Answer:

Explanation:

The definition of acids and bases by Arrhenius Theory  was modified and extended by  Bronsted-Lowry.

Bronsted-Lowry defined acid as a molecule or ion which donates a proton while a base is a molecule or ions that accepts the proton. This definition can be extended to include acid -base titrations in non-aqueous solutions.

In this theory, the reaction of an acid with a base constitutes a transfer of a proton from the acid to the base.

From the given information:

\mathsf{HCN _{(aq)} + H_2O_{(l)} \to CN^{-}_{(aq)} + H_3O_{(aq)}}

From above:

We will see that HCN releases an H⁺ ion, thus it is a Bronsted-Lowry acid

H_2O accepts the H⁺ ion ,thus it is a Bronsted-Lowry base.

The formula of the reactant that acts as a proton donor is <u>HCN</u>

The formula of the reactant that acts as a proton acceptor is <u>H2O</u>

How many grams of Ca(OH)2are required to make 1.5 L of a 0.81 M solution?
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

Mass = 90.28 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of Ca(OH)₂ = ?

Volume of solution= 1.5 L

Molarity of solution = 0.81 M

Solution:

First of all we will calculate number of moles.

Molarity = number of moles / volume in L

by putting values,

0.81 M = Number of moles / 1.5 L

Number of moles = 0.81 M × 1.5 L

Number of moles = 1.22 mol

Mass of Ca(OH)₂ in gram:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 1.22 mol × 74.09 g/mol

Mass = 90.28 g
