Which phrases accurately describe acids? Check all that apply.

Answer: Option 1, 4 and 5 describe acids accurately.
Explanation:
Option 1: Acids have a sour taste because of the concentration of ion.
Option 2: They are corrosive in nature, that is they are not at all gentle with the skin and fabric as some acids intend to burn skin such as is a strong acid which can burn skin as well as fabric.
Option 3: Acids need electrons to release ions and non-metals do not donate electrons hence, there is no reaction between a non-metal and an acid.
Option 4: All acids do contain hydrogen. They dissociate in the presence of water to produce ions.
Option 5: Acids do conduct electricity that is they carry electrical charges. This was explained by Arrhenius. He said that the acids dissociate into ions, when it is dissolved in water. These ions hence acts as charge carriers in water.

Answer: 1.
2. 3 moles of : 2 moles of
3. 0.33 moles of : 0.92 moles of
4. is the limiting reagent and
is the excess reagent.
5. Theoretical yield of is 29.3 g
Explanation:
To calculate the moles :
The balanced chemical equation is:
According to stoichiometry :
3 moles of require = 2 moles of
Thus 0.33 moles of will require=
of
Thus is the limiting reagent as it limits the formation of product and
is the excess reagent.
As 3 moles of give = 2 moles of
Thus 0.33 moles of give =
of
Theoretical yield of
Thus 29.3 g of aluminium chloride is formed.
