ANSWER IS (A)
EXPLANATION:
Bronsted-Lowry concept states that a substance is an acid if it can act as a H+ donor.
HCl in aqueous solution means that HCl is present in water, HCl + H2O --> H3O+ + Cl-. This reaction will take place, the H+ from HCl will be donated to H2O. So, HCl is a bronsted-lowry acid by definition.
However, Methanol (CH3OH) its written that it is liquid, i.e. pure methanol, CH3OH(l). It is both acidic as well as basic. when it is mixed with water then it behaves as an acid.
The last one ammonia in gas phase is also neutral because its not in water. if mixed in water it behaves as a base.
Answer:
Fluorine
Explanation:
Fluorine is assigned the oxidation number of -1 because it attracts the electrons in the bond more strongly than carbon does. Fluorine appears to have an extra electron, -1 oxidation number.
Fluorine is the most electronegative element on the periodic table.
Answer:
HCl is not a catalyst because these are not used up during the chemical reactions.
Explanation:
Hello there!
In this case, according to the performed experiments, it is possible for us to realize that HCl cannot be a catalyst for this reaction because it is used up during the reaction. This is explained by the fact that catalyst are able to return to the original form once the reaction has gone to completion; this is the example of palladium in the hydrogenation or dehydrogenation of hydrocarbons depending on the case. Moreover, we know that the catalysts increase the reaction rate because they decrease the activation energy of the reaction and therefore the student observed such increase.
Best regards!
