Is ammonium ion a bronsted base

Leokris [45]

Unlikely. It's unlikely for ammonium ion ${\text{NH}_4}^{+}$ to accept a proton $\text{H}^{+}$ and act as a Bronsted-Lowry Acid.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

What's the definition of Bronsted-Lowry acids and bases?

Bronsted-Lowry Acid: a species that can donate one or more protons $\text{H}^{+}$ in a reaction.

Bronsted-Lowry Base: a species that can accept one or more protons $\text{H}^{+}$

Ammonium ions ${\text{NH}_4}^{+}$ are positive. Protons $\text{H}^{+}$ are also positive.

Positive charges repel each other, which means that it will be difficult for ${\text{NH}_4}^{+}$ to accept any additional protons. As a result, it's unlikely that ${\text{NH}_4}^{+}$ will accept any proton and act like a Bronsted-Lowry Base.

If the compound has a molar mass of 156 g/mol, what is its molecular formula?

oksano4ka [1.4K]

I believe that the choices for this question are:
C2H4O2, C4H8O4 CH2O, C6H12O6 C3H6O3, C6H12O6 C2H4O2, C6H12O6

The answer to this based on the molar masses given is:
C2H4O2, C6H12O6

To prove calculate the molar mass:
C2H4O2 = 2*12 + 4*1 + 2*16 = 60
C6H12O6 = 6*12 + 12*1 + 6*16 = 180

How many atoms are in 85.1 grams of neon

strojnjashka [21]

Convert the mass to moles .

85.1 g ÷ 20.18 g/mol = 4.21704658

convert the moles to molecules

4.2170 mol × 6.022^23 molecules/mol = 2.539^24
