If you have an aqueous solution that contains 1.5 moles of HCl, the number of moles of ions in the solution is 3.0 moles.
<h2>Further Explanation
</h2><h3>Strong acids </h3>
- Strong acids are types of acids that undergo complete dissociation to form ions when dissolved in water.
- Examples of such acids are, HCl, H2SO4 and HNO3
- Dissociation of HCl
HCl + H₂O ⇔ H₃O⁺ + OH⁻
<h3>Weak acids </h3>
- Weak acids are types of acids that undergo incomplete dissociation to form ions when dissolved in water.
- Examples of such acids are acetic acids and formic acids.
- Dissociation of acetic acid
H₃COOH ⇔ CH₃COO⁻ + H⁺; CH₃COO⁻ is a conjugate base of acetic acid.
<h3>In this case;</h3>
- HCl which is a strong acid that ionizes completely according to the equation;
HCl + H₂O ⇔ H₃O⁺ + OH⁻
- From the equation, 1 mole of HCl produces 1 mole of H₃O⁺ ions and 1 mole of OH⁻ ions.
Therefore;
1.5 moles of HCl will produce;
= 1.5 moles of H₃O⁺ ions and 1.5 moles of OH⁻ ions.
This gives a total number ions of;
= 1.5 + 1.5
= 3 moles of ions

I recently did this assignment!
Instructions: Read each myth (untruth). Reword it to make a factual statement. Then, give two to three reasons why the myth is untrue. Use complete sentences and support your answer with evidence, using your own words.

Answer:
Myth: A dead organism is the same as a nonliving thing in science.
o Fact: In science, dead is the same as nonliving.
o Evidence: Things that are nonliving never had the characteristics of life, and never will. Things that are dead once did have the characteristics of life, but when they die, they lose some of the characteristics. That is why dead and non-living are NOT the same thing.
Hope this helped!

Answer:
A chemical reaction is the change in chemical form rather than physical due to an outside force. This can come from something as simple as a change in temerature to as large as a specific element or compound.
H2S donates a proton, therefore it is a Brønsted-Lowry base; CH3NH2 accepts a proton, so it’s a Brønsted-Lowry base.
