Which of the following best describes a Lewis base?

Chemistry

Semenov [28]3 years ago
7 0

Answer: Option (C) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

According to Lewis, a base is a substance or specie which is able to donate electrons.

For example, NH_{3} is a lewis base because nitrogen has a lone pair of electron.

Therefore, when ammonia is dissolved in HCl it will accept the hydrogen atom as nitrogen gave electron to the hydrogen atom. As a result, hydrogen bonds with nitrogen atom.

             NH_{3} + HCl \rightarrow NH^{+}_{4}Cl^{-}  

Thus, we can conclude that it donates electrons in solution best describes a Lewis base.

Determine whether you can swim in 1.00 x 10^27 molecules of water.​
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

We can not swim in 1.00 × 10²⁷ molecules of water

Explanation:

The given number of molecules of water = 1.00 × 10²⁷ molecules

The Avogadro's number, N_A, gives the number of molecules in one mole of a substance

N_A ≈ 6.0221409 × 10²³ molecules/mol

Therefore

Therefore, we have;

The number of moles of water present in 1.00 × 10²⁷ molecules, n = (The number of molecules of water) ÷ N_A

∴ n = (1.00 × 10²⁷ molecules)/(6.0221409 × 10²³ molecules/mol) = 1,660.53902857 moles

The mass of one mole of water = The molar mass of water = 18.01528 g/mol

The mass, 'm', of water in 1,660.53902857 moles of water is given as follows;

Mass = (The number of moles of the substance) × (The molar mass of the substance)

∴ The mass of the water in the given quantity of water, m = 1,660.53902857 moles × 18.01528 g/mol ≈ 29.9150756 kg.

The density pf water, ρ = 997 kg/m³

Volume = Mass/Density

∴ The volume of the water present in the given quantity of water, v = 29.9150756 kg/(997 kg/m³) ≈ 30.0050909 liters

The volume of the water present in 1.00 × 10²⁷ molecules of water ≈ 30.0 liters

The average volume of a human body = 62 liters

Therefore, we can not swim in the given quantity of 1.00 × 10²⁷ molecules = 30.0 liters water

How acidic buffer resist change in pH on addition of acid and base.
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

Buffers are solutions that resist changes in pH, upon addition of small amounts of acid or base. The can do this because they contain an acidic component, HA, to neutralize OH- ions, and a basic component, A-, to neutralize H+ ions. Since Ka is a constant, the [H+] will depend directly on the ratio of [HA]/[A-].

hope it's help

suppose you want to treat if a sample compound is ionic. you have these materials: the solid compound, a glass container, a spoo
xz_007 [3.2K]
An ionic compound is a substance that contains atoms that are bonded together through an ionic bond, where electrons are transferred from one atom to another. For the given experiment above, the material that is missing from the list is WATER or solvent. It is necessary because conduction through water will help you identify if a sample compound is ionic through its electrolytes. <span>Ionic compounds that are soluble are typically electrolytes</span>
