Answer : The correct options is, (C) They conduct an electric current in a solution.

Explanation :

Acid : It is a substance that has ability of donating proton or hydrogen ion, $H^+$ .

The properties of an acid are :

Acids are sour in taste.
The texture of an acid solution is sticky.
It changes the color of the litmus paper blue to red.
It react with a metal to give compound and hydrogen gas.
They do not conduct an electric current in a solution.

Base : It is a substance that has ability of donating hydroxide ion, $OH^-$ .

The properties of an base are :

Base are bitter in taste.
The texture of an base solution is slippery.
It changes the color of the litmus paper red to blue.
It does not react with a metal.
They conduct an electric current in a solution.

As we know that, a base such as NaOH will dissociate in water to form sodium ion and hydroxide ion. So, the ions of an aqueous solution of base will conduct electricity. That means the base conduct an electric current in a solution.

In acid, the concentration of hydrogen ion is greater than the hydroxide ion but in base the concentration of hydroxide ion is more than the hydrogen ion.

Hence, the correct options is, (C) They conduct an electric current in a solution.

The formula is used to calculate the yield of a reaction.

frosja888 [35]

The theoretical yield for a reaction is calculated based on the limiting reagent. This allows researchers to determine how much product can actually be formed based on the reagents present at the beginning of the reaction. The actual yield will never be 100 percent due to limitations.

If a sample of air initially occupies 240L at 2 atm how much pressure is required to compress it to 20L at constant temperature

IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

24 atm.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial volume (V₁) = 240 L

Initial pressure (P₁) = 2 atm

Final volume (V₂) = 20 L

Temperature = constant

Final pressure (P₂) =?

The final pressure required, can be obtained by using the Boyle's law equation as shown below:

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

2 × 240 = P₂ × 20

480 = P₂ × 20

Divide both side by 20

P₂ = 480 / 20

P₂ = 24 atm

Thus, the final pressure required is 24 atm.

<h3>How are elements named?</h3>

Elements have been given names based on a variety of factors, including their characteristics, the compound or ore from which they were extracted, the method by which they were found or acquired, mythical characters, locations, and well-known individuals. Some components have names that are descriptive and are based on one of their attributes.

The International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry chooses the official element names and symbols (IUPAC). However, different nations frequently use similar names and symbols for elements. Official names and symbols for elements are not given until after their discovery has been confirmed. The discoverer may then suggest a name and a symbol.

There are name standards for several element groupings. Names of halogens end in -ine. All noble gas names, save helium, end in -on. The names of most other elements finish with -ium.

If a mixture looks smooth and the same throughout it is probably what

gulaghasi [49]

Answer:
If a mixture looks smooth and the same throughout it is probably Homogeneous.

Explanation:
Mixture is the combination of different compounds which are unreactive to each other.

Mixture are classified as ...

Solutions; in which the mixed compounds are thoroughly mixed and cannot be distinguished from each other and are said to be homogeneous. In solutions the size of solute is very small (i.e. Less than 1 nm).

Colloids; in which the solute is homogeneous visually but heterogeneous microscopically. The size of particles in this case is between 1 nm to 1 μm.

Suspensions; in which the mixture is heterogeneous, the particle size is greater than 1 μm and settles down (precipitation) under the influence of gravity.
