<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

Damm [24]

Answer:

A. Carboxyl group

Explanation:

The carboxyl group is an organic functional group in chemistry that consists of a carbon atom double-bonded to an oxygen atom and singly linked to a hydroxyl group. Another way to think about it is as a carbonyl group (C=O) with an attached hydroxyl group (O-H).

Calculate the ionization constant for the following acids or bases from the ionization constant of its conjugate base or conjuga
suter [353]

Answer:

7.41 × 10⁻⁵

Explanation:

Let's consider the basic dissociation reaction of trimethylamine (CH₃)N).

(CH₃)N + H₂O = (CH₃)NH⁺ + OH⁻

According to Brönsted-Lowry, in this reaction (CH₃)N is a base and (CH₃)NH⁺ is its conjugate acid. The pKb for (CH₃)N is 9.87. We can calculate the pKa of (CH₃)NH⁺ using the following expression.

pKa + pKb = 14

pKa = 14 - pKb = 14 - 9.87 = 4.13

Then, we can calculate the acid dissociation constant for (CH₃)NH⁺ using the following expression.

pKa = -log Ka

Ka = antilog - pKa = antilog -4.13 = 7.41 × 10⁻⁵

Consider the combustion of octane:
just olya [345]

Answer:

15.9 g

Explanation:

(Take the atomic mass of C=12.0, H=1.0, O=16.0)

no. of moles = mass / molar mass

no. of moles of octane used = 11.2 / (12.0x8 + 1x18)

= 0.0982456 mol

Since oxygen is in excess and octane is the limiting reagent, the no. of moles of H2O depends on the no. of moles of octane used.

From the balanced equation, the mole ratio of octane : water = 2:18 = 1: 9,

so this means, one mole of octane produced 9 moles of water.

Using this ratio, we can deduce that (y is the no. of moles of water produced):

\frac{1}{9} =\frac{0.0982456}{y}

y = 0.0982456x9

y= 0.88421 mol

Since mass = no. of moles x molar mass,

mass of water produced = 0.88421  x (1.0x2+16.0)

=15.9 g

Which is NOT a way that bacteria can be beneficial?
Artyom0805 [142]

C  Bacteria evolve and become resistant to antibiotics.

Explanation:

Bacteria are small micro-organisms found in nature. They are useful to all life and the same time can be harmful.

Bacteria can evolve and become resistant to antibiotics thereby causing serious health problems.

  • Bacteria in living cells can develop resistant strains which prevents antibiotics from acting on them.
  • With the passage of time, the bacteria can change their structure into that of a more resistant strain.
  • This can prevent antibiotics from acting on them and by so inflict serious damage to life.
