The reason how scientists can get energy from plants is because the plants store energy that can be released by heat.

This is an incomplete question, here is a complete question.

Determine which of the acids are Arrhenius acids, Brønsted–Lowry acids, and Lewis acids. It is possible for an acid to be of more than one type. Which acids are Arrhenius acids?

AlCl₃ (aq)

BCl₃ (aq)

HCl (aq)

Answer :

HCl is an Arrhenius acid and Bronsted Lowry acid

AlCl₃ is a Lewis-acid

BCl₃ is a Lewis-acid

Explanation :

According to Arrhenius concept, a base is defined as a substance which donates hydroxide ions $(OH^-)$ when dissolved in water and an acid is defined as a substance which donates hydronium ions $(H_3O^+)$ in water.

According to the Bronsted Lowry conjugate acid-base theory, an acid is defined as a substance which donates protons and a base is defined as a substance which accepts protons.

According to the Lewis concept, an acid is defined as a substance that accepts electron pairs and base is defined as a substance which donates electron pairs.

From this we conclude that:

HCl is an Arrhenius acid because it donates hydrogen ion and also Bronsted Lowry acid because it also donate protons.

AlCl₃ is a Lewis-acid because it is a electron deficient and accept lone pair of elections.

BCl₃ is a Lewis-acid because it is a electron deficient and accept lone pair of elections.

A student mixes four reagents together, thinking that the solutions will neutralize each other. The solutions mixed together are

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer: Resulting solution will not be neutral because the moles of $OH^-$ ions is greater. The remaining concentration of $[OH^-]$ ions =0.0058 M.

Explanation:

Given,

[HCl]=0.100 M

$[HNO_3]$ = 0.200 M

$[Ca(OH)_2]$ =0.0100 M

[RbOH] =0.100 M

Few steps are involved:

Step 1: Calculating the total moles of $H^+$ ion from both the acids

moles of $H^+$ in HCl

$HCl\rightarrow {H^+}+Cl^-$

if 1 L of $HCl$ solution =0.100 moles of HCl

then 0.05L of HCl solution= 0.05 $\times$ 0.1 moles= 0.005 moles (1L=1000mL)

moles of $H^+$ in HCl = 0.005 moles

Similarliy

moles of $H^+$ in $HNO_3$

$HNO_3\rightarrow H^++NO_3^-}$

If 1L of $HNO_3$ solution= 0.200 moles

Then 0.1L of $HNO_3$ solution= 0.1 $\times$ 0.200 moles= 0.02 moles

moles of $H^+$ in $HNO_3$ =0.02 moles

so, Total moles of $H^+$ ions = 0.005+0.02= 0.025 moles .....(1)

Step 2: Calculating the total moles of $[OH^-]$ ion from both the bases

Moles of $OH^-\text{ in }Ca(OH)_2$

$Ca(OH)_2\rightarrow Ca^2{+}+2OH^-$

1 L of $Ca(OH)_2$ = 0.0100 moles

Then in 0.5 L $Ca(OH)_2$ solution = 0.5 $\times$ 0.0100 moles = 0.005 moles

$Ca(OH)_2$ produces two moles of $OH^-$ ions

moles of $OH^-$ = 0.005 $\times$ 2= 0.01 moles

Moles of $OH^-$ in $RbOH$

$RbOH\rightarrow Rb^++OH^-$

1 L of RbOH= 0.100 moles

then 0.2 [RbOH] solution= 0.2 $\times$ 0.100 moles = 0.02 moles

Moles of $OH^-$ = 0.02 moles

so,Total moles of $OH^-$ ions = 0.01 + 0.02=0.030 moles ....(2)

Step 3: Comparing the moles of both $H^+\text{ and }OH^-$ ions

One mole of $H^+$ ions will combine with one mole of $OH^-$ ions, so

Total moles of $H^+$ ions = 0.005+0.02= 0.025 moles....(1)

Total moles of $OH^-$ ions = 0.01 + 0.02=0.030 moles.....(2)

For a solution to be neutral, we have

Total moles of $H^+$ ions = total moles of $OH^-$ ions

0.025 moles $H^+$ will neutralize the 0.025 moles of $OH^-$

Moles of $OH^-$ ions is in excess (from 1 and 2)

The remaining moles of $OH^-$ will be = 0.030 - 0.025 = 0.005 moles

So,The resulting solution will not be neutral.

Remaining Concentration of $OH^-$ ions = $\frac{\text{Moles remaining}}{\text{Total volume}}$

$[OH^-]=\frac{0.005}{0.85}=0.0058M$

Does every change from one form of energy to another form?

Liula [17]

Yes. The law of conservation of energy says that energy cannot be created, nor destroyed, only transformed. An example of this change is a flashlight. It changes from electrical energy to light energy. :D
