Copper (II) Carbonate + Heat yields copper (II) oxide and carbon dioxide
Molecular Equation: CuCo3 + heat > CuO + CO2
<span>A.H2O = water, so it is a liquid at room temperatures (melting point = 0C) and melting point must be below 20C
B.HCl = A gas at room temperatures, so melting point (-114C) is definitely lower than 20C.
Melting points of the aqueous solution (solution in water) at different concentrations are all below that of water, i.e. 0C.
C.CH4 = A gas at room temperatures, so melting point (-182C) must be below 20C.
D.MgCl2 = A white powdery solid at room temperatures, so its melting point (714C) must be above 20C (So this is the only one among the four choices that melts above 20 ° C).</span>
Answer:
(CH3)3N(aq)
Explanation:
We have to think of the definition of acid and base in the sense of Brownstead-Lowry. The Brønsted–Lowry theory is an acid–base reaction theory which was proposed independently by Johannes Nicolaus Brønsted and Thomas Martin Lowry in 1923.
A Bronsted-Lowry acid is a chemical species that donates one or more hydrogen ions in a reaction. In contrast, a Bronsted-Lowry base accepts hydrogen ions. When it donates its proton, the acid becomes its conjugate base. A more general approach to the theory is viewing an acid as a proton donor and a base as a proton acceptor.
If we look at the reaction closely, we can see that (CH3)3N(aq) accepted a proton. According to the definition above, we will have to classify (CH3)3N(aq) as a base. Hence the answer.

Homeostasis also refers to the process in which an organism maintains balance of things such as body temperature, water levels and salt levels. Many chemical reactions happen in order maintain homeostasis. Hormones must be made by breaking other molecules. ... Muscles need to produce heat in order to warm the body.
It’s Neon (Ne). You know because there are 10 protons and the number of protons is equal to the atomic number of an element. (Neon is #10 on the periodic table)
