Chemistry
1 answer:
Mama L [17]4 years ago
3 0
A chemist (from Greek chēm (ía) alchemy; replacing chemist from Medieval Latin alchimista[1]) is a scientist trained in the study of chemistry. Chemists study the composition of matter and its properties. Chemists carefully describe the properties they study in terms of quantities, with detail on the level of molecules and their component atoms. Chemists carefully measure substance proportions, reaction rates, and other chemical properties. The word 'chemist' is also used to address Pharmacists in Commonwealth English.

Nata [24]

Answer:

molar mass of carbon tetrafluoride (CF4) is

(12.01 × 1 ) + ( 4 × 19.00)

= 12.01 + 76

= 88.01u

= 88u

What does mechanical digestion mean ?
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

Explanation:

Mechanical digestion involves physically breaking down food substances into smaller particles to more efficiently undergo chemical digestion. The role of chemical digestion is to further degrade the molecular structure of the ingested compounds by digestive enzymes into a form that is absorbable into the bloodstream.

A student uses a balance to determine the mass of an object as 5.719 grams. the correct mass of the object is 5.586 grams. what
zaharov [31]
The percentage error is given by multiplying relative error by 100%.
Therefore, to get the percentage error we need relative error which is given by dividing the absolute error with the actual value. 
Absolute error = 0.133
Percentage error = 0.133/5.586 × 100%
                            = 2.38%
The percentage error is therefore; 2.38%

Which statement describes the Arrhenius interpretation of acids and bases?
Vilka [71]

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

Note => 1st one should understand that for an 'acid' to be an acid and a 'base' to be a base, two requirements must be met, (1) the compound must have an ionizable Hydrogen for acids or Hydroxide for bases, and (2) must be in water and ionize delivering H⁺ ions from acids and OH⁻ ions from bases. The  Arrhenius acids are characterized by having an ionizable hydrogen which when added into water increases the hydronium ion concentration (H₃O⁺). Arrhenius bases are characterized by having an ionizable hydroxide function (OH-).

Typically, the acids and bases are characterized as either strong or weak  electrolytes. the Strong electrolytes ionize 100% in water and Weak electrolytes less than 100%.

The strong acids include HCl, HBr, HI, HNO₃, HClO₄ and H₂SO₄ (1st ionization step). Any acid (H-Anion) not a member of the strong 6 is a weak acid.

The strong Arrhenius Bases are Group IA and Group IIA Hydroxides except for Beryllium Hydroxide. Weak Arrhenius Bases are ammonia or ammonia derivatives (amines) in water.  

=> NH₃ + H₂O => NH₄OH ⇄ NH⁺ + OH⁻.

The ammonia derivatives follow the same reactive nature in water.

=> RNH₂ + H₂O => RNH₃OH ⇄ RNH₃⁺ + OH⁻ where R- is a structural substrate; e.g., Methyl Amine => H₃C - NH₂ .
