An Arrhenius acid by definition dissociates in water to form H3O+ (or H+) ions while an arrhenius base dissociates in water to form OH- ions.
NH4+(aq) can be categorised as an arrhenius acid since it releases H3O+ ions in aqueous media
NH4+(aq) + H2O (aq) ↔ NH3 (aq) + H3O+(aq)
Answer: It loses electrons to another element.
Explanation:- Oxidation is the process in which an element loses electrons and there is an increase in the oxidation state. On losing electrons it combines with a electronegative element such as oxygen, sulphur or nitrogen etc.
Reduction is the process in which an element gains electrons and there is a decrease in the oxidation state.
None of the questions asked can be answered completely from the graph provided (GHG emissions: Direct, indirect and total Vs Year)
Reason:
1) Question A:<span>What caused a drop in GHG emissions around 2009?. This questions in pointing towards reason for drop of GHG emission around 2009. From the graph, it can be seen that there is a drop in GHG emission around 2009. However, information for reason for this drop is not available in graph.
2) Question B: </span>Did GHG emissions cause the melting of Arctic glaciers?. As mentioned earlier, the graph plotted provides information of GHG emissions: Vs Year. Information related to impact of GHG on environment is not available in graph.
3) Question C: <span>How much methane was emitted by homes between 1990 and 2000?. Graph provides information of direct and indirect emission for GHG. However, it lacks information about emission from residential or industrial sources.
4) </span>Question D: <span>Does industrial equipment release gases other than greenhouse gases?: Present study doesnot cover type of gases emitted from industrial equipment.
5) </span>Question E: <span>Which types of industries were included in the study?: Present graph has not specific information related to industries. </span>
