An acid is a substance that increases the concentration of H3O+ ions in solution. Look at the reaction below of phenol (C6H5OH)

with water: Upper C subscript 6 upper H subscript 5 upper o upper H (a q) plus upper H subscript 2 upper O (l) right arrow upper C subscript 6 upper H subscript 5 upper O superscript minus (a q) plus upper H subscript 3 upper O superscript plus (a q). Which reactant acts as an acid by contributing a H+ ion to create H3O+ in the chemical equation? C6H5OH(aq) H2O(l) C6H5O–(aq) H3O+(aq)

Answer:

The reactant that acts as an acid, by contributing an H⁺ ion to create H3O+ in the chemical equation is C₆H₅OH.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to Brønstend-Lowry, an acid is a substance that transfer a proton (hydrogen cation, H⁺) to a base, forming a base conjugate for the first and an acid conjugate for the second.      

From the following reaction:

C₆H₅OH(aq) + H₂O(l)  →  C₆H₅O⁻(aq) + H₃O⁺(aq)

   

We have that the C₆H₅OH transfer a proton to the water to form its conjugate base C₆H₅O⁻ and the conjugate acid of water H₃O⁺. Hence, the C₆H₅OH is the acid and the water is the base.

Therefore, the reactant that acts as an acid, by contributing an H⁺ ion to create H3O+ in the chemical equation is C₆H₅OH.

I hope it helps you!

What is the cross section shown below?
goldenfox [79]
<h3>Answer: Choice A) circle</h3>

Explanation:

Imagine that white rectangle as a blade that cuts the cylinder as the diagram shows. If you pull the top cylinder off and examine the bottom of that upper piece, then you'll see a circle forms. It's congruent to the circular face of the original cylinder. This is because the cutting plane is parallel to both base faces of the cylinder. Any sort of tilt will make an ellipse form. Keep in mind that any circle is an ellipse, but not vice versa.

Another example of a cross section: cut an orange along its center and notice that a circle (more or less) forms showing the inner part of the orange.

Yet another example of a cross section: Imagine an egyptian pyramid cut from the top most point on downward such that you vertically slice it in half. If you pull away one half, you should see a triangular cross section forms.

Answer:

When you deposit money in a bank, the bank usually pays you for the use of your money. When you take out a loan from a bank, you have to pay the bank for the use of their money. In both cases, the money paid is called the interest. It is usually expressed as a percent. Here we shall look at a formula for simple interest.
