Acids, when mixed with water, do which of the following... A Taking away protons from the water molecules B Giving away protons
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

Giving away protons to the water molecules

Explanation:

When acids are mixed with water the following reaction takes place:

H^+(aq) + H2O(l) ------> H3O^+(aq)

Hence when acids are added to water, acids donate a proton to water to form the oxonium ion H3O^+ by coordinate covalent bonding. Note that acids contain the hydrogen ion H^+

How many O atoms are in 4C₆H₁₂O₆
ipn [44]

Number of O atoms : 24

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

C₆H₁₂O₆ compound

Required

Number of atoms

Solution

A molecular formula  shows the number of atomic elements in compound.  

The empirical formula is the smallest comparison of the atoms

Glucose-C₆H₁₂O₆ is composed of 3 elements, namely C, H, and O.

The number of atoms in a compound can usually be seen from the subscript number after the atom and the reaction coefficient shows the number of molecules

So number of O atoms :

= 4 x 6 = 24 atoms
