. A Lewis base is an electron-pair donor, and a Lewis acid is an electron-pair acceptor.

Lucite contains 59.9 g C, 8.06 g H,
Alexxandr [17]
You start by finding the mol of each

59.9g C x (mol C / 12.01 g C) = 4.98 mol C
8.06g H x (mol H / 1.00 g H) = 8.06 mol H
32.0 g O x (mol O / 16.0 g O) = 2 mol O

So when you set it up you have
C4.98 H8 O2

You divide each by the smallest mol. The smallest mol is 2

C2 H4 O2.5

However you can’t have half a mol in the empirical formula. If the value ends in 0.5, you multiply everything by 2

You’re left with

C2H8O5

The EMPIRICAL formula for lucite is C2H8O5

Note empirical is not the same as chemical formula.

How much heat is required to convert 2.55g of water at 28.0 degree celsius to steam 100 degree celsius
Crazy boy [7]
767.448 Joules of heat is required.
You use the equation Q=MCdeltaT
Make sure you convery celsius to Kelvin
Specific heat of water is 4.18
So it will be Q=2.55(4.18)(72)
Q=767.448

A sample of a compound contains only the elements sodium, sulfur, and oxygen. it is found by analysis to contain 0.979 g na, 1.3
Aloiza [94]
To determine the empirical formula for the compound that contains <span>0.979 g Na, 1.365 g S, and 1.021 g O, we convert these to mole units. The molar masses to be used are:

Molar mass of Na = 23 g/mol
</span>Molar mass of S = 32 g/mol
Molar mass of O = 16 g/ mol

The number of moles is obtained using the molar mass for each element.

moles Na = 0.979 g Na/ 23 g/mol Na = 0.04256
moles S = 1.365 g Na/ 32 g/mol Na = 0.04265
moles O = 1.021 g O/ 16 g/mol Na = 0.06326

We then divide each with the smallest number of moles obtained. 

Na: 0.04256/ 0.04256 = 1 
S: 0.04265/ 0.04256 = 1.002 ≈ 1
O: 0.06326/ 0.04256 = 1.49 ≈ 1.5

We then have an empirical formula of NaSO₁.₅. However, chemical formulas must have only integers as subscripts, thus, we multiply each to 2. The empirical formula is then Na₂S₂O₃ also known as sodium thiosulfate.
