Si Units Worksheet. Use si units to complete
Keith_Richards [23]

\\ \bull\tt\dashrightarrow 2000m=2km

\\ \bull\tt\dashrightarrow 9000mL=9L

\\ \bull\tt\dashrightarrow 6L=6000mL

\\ \bull\tt\dashrightarrow 6cm=60mm

\\ \bull\tt\dashrightarrow 1000m=1km

\\ \bull\tt\dashrightarrow 50mm=5cm

\\ \bull\tt\dashrightarrow 4L=4000mL

\\ \bull\tt\dashrightarrow 10000g=10kg

\\ \bull\tt\dashrightarrow 10000m=10km

\\ \bull\tt\dashrightarrow 4000g=4kg

\\ \bull\tt\dashrightarrow 9km=9000m

\\ \bull\tt\dashrightarrow 3kg=3000g

\\ \bull\tt\dashrightarrow 90mm=9cm

\\ \bull\tt\dashrightarrow 4km=4000m

\\ \bull\tt\dashrightarrow 2000g=2kg

\\ \bull\tt\dashrightarrow 400cm=4m

\\ \bull\tt\dashrightarrow 3km=3000m

\\ \bull\tt\dashrightarrow 2cm=20mm

Which model of acids and bases would NOT define NH3 as a base (even though it is considered one by the other models)?
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

<em>The correct option is A) Arrhenius</em>

Explanation:

According to the Arrhenius concept of acids and bases, an acid must produce H+ ions when it is present in a solution and the base must produce OH- ions when placed in a solution.

Ammonia does not contain OH- ions of its own when dissolved in water.

The reaction of ammonia dissolving is water can be written as:

NH3     +    H2O     ⇌   NH4+ + OH−

As we can see from the equation, ammonia does form OH- ions but it does not have OH- ions on its own.

Hence, according to the Arrhenius concept, NH3 is not a base.

Furkat [3]

Answer:

radius = 156 pm

Explanation:

The relation between radius and edge length of unit cell of BCC is

r=a\sqrt{3}/4

Given

a = 360 pm

Therefore

r = r = radius = 360\sqrt{3}/4= 155.88 pm

Or

156 pm
