Answer:

In this theory, an acid is a substance that can release a proton (like in the Arrhenius theory) and a base is a substance that can accept a proton. A basic salt, such as Na+F-, generates OH- ions in water by taking protons from water itself (to make HF)

ACID: A substance that accepts a lone pair of electrons

BASE: A substance that donates a lone pair of electrons

What are weak bonds that allow flexibility in an enzyme

34kurt

Enzymes are characterized to have weak bonds because their tertiary structure could easily bend and break because it will have to adjust to the shape of the substrate. It could be done via induced fitting or lock-and-key theory. These weak bonds are intermolecular forces like the London forces, electrostatic interactions and hydrogen bonding.

Bromophenol blue is the indicator used in detecting the endpoint for the antacid analysis in this experiment. what is the expect

Paul [167]

Hello!

For the antacid analysis, the chemical reactions that occur in the titration are the following ones:

First, the antacid (composed of weak bases and carbonates) is completely neutralized by the H⁺ ions in the HCl

2HCl + CaCO₃ → CO₂ + H₂O + 2CaCl₂

HCl + OH⁻ → H₂O + Cl⁻

The titration reaction consists in titrating the excess H⁺ ions that are left in the solution, by the following reaction:

H⁺ + NaOH → H₂O + Na⁺

So, when the equivalence point is reached, the solution will go from acid to basic. As bromophenol blue is yellow in acidic solution and blue in basic solution, you'll expect the indicator to change from yellow to blue.

Have a nice day!
