Answer:

Water acts as a Brønsted-Lowry Base.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, for the theories describing acids, we say that a Brønsted-Lowry Acid is such substance which is able to donate a H⁺ and a Brønsted-Lowry base is such substance which is able to accept a donated H⁺.

In such a way, since hydronium (H₃O⁺) is a product, meaning that water received one H⁺, we conclude water is acting as a Brønsted-Lowry base. Moreover, ammonium ion acts as Brønsted-Lowry Acid.

Best regards.

A sample of nitrogen gas has a volume of 478 cm3 and a pressure of 104.1 kPa. What volume would the gas occupy at 88.2 kPa if th
nadezda [96]

<span>1.    </span>To solve this we assume that the gas is an ideal gas. Then, we can use the ideal gas equation which is expressed as PV = nRT. At a constant temperature and number of moles of the gas the product of PV is equal to some constant. At another set of condition of temperature, the constant is still the same. Calculations are as follows:

P1V1 =P2V2

V2 = P1 x V1 / P2

 V2 = 104.1 x 478 / 88.2

2. Would you measure a pencil in meters? A hallway in millimeters? Discuss
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

Measuring a pencil in meters would be very difficult, as a single meter is much longer than one pencil. Also, measuring a hallway in millimeters would be very difficult considering how small millimeters are in comparison to a hallway. However, if you switch these two then they would work very well.

Which would exert more pressure on the floor, a 100kg man wearing snow shoes or a 60kg woman wearing high heels? PLEASE EXPLAIN
iris [78.8K]

Pressure can be defined as the force acting on a perpendicular surface per unit area.

Force exerted by a man of mass 100 kg wearing snow shoes = m.a

Where m = mass of the man = 100 kg

a = acceleration due to gravity= 9.8 m/s^{2}

Force exerted by the man of mass 100 kg = 100 kg(9.8 m/s^{2}) = 980 N

Force exerted by woman of mass 60 kg = 60 kg(9.8 m/s^{2}) = 588 N

Force exerted by 100 kg man is greater than that exerted as 60 kg woman. The area on which this force is acting determines the pressure. Pressure is inversely proportional to the area on which the force acts. Therefore, the pressure exerted by 100 kg man wearing snow shoes is less than the pressure exerted by a 60 kg woman woman wearing high heels as the force acts over a larger area when the man wears snow shoes when compared to the force exerted over a smaller area in case of the woman wearing high heels.
