Answer:

d. the conjugate base.

Explanation:

The general reaction of a weak acid, HA, with a strong base YOH, is:

HA + YOH → A⁻ + H₂O + Y⁻

<em>Where A⁻ is the conjugate base of the weak acid and Y⁻ usually is a strong electrolyte.</em>

<em />

That means after he complete reaction you don't have weak acid nor strong base, just conjugate base that will be in equilibrium with water, thus (Strong electrolyte doesn't change pH:

A⁻ + H₂O ⇄ HA + OH⁻

As the equilibrium is producing OH⁻, the pH of the solution is being affected for the conjugate base

Right option:

<h3>d. the conjugate base. </h3>

Please help me Solve this *I DONT WANT THE ANSWER* Just give me a good explanation...
timurjin [86]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

'Ordered Arrangement' basically means that it is a solid at room temperature. Room temperature is approximately 15-20C so we are looking for melting and boiling points that are above room temperature so it hasn't/can't melt or boil at room temperature and would therefore be solid. Option C is the only one where both points are temperatures above room temperature therefore option C is the only one where the substance would be in an 'ordered arrangement' at room temperature.

Hope this helped!

PLEASE HELP!! WILL GIVE 5 STARS, A THANKS AND BRAINLIEST
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

"Carbon dioxide (CO2) is one of a number of gases that are transparent to the visible light falling on the Earth from the Sun, but absorb the infra-red radiation (heat) emitted by the warm surface of the Earth, preventing its loss into space. During the geological history of the Earth the level of atmospheric CO2 has varied considerably and this has had an impact on the global temperature. A significant amount of this atmospheric carbon was sequestered or (removed from the atmosphere) and turned into inert material (coal, and oil) typically 300-360 Million years ago. All of the global ecosystems and species have adapted to a lower level of atmospheric CO2 and critically, human civilisation has also grown since that period.  Since the industrial revolution humans have been burning sequestered CO2 in the form of coal, oil, and natural gas which has the result of releasing energy but also releases CO2 back into the atmosphere".
