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).

It is winter where jenna lives. Its been snowing all day, but now the snow has changed to sleet and then to freezing rain. What
Vladimir79 [104]

Hi!

Answer:

The change in temperature.

Explanation:

Snow forms at 0 °C, when water vapor converts directly into solid ice crystals. Sleet forms when raindrops fall through a layer of air colder than 0 °C. This means that from the time it was snowing to the time it started sleeting the air has gotten warmer but one layer of air stayed cold, hence the formation of sleet. Freezing rain is rain that freezes when it hits a cold surface. This means that from the time it was sleeting to the time there was freezing rain the air had completely warmed and is now above 0 °C but the ground and all other surfaces are still cold.

I hope this helps, as this happens all the time where I live! :)

What do ionic compounds form
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

By the result of the formation of positive and negative ions, Ionic compounds are formed.

Explanation:

Electrons are actually transferred from one atom to another to form rare gas electron structures for each ion. The atom which forms a positive ion loses electrons to the atom which gains electrons to form a negative ion. A compound is not stable unless the number of electrons which are lost and gained are equal

atmospheric pressure at elevations of 8000 feet averages about 0.72 atmospheres. Would a cabin pressurized at 500 mm hg meet fed
NeTakaya

Answer:

Yes, but it must be kept at that value and do not let it to decrease more.

Explanation:

Hello.

In this case, in order to substantiate whether the cabin meet the federal standards, we need to convert the 500 mmHg to atm and compare the result with 0.72 atm by knowing that 1 atm equals 760 mmHg:

500mmHg*\frac{1atm}{760mmHg} \\\\=0.66atm

Thus, since 0.66 atm is 0.06 atm away from the federal standard we can infer that it may meet the federal standard, however, it would not be recommended to let the pressure decrease more than that.
