Answer:

NH4+(aq)  → NH3(aq) + H+(aq)

Explanation:

Following arrhenius, an acid can be defined as:

An Arrhenius acid is a substance that, when added to water, increases the concentration of H+ ions in water.

NH4+(aq)  → NH3(aq) + H+(aq)

The ammonium ion acts as a weak acid in aqueous solution, dissociating into ammonia and a hydrogen ion.

An Arrhenius base is a substance that, when added to water, increases the concentration of OH- ions in water.

NH4+(aq) will not dissciate in OH- ions. So it's not a base, but an acid.

An unsaturated solution is formed when 80 grams of a salt is dissolved in 100 grams of water at 40. This salt could be ?
LekaFEV [45]
A simple way to go about this is that we look at the solubility curve, on the x axis we first look at the temperature and then the corresponding value of solute/100g H2O on the y axis, from the 4 curves above only NaNO3 has a curve that can accommodate  80g of salt at 40 without being Saturated since at 40 degrees it can accommodate 105g of salt to become completely Saturated.

Which of the following best describes physical science?
Alex17521 [72]

The study of matter and energy best describes physical science. Hence, option B is correct.

<h3>What is physical science?</h3>

Physical science is the study of the inorganic world.

Physics is a branch of science that studies matter and its motion through space and time, along with related concepts such as energy and force. Physics is one of the "fundamental sciences" because of the other natural sciences (like biology, geology etc.)

Thus the study of matter and energy best describes physical science. Hence, option B is correct.

How many moles of HNO3 are present if 4.90×10−2 mol of Ba(OH)2 was needed to neutralize the acid solution?
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

0.098 moles

Explanation:

Let y represent the number of moles present

1 mole of Ba(OH)₂ contains 2 moles of OH- ions.

Hence, 0.049 moles of Ba(OH)2 contains y moles of OH- ions.

To get the y moles, we then do cross multiplication

1 mole *  y mole = 2 moles * 0.049 mole

y mole = 2 * 0.049 / 1

y mole =  0.098 moles of OH- ions.

1 mole of OH- can neutralize 1 mole of H+

Therefore, 0.098 moles of HNO₃ are present.
