The most important or most likely characteristic would be that the acid is to require a special like container that would be corrosive; meaning it can hold and take the dissolving action of other substances.

The answer is: corrosive.

Acids are corrosive is correct. For example hydrochloric acid (HCl) will react with most metals and dissolve them.

For example, balanced chemical equation:

Zn(s) + 2HCl(aq) → ZnCl₂(aq) + H₂(g).

s is solid state.

aq is an aqueous solution (dissolved in water).

g is gas (hydrogen gas).

Hydrochloric acid dissociate in aqueous solution to form hydrogen ions (H⁺) and chloride anion (Cl⁻):

HCl(aq) → H⁺(aq) + Cl⁻(aq).

Which statement correctly identifies the nuclide that is most likely to be unstable and describes why?
iVinArrow [24]
The answer would be B.

U-238 has a n to p ration of 1.6:1. 146 neutrons and 92 protons.

It is actually the most commonly used isotope is reactors.

C-14 is also a radioactive isotope with 8 neutrons and 6 protons.

The usual and ideal n to p ratio is 1:1 such as C-12 or Mg-24

What is the molecular formula of the hydrocarbon whose molar mass is 536 g/mol and contains 89.55 w/w% carbon?
leonid [27]

Given the percentage composition of HC as C → 81.82 % and H → 18.18 %

So the ratio of number if atoms of C and H in its molecule can will be:

C : H = 81.82 12 : 18.18 1 C : H = 6.82 : 18.18 = 6.82 6.82 : 18.18 6.82 = 1 : 2.66 ≈ 3 : 8

So the Empirical Formula of hydrocarbon is:

C 3 H 8

As the mass of one litre of hydrocarbon is same as that of C O 2 The molar mass of the HC will be same as that of C O 2 i.e 44 g mol

Now let Molecular formula of the HC be ( C 3 H 8 ) n

Using molar mass of C and H the molar mass of the HC from its molecular formula is:

( 3 × 12 + 8 × 1 ) n = 44 n So 44 n = 44 ⇒ n = 1

Hence the molecular formula of HC is C 3 H 8

Does that help?

In a percentage composition investigation a compound was decomposed into its elements: 20.0 g of calcium, 6.0 g of carbon, and 2
inysia [295]

The percentage composition of this compound : 40%Ca, 12%C and 48%O

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

20.0 g of calcium,

6.0 g of carbon,

and 24.0 g of oxygen.

Required

The percentage composition

Solution

Total mass of compound :

=mass calcium + mass carbon + mass oxygen

=20 g + 6 g + 24 g

=50 g

Percentage composition :

  • Ca-calcium

\tt \dfrac{20}{50}\times 100\%=40\%

  • C-carbon

\tt \dfrac{6}{50}\times 100\%=12\%

  • O-oxygen

\tt \dfrac{24}{50}\times 100\%=48\%
