Maybe to not get rained on.
Hahhahahaha I ain't sure tho
Answer; If a chemical has a pH of 3, how could you change its pH value to be more basic? Adding water to a chemical will dilute the acid, thus lowering the pH value to more basic.
Answer:
(C) Acetylene (ethyne) can be converted to the acetylide anion by treating with a strong base such as CH₃Li.
Explanation:
Acetylene (C₂H₂) can be converted to the acetylide anion (C₂⁻²) when treated with a base because it will donate protons (2H⁺). So it will be a neutralization reaction. NaNH₂ and NaOH are strong bases because they are good electrons donators ( NaNH₂ has pair of electrons on N, and NaOH has the group OH⁻), but CH₃Li has no pair of electrons to donate, so it's not a strong base.
I believe the answer is A. However, I would double check the formula.
In an exothermic reaction, the water will increase in temperature in a calorimeter. An exothermic reaction is a reaction where heat is one of the products or heat is being released from it which will cause for the temperature inside the calorimeter to increase.
