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.

3. A compound consists of 91.63 grams of carbon, 7.69 grams of hydrogen and 40.81 grams of
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

Molecular formula = C₁₂H₁₂O₄

Empirical formula is C₃H₃O.

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of C = 91.63 g

Mass of H = 7.69 g

Mass pf O = 40.81 g

Molar mass of compound = 220 g/mol

Empirical formula = ?

Molecular formula = ?

Solution:

Number of gram atoms of H = 7.69 / 1.01 = 7.61

Number of gram atoms of O = 40.81 / 16 = 2.55

Number of gram atoms of C = 91.63 / 12 = 7.64

Atomic ratio:

            C                      :      H                :         O

           7.64/2.55          :    7.61 /2.55    :       2.55/2.55

               3                     :          3               :        1

C : H : O = 3 : 3 : 1

Empirical formula is C₃H₃O.

Molecular formula:

Molecular formula = n (empirical formula)

n = molar mass of compound / empirical formula mass

Empirical formula mass  = 3×12+ 3×1.01 +16 = 55.03

n = 220 / 55.03

n = 4

Molecular formula = 4 (empirical formula)

Molecular formula = 4 (C₃H₃O)

Molecular formula = C₁₂H₁₂O₄

In real-life situations, workers collect water samples in a lake or stream instead of using Samples A and B. For this lab to wor
Aloiza [94]
The given above pretty much states already that with the presence of the calcium carbonate which acts as the buffer will allow the solution to withstand changes in acidity. The greater the amount, the higher chances that it will be able to withstand the said changes. Therefore, if Lake X had greater ppm of CaCO3 then, it will be able to withstand greater amount of acid rain.

If a proton and an electron are released when they are 5.50×10−10 mm apart (typical atomic distances), find the initial accelera
Vlada [557]

Answer: The initial acceleration of the proton = (4.56 × 10^23) m/s2

The initial acceleration of the electron = (8.36 × 10^26) m/s2

Explanation: The force of attraction between the proton and electron can be computed using the statements of Coulomb's law which state that the force of attraction between two charged particles is directly proportional to the product of the two charges and inversely proportional to the square of their distances apart.

F = (Kq1q2)/(r^2) where K = (9 × (10^9) Nm(C^-2))

But q1 is the charge on a proton = (1.6 × (10^-19)) C

q2 is charge on an electron = -(1.6 × (10^-19)) C

r = (5.50 × (10^-10))mm = (5.50 × (10^-13))m

Computing all that, F = 0.0007616529 N = (7.62 × 10^-4) N

But the force of attraction is converted to that required for motion when they're released.

F = ma.

For proton, m = (1.67 × 10^-27) kg

a = F/m = 0.000762/(1.67 × 10^-27) = (4.56 × 10^23) m/s2

For electron, m = (9.11 × 10^-31) kg

a = F/m = 0.000762/(9.11 × 10^-31) = (8.36 × 10^26) m/s2
