Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

According to Bronsted and Lowry, acids are the species which dissociate in water to give hydrogen ions.

Whereas bases are the species which dissociate into water to give hydroxide ions.

Also, like dissolves like. So, when an acid is polar in nature and dissolved in water then it will completely dissociate into ions.

As a result, it will tend to donate hydrogen ions into the solution.

For example, HCl \rightarrow H^{+} + Cl^{-}

Thus, we can conclude that an acid is a polar substance that dissolves in water and donates hydrogen ions to the solution.

Answer: d. donates hydrogen ions to the solution

Explanation:

According to Arrhenius concept, a base is defined as a substance which donates hydroxide ions (OH^-) when dissolved in water and an acid is defined as a substance which donates hydrogen ions (H^+) in water.

HX\rightarrow H^++X^-

BOH\rightarrow B^++OH^-

According to the Bronsted Lowry conjugate acid-base theory, an acid is defined as a substance which donates protons and a base is defined as a substance which accepts protons.

Thus an acid is a polar substance that dissolves in water and donates hydrogen ions to the solution.

Answer:

easy

Explanation:

In physics and chemistry, the law of conservation of energy states that the total energy of an isolated system remains constant; it is said to be conserved over time. This law means that energy can neither be created nor destroyed; rather, it can only be transformed or transferred from one form to another.

How are all cells similar?
Reika [66]

Answer:

All cells have structural and functional similarities. Structures shared by all cells include a cell membrane, an aqueous cytosol, ribosomes, and genetic material (DNA). All cells are composed of the same four types of organic molecules: carbohydrates, lipids, nucleic acids, and proteins.

What mass of butane in grams is necessary to produce 1.5×103 kJ1.5×103 kJ of heat? What mass of CO2CO2 is produced? Assume the r
saul85 [17]

32.8 g of Butane is required and 99.3 g of CO₂ is produced

<u>Explanation:</u>

The above mentioned reaction can be written as,

C₄H₁₀(g) + 13 O₂(g) → 4CO₂(g) + 5 H₂O(g)     where ΔH (rxn)= -2658 kJ

It is given that 1.5 × 10³ kJ of energy is produced, the original reaction says that 2658 kJ of heat is produced, which means that less than one mole of butane is used in the reaction.

That is

$\frac{1500}{2658}=0.564 \text { moles }    of butane reacted

Now this moles is converted into mass by multiplying it with its molar mass  = 0.564 mol × 58.122 g / mol

                     = 32.8 g of butane.

Mass of CO₂ produced = 0.564 ×44.01 g /mol × 4 mol

                                        = 99.3 g of CO₂

Thus 32.8 g of Butane is required and 99.3 g of CO₂ is produced

My barometer is reading 1253 torr. What is the pressure in mmHg?
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

The pressure in mmHg is 1253 (option C)

Explanation:

Two quantities are directly proportional if when multiplying or dividing one of them by a number, the other is multiplied or divided by that number. In other words, the magnitudes are directly proportional when one magnitude increases and so does the other in the same proportion; or when one magnitude decreases and so does the other in the same proportion.

The rule of three or is a way of solving proportionality problems between three known values ​​and an unknown value, which can be applied to directly proportional quantities as follows:

a ⇒ b

c ⇒ x

So x=\frac{c*b}{a}

where a, b and c are data and x is the unknown value to be calculated.

In this case, knowing that 1 Torr = 1 mmHg, the rule of three can be applied as follows: if 1 torr is equal to 1 mmHg, 1253 torr is equal to how many mmHg?

pressure=\frac{1253 torr*1 mmHg}{1 torr}

pressure= 1253 mmHg

<u><em>The pressure in mmHg is 1253 (option C)</em></u>
