What are facts or characteristics about acid?

Chemistry

Acids are ionic compounds (a compound with a positive or negative charge) that break apart in water to form hydrogen ion (H+). Characteristics of acid: Acid taste sour. Acids also react strongly to metals, generally with the evolution of hydrogen gas (Eg: Zn + HCI). Also strong acids are dangerous and can burn your skin off. Acids change litmus red. Acids become less acidic when mixed with bases. An acid has Ph scale of under 7.

How many particles are in 23 g of H 2 O?
Sedaia [141]
1 mole of any substance contains 6.022 × 1023 particles.

⚛ 6.022 × 1023 is known as the Avogadro Number or Avogadro Constant and is given the symbol NA

N = n × NA

· N = number of particles in the substance

· n = amount of substance in moles (mol)

· NA = Avogardro Number = 6.022 × 10^23 particles mol-1


For H2O we have:

2 H at 1.0 each = 2.0 amu
1 O at 16.0 each = 16.0 amu
Total for H2O = 18.0 amu, or grams/mole

It takes 18 grams of H2O to obtain 1 mole, or 6.02 x 1023 molecules of water. Think about that before we answer the question. We have 25.0 grams of water, so we have more than one mole of water molecules. To find the exact number, divide the available mass (25.0g) by the molar mass (18.0g/mole). Watch how the units work out. The grams cancel and moles moves to the top, leaving moles of water. [g/(g/mole) = moles].

Here we have 25.0 g/(18.0g/mole) = 1.39 moles water (3 sig figs).

Multiply 1.39 moles times the definition of a mole to arrive at the actual number of water molecules:

1.39 (moles water) * 6.02 x 1023 molecules water/(mole water) = 8.36 x 1023 molecules water.

That's slightly above Avogadro's number, which is what we expected. Keeping the units in the calculations is annoying, I know, but it helps guide the operations and if you wind up with the unit desired, there is a good chance you've done the problem correctly.

N = n × (6.022 × 10^23)


1 grams H2O is equal to 0.055508435061792 mol.

Then 23 g of H2O is 1.2767 mol


To calculate the number of particles, N, in a substance:

N = n × NA

N = 1.2767 × (6.022 × 10^23)

N= 176.26

N=

Leni [432]
Holding temperature and pressure constant <span>the most important feature in determining the phase of a given organic compound is pressure. ransfers of organic compounds between phases are controlled by molecular interactions (intermolecular bonding) in the two phases between which transfer is occurring. This is governed by temperature and pressure</span>

A solution of ammonia has a pH of 11.8. What is the concentration of OH– ions in the solution?
Basile [38]

Answer:

The answer is 2.20 M

Explanation:

This is because ammonia has a pH of 11.8 and if you take 14-11.8 it equals 2.2 so the answer is 2.20 M

What else is produced during the combustion of butane, C4H10?
denpristay [2]

Another product: CO₂

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Reaction

2C₄H₁₀ + 13O₂⇒ 8__+ 10H₂O

Required

product compound

Solution

In the combustion of hydrocarbons there can be 2 kinds of products

If there is excess Oxygen, you will get Carbon dioxide(CO₂) and water in the product

If Oxygen is low, you'll get Carbon monoxide(CO) and water

Or in other ways, we can use the principle of the law of conservation of mass which is also related to the number of atoms in the reactants and in the products

if we look at the reaction above, there are C atoms on the left (reactants), so that in the product there will also be C atoms with the same number of C atoms on the left

2C₄H₁₀ + 13O₂⇒ 8CO₂+ 10H₂O
