Alex3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Part A

Ag+ is the Lewis acid and NH3 is the Lewis base.

Part B

AlBr3 is the Lewis acid and NH3 is the Lewis base.

Part C

AlCl3 is the Lewis acid and Cl− is the Lewis base.

Explanation:

A Lewis acid is any specie that accepts a lone pair of electrons. Ag^+, AlBr3 and AlCl3 all accepted lone pairs of electrons according to the three chemical reaction equations shown. Hence, they are Lewis acids.

A Lewis base donates a lone pair of electrons. They include neutral molecules having lone pair of electrons such as NH3 or negative ions such as Cl- .

A piece of metal with a mass of 611 g is placed into a graduated cylinder that contains 25.1 ml of water, raising the water leve
jeka94

Mass of metal piece is 611 g and volume of graduated cylinder is 25.1 mL. When metal piece is placed in the graduated cylinder water level increases to 56.7 mL. The increase in volume is due to volume of metal piece that gets added to the volume of water.

Thus, volume of metal piece can be calculated by subtracting initial volume from the final one.

V_{metal}=V_{final}-V_{initial}=(56.7-25.1)mL=31.6 mL

Thus, volume of metal piece will be 31.6 mL. The mass of metal piece is given 611 g, density of metal can be calculated as follows:

d=\frac{m}{V}=\frac{611 g}{31.6 mL}=19.33 g/mL

Therefore, density of metal is 19.33 g/mL.
