<span>An acid is a compound that produces hydrogen ions when dissolved in water. The pH of acid is less than 7 because it is rich in H+ concentration. Basic solutions have pH greater than 7 because it is rich in OH-. Neutral solutions meanwhile have pH equal to 7.</span>

Answer: a. acid

Explanation:

a. Acids are those substances which either donates hydrogen ions (H^+) when dissolved in water or accepts a pair of electrons.

HCl\rightarrow H^++Cl^-

b. Buffer is a solution which resist changes in pH on addition of small amounts of acid or base into it.

c. Bases are those substances which either donates hydroxide ions (OH^-) when dissolved in water or donates a pair of electrons.

NaOH\rightarrow Na^++OH^-

d. Indicators are chemical compounds which show a change or appearance in color at particular pH. Example: litmus

With the help of word equations identify the products of heating candle wax?​
Y_Kistochka [10]

Explanation:

The word equation for the burning of a candle is wax plus oxygen yields carbon dioxide and water. This is an exothermic reaction that produces both light and heat.

The fuel for a burning candle is the wax. There are many different types of wax with a corresponding number of chemical formulas, but they are all hydrocarbons. Hydrocarbons are molecules made from hydrogen and carbon.

Burning the wax pulls the hydrogen and carbon in the wax apart and recombines them with oxygen from the atmosphere. This is an oxidation reaction. The resulting carbon dioxide and water are gases that disperse in the air.

Complete combustion of 5.90 g of a hydrocarbon produced 18.8 g of CO2 and 6.75 g of H2O.
Inessa05 [86]
First we have to find moles of C:
Molar mass of CO2:
12*1+16*2 = 44g/mol
(18.8 g CO2) / (44.00964 g CO2/mol) x (1 mol C/ 1 mol CO2) =0.427 mol C 
Molar mass of H2O:
2*1+16 = 18g/mol
As there is 2 moles of H in H2O,
So,

<span>(6.75 g H2O) / (18.01532 g H2O/mol) x (2 mol H / 1 mol H2O) = 0.74mol H </span>

<span>Divide both number of moles by the smaller number of moles: </span>
<span>As Smaaler no moles is 0.427:
So,
Dividing both number os moles by 0.427 :
(0.427 mol C) / 0.427 = 1.000 </span>
<span>(0.74 mol H) / 0.427 = 1.733 </span>

<span>To achieve integer coefficients, multiply by 2, then round to the nearest whole numbers to find the empirical formula: 
C = 1 * 2 = 2
H = 1.733 * 2 =3.466
So , the empirical formula is C2H3</span>

The molecular weight of a gas is ________ g/mol if 3.5 g of the gas occupies 2.1 l at stp
bija089 [108]
<span>Pre-1982 definition of STP: 37 g/mol Post-1982 definition of STP: 38 g/mol This problem is somewhat ambiguous because the definition of STP changed in 1982. Prior to 1982, the definition was 273.15 K at a pressure of 1 atmosphere (101325 Pascals). Since 1982, the definition is 273.15 K at a pressure of exactly 100000 Pascals). Because of those 2 different definitions, the volume of 1 mole of gas is either 22.414 Liters (pre 1982 definition), or 22.71098 liters (post 1982 definition). And finally, there's entirely too many text books out there that still use the 35 year obsolete definition. So let's solve this problem using both definitions and you need to pick the correct answer for the text book you're using. First, determine how many moles of gas you have. Just simply divide the volume you have by the molar volume. Pre-1982: 2.1 / 22.414 = 0.093691443 moles Post-1982: 2.1 / 22.71098 = 0.092466287 moles Now determine the molar mass. Simply divide the mass by the moles. So Pre-1982: 3.5 g / 0.093691443 moles = 37.35666667 g/mol Post-1982: 3.5 g / 0.092466287 moles = 37.85163333 g/mol Finally, round to 2 significant figures. So Pre-1982: 37 g/mol Post-1982: 38 g/mol</span>
