Determine if each statement below is True or False regarding Arrhenius and Br∅nsted-Lowry definitions for acids and bases.
1 answer:
Answer:
All statements are true
Explanation:
Arrhenius theory:-
The Arrhenius theory was introduced introduced by Swedish scientist named Svante Arrhenius in 1887.
According to the theory, acids are the substances which dissociate in the aqueous medium to produce electrically charged atoms ( may be molecule). Out of these species furnished, one must be a proton or the hydrogen ion, .
Hence, statement 1 is correct.
Bronsted-Lowry base is the specie which accepts the proton form the medium. For example, Benzoate ion is the conjugate base of the benzoic acid. It is a Bronsted-Lowry base and the dissociation of benzoate ion can be shown as:-
Hence, statement 2 is correct.
Acetic acid will dissociate as:-
Hence, statement 3 is also correct.

Given :
Compound A reacts with Compound B to form only one product, Compound C.
The usual percent yield of C in this reaction is 40%.
10.0 g of A are reacted with excess Compound B, and 6.4 g of Compound C
To Find :
The theoretical yield of C.
Solution :
We know, % yield is given by :
Putting given values , we get :
Therefore, theoretical yield of C is 16 g.
Hence, this is the required solution.
