Answer:

D. It is limited to situations that involve aqueous solutions or specific compounds.

Explanation:

An Arrhenius acid is a substance that increases the concentration of H3O or H+ when dissolved in water. An Arrhenius base is a substance that increases the concentration of OH- when dissolved in water. These definitions tell us that D is indeed limited to situations that involve aqueous solutions or specific compounds, as aqueous means something that's dissolved in water.

A is wrong because the Bronsted-Lowry interpretation has a wider range of applications. Bronsted-Lowry acids and bases don't even need to be aqueous, so it is not limited to just aqueous solutions. They include any substance that can donate or accept a H+.

B is wrong because A is wrong. A and B basically say the same thing, that the Arrhenius interpretation has a wider range of applications than the Bronsted-Lowry interpretation.

C is wrong because the definition of an Arrhenius base is any substance that increases the concentration of OH-, or hydroxide ions. C completely counters this statement.

A sample of basalt has smaller crystals than a sample of granite. What is the most likely reason for this?

posledela

The most likely reason is that basalt is an extrusive rock, while granite is an intrusive rock. What this means is that basalt forms at the surface of the earth, where temperatures are cooler. Because of the cooler external temperature, basalt cools relatively quickly, and there isn't as much time for mineral crystals within the rock to align to form larger crystals while the rock is cooling. Granite, on the other hand, forms below the surface of the earth, where temperatures are significantly higher. Therefore, it doesn't cool as quickly, and the minerals within granite have more time to form larger crystals and the rock cools.

For a fixed amount of gas at a fixed volume, what will happen if the absolute temperature is doubled?

Firlakuza [10]

The answer to this question is: The pressure will be increased two times

The gas law includes an interaction of pressure(p), volume(V) and temperature(T). In this case, the gas has same amount and volume but then the temperature is doubled. The calculation would be:

p1 * V1 / T1= p2*V2 /T2
p1 * 1 / 1 = p2 * 1 / 2
p1 / (1/2)=p2
p2= 2* p1

A watt of is a unit of power equivalent to 1 joule per second (1 J/sec). In other words, a 60 watt light bulb consumes 60 joules

The time the chocolate bar could power the laptop in hours is 0.00233 hrs.

Since 200 Calories of chocolate bar were burned to power the 100 Watt laptop, we need to find the number of joules on energy in 200 calories of chocolate bar.

Knowing that 4.2 Joules = 1 Calorie, then

200 Calories = 200 × 1 calorie = 200 × 4.2 Joules = 840 Joules

Since the power required by the laptop is 100 W = 100 J/s and Power, P = energy/time

so, time = energy/power

So, the time for the laptop to use 840 J of energy from the chocolate bar at a rate or power of 100 W = 100 J/s is

time = 840 J ÷ 100 J/s = 8.4 s

So, the time in hours is 8.4 s ÷ 3600 s/1 h = 0.00233 hrs (since 1 hr = 3600 s)

So, the time the chocolate bar could power the laptop in hours is 0.00233 hrs.
