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.

What state of matter has a defined volume and takes the shape of its container?

chubhunter [2.5K]

I believe that the answer is just liquids. While gases do take the shape of their containers, they don't have a defined volume. Solids don't take the shape of their containers, so the answer is liquids. I hope this helps!

At standard temperature and pressure, 1 mole of gas has what volume? A. 2.4 liters B. 22.4 liters C. 42.4 liters D. 76.6 liters

LekaFEV [45]

Answer: B.22.4 liters

Explanation:

When we attribute to a certain fixed mass of a given gas a fixed number of molecules. Avogadro considered that the mass of 36g of oxygen at any temperature and pressure would have a fixed number of molecules to which he called 1 mol of molecules. So by definition 1 mole of molecules would have a number of molecules equal to that present in 36 g of oxygen. The occupied volume by one mole of molecules at a given temperature and pressure is called molar volume and consists in 22,4 Liters. The molar volume matches the Avogadro Hypothesis (created in 1811 by Amedeo Avogadro), where equal volumes of different gases, at the same temperature and pressure, have even number of moles.

Which of the following phase changes only occurs in solids possessing vapor pressures above atmospheric pressure and at ambient

GuDViN [60]

Answer: The phase change process in which solids gets converted to gases is sublimation.

Explanation:

For the given options:

Option a: Condensation

It is a type of process in which phase change occurs from gaseous state to liquid state at constant temperature.

$Gas\rightleftharpoons Liquid$

Option b: Melting

It is a type of process in which phase change occurs from solid state to liquid state at constant temperature.

$Solid\rightleftharpoons Liquid$

Option c: Sublimation

It is a type of process in which phase change occurs from solid state to gaseous state without passing through the liquid state at constant temperature.

$Solid\rightleftharpoons Gas$

Option d: Deposition

It is a type of process in which phase change occurs from gaseous state to solid state without passing through the liquid state at constant temperature.

$Gas\rightleftharpoons Solid$
