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.

In this experiment you will create solutions with different ratios of ethanol and water. What is the mole fraction of ethanol wh

Andrej [43]

Answer:

The mole fraction of ethanol is 0.6. A 10 mL volumetric pipette must be used for to measure the 10 mL of ethanol. The vessel should be clean and purged.

Explanation:

For calculating mole fraction of ethanol, the amount of moles ethanol must be calculated. Using ethanol density (0.778 g/mL), 10 mL of ethanol equals to 7.89 g of ethanol and in turn 0.17 moles of ethanol. The same way for calculate the amount of water moles (ethanol density=0.997 g/mL). 2 mL of water correspond to 0.11. The total moles are: 0.17+0.11=0.28. Mole fraction alcohol is: 0.17/0.28=0.6

1. To form a solution, ________.

adoni [48]

1.one substance must dissolve another : the solvent breaks the the solute causing it to dissociate into the solvent it can be both solids or gases that dissolve in the solute

2.the melting point will be higher than 100 degrees as the salt causes the solution to gain a higher melting point

3.either released or absorbed : energy is required to dissolve the solute but the solute may also release energy

4.the salt dissolved most quickly in the warm water : as there is more energy for the solute to dissolve

hope that helps

Ch4+202==>c02+302 what type of chemical reaction

n200080 [17]

Answer:

First of all, the equation is typed wrong so it can easily be misinterpreted

Ethane (CH4) + Oxygen gas (O2) would give us Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and WATER (H2O)

CH4 + 2O2 -----> CO2 + 2H2O

And this is a combustion reaction since we have oxygen as a reactant and carbon dioxide and water as products.

Calculate the number of moles of iodine in 7.68×10^25 molecules of I2

Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

<h2>127.57 moles</h2>

Explanation:

To find the number of moles in a substance given it's number of entities we use the formula

$n = \frac{N}{L} \\$

where n is the number of moles

N is the number of entities

L is the Avogadro's constant which is

6.02 × 10²³ entities

From the question we have

$n = \frac{7.68 \times {10}^{25} }{6.02 \times {10}^{23} } \\ = 127.574750...$

We have the final answer as

<h3>127.57 moles</h3>

Hope this helps you
