A base generally releases a hydroxide ion (OH-) when dissolved in water.
There are exceptions, such as ammonia NH3, which acts as a base but does not produce OH- ions. There are three definitions of acids and bases (Arrhenius, Bronsted-Lowry, and Lewis) and each one looks at acid/base characteristics differently. OH- donation is the Arrhenius definition.
Answer:
2.03 moles of Gold
Explanation:
Gold is one of the most precious metal metal used in many applications and mainly as a jewellery. In terms of purity it is categorized in Karats. 24 Karat is considered the purest Gold (i.e. 100 % Gold) while other Karats (14, 18, 22 e.t.c) are alloys with other metals and gyms.
Data Given:
Mass of Gold = 400 g
A.Mass of Gold = 196.97 g.mol⁻¹
Calculate Moles of Gold as,
Moles = Mass ÷ M.Mass
Putting values,
Moles = 400 g ÷ 196.97 g.mol⁻¹
Moles = 2.03 moles of Gold

Answer:
The molarity of urea in this solution is 6.39 M.
Explanation:
Molarity (M) is <em>the number of moles of solute in 1 L of solution</em>; that is
To calculate the molality, we need to know the number of moles of urea and the volume of solution in liters. We assume 100 grams of solution.
Our first step is to calculate the moles of urea in 100 grams of the solution,
using the molar mass a conversion factor. The total moles of 100g of a 37.2 percent by mass solution is
60.06 g/mol ÷ 37.2 g = 0.619 mol
Now we need to calculate the volume of 100 grams of solution, and we use density as a conversion factor.
1.032 g/mL ÷ 100 g = 96.9 mL
This solution contains 0.619 moles of urea in 96.9 mL of solution. To express it in molarity, we need to calculate the moles present in 1000 mL (1 L) of the solution.
0.619 mol/96.9 mL × 1000 mL= 6.39 M
Therefore, the molarity of the solution is 6.39 M.
When studying atoms, scientists can ignore <u>the Gravitational</u> force between charged particles that make up the atoms because it is many millions of times smaller than other forces in the atom.
Explanation:
Scientists can ignore the gravitational force because the gravitational force is considered to be negligible as compared to the other forces due to its smaller value.We all know that the gravitational force is directly proportional to the mass of an object which result in a small force value.When the value of this small force is compared to the value of the electrical force between protons and electrons in atoms the we can say that the electrical force is million times stronger than the gravitational force
Thus we can say that scientists can ignore <u>the Gravitational</u> force between charged particles that make up the atoms because it is many millions of times smaller than other forces in the atom.
