The correct answer is option a, that is, they produce ions when dissolved in water.
The acids and bases refer to the chemical components, which reacts with water. The molecules of acids dissociate to give hydrogen ions to water, while the bases dissociate to provide hydroxide ions to the water, or that takes hydrogen ions from water and leave the hydroxide ions behind.
There are 6 Nitrogen atoms
low melting point means that a low amount of heat is required to melt said substance.
Answer is: the hydronium ion concentratio is 1.71×10⁻⁷ mol/dm³ and pH<6.76.
The Kw (the ionization constant of water) at 40°C is 2.94×10⁻¹⁴ mol²/dm⁶ or 2.94×10⁻¹⁴ M².
Kw = [H₃O⁺] · [OH⁻].
[H₃O⁺] = [OH⁻] = x.
Kw = x².
x = √Kw.
x = √2.94×10⁻¹⁴ M².
x = [H₃O⁺] = 1.71×10⁻⁷ M; concentration of hydronium ion.
pH = -log[H₃O⁺].
pH = -log(1.71×10⁻⁷ M).
pH = 6.76.
pH (potential of hydrogen) is a numeric scale used to specify the acidity or basicity an aqueous solution.
