Latitude and Temperature
At the equator, the Sun's rays are most direct. This is where temperatures are highest. At higher latitudes, the Sun's rays are less direct. The farther an area is from the equator, the lower its temperature.
<span>Answer: Potassium hydroxide, KOH, is considered a BASE in an acid-base reaction because it ACCEPTS a hydrogen ion from the other reactant.
According to </span><span>Brønsted–Lowry acid–base theory, Base is a specie which accepts proton (H</span>⁺) while, Acid is a specie which donate proton.
Bases may contain a negative charge or lone pair of electrons, while, Acids contain positive charge or a neutral atom with incomplete octet.
In given statement KOH is acting as a base because it contains a negatively charged hydroxyl group which can accept proton from a acid, i.e.
KOH → K⁺ + OH⁻
Reaction of OH⁻ with any acid,
K⁺ + OH⁻ + HCl → H₂O + KCl
Answer: Yes
The antibonding orbital is empty. Thus, H2 is a stable molecule.
