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.

natima [27]

C) 10 grams

Explanation:

Potassium chlorate (KCIO₃) have a solubility in water at 70 °C of 30 grams in 100 grams of water.

If our solution have already 20 grams of potassium chlorate salt dissolved that means we need another 10 grams of potassium chlorate to reach the saturation point.

A typical aspirin tablet contains 500. mg of c9h8o4. how many moles of c9h8o4 molecules and how many molecules of acetylsalicyli
joja [24]
From the periodic table:
molar mass of carbon = 12 gm
molar mass of hydrogen = 1 gm
molar mass of oxygen = 16 gm

molar mass of <span>acetylsalicylic acid = 9(12) + 8(1) + 4(16) = 180 gm

Number of moles = mass / molar mass = 0.5 / 180 = 2.778 x 10^-3 moles

To get the number of molecules, we multiply the number of moles by Avogadro's number as follows:
number of molecules = </span>2.778x10^-3x6.02x10^23 =1.672 x 10^21 molecules
