Answer: a substance that increases the hydroxide ion concentration of a solution

Explanation: According to Arrhenius concept, an acid is a substance which donates hydronium ions $[H^+]$ ions when dissolved in water and base is a substance which donates hydroxide ions $[OH^-]$ ions in water.

According to the Bronsted Lowry conjugate acid-base pair, an acid is a substance that donates protons and a base is a substance that accepts protons.

According to Lewis concept, an acid is the substance which accepts electron pairs and abase is a substance which donates electron pairs.

Thus a substance that increases the hydroxide ion concentration of a solution is an Arrhenius base.

What happens to the temperatures when we have direct sunlight vs indirect sunlight?

lawyer [7]

Explanation:

When we have direct sunlight, the temperature is higher compared to indirect sunlight.

Direct sunlight is usually overhead whereas indirect sunlight is at an angle to the surface.

Direct sunlight impacts the surface with more energy concentrated on a smaller surface area.
This warms the surface more.
Indirect sunlight is diffuse and spreads over a wider area.
This leads to a reduction in temperature.

Before we can use this equation for

AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

2C₂H₆ + [7]O₂ → [4]CO₂ + [6]H₂O

Explanation:

Chemical equation:

C₂H₆ + O₂ → CO₂ + H₂O

Balanced chemical equation:

2C₂H₆ + 7O₂ → 4CO₂ + 6H₂O

Step 1:

2C₂H₆ + O₂ → CO₂ + H₂O

Left hand side Right hand side

C = 4 C = 1

H = 12 H = 2

O = 2 O = 3

Step 2:

2C₂H₆ + O₂ → 4CO₂ + H₂O

Left hand side Right hand side

C = 4 C = 4

H = 12 H = 2

O = 2 O = 9

Step 3:

2C₂H₆ + O₂ → 4CO₂ + 6H₂O

Left hand side Right hand side

C = 4 C = 4

H = 12 H = 12

O = 2 O = 14

Step 4:

2C₂H₆ + 7O₂ → 4CO₂ + 6H₂O

Left hand side Right hand side

C = 4 C = 4

H = 12 H = 12

O = 14 O = 14
