Bases are iconic compounds that produce negative hydroxide ions (OH-) when dissolved in water. Bases taste bitter, feel slippery, and conduct electricity when dissolved in water.... Bases turn red litmus paper blue. The strength of bases is measured on the pH scale.

sammy [17]

Answer:

Ba(OH)₂ + 2 HBr ⇒ BaBr₂ + 2 H₂O

Explanation:

We have the products of a reaction and we have to predict the reactants. Since the products are binary salt and water, this must be a neutralization reaction. In neutralizations, acids react with bases. The acid that gives place to Br⁻ is HBr, while the base the gives place to Ba²⁺ is Ba(OH)₂. The balanced chemical equation is:

Ba(OH)₂ + 2 HBr ⇒ BaBr₂ + 2 H₂O

A sample of an unknown compound with a mass of 0.847 g has the following composition: 50.51 % fluorine and 49.49 % iron. When th
sergejj [24]

Answer: 0,4278g of F and 0,4191g of Fe

Explanation: it's possible to calculate the mass of each element by multiplying the percentage (decimal) of the element by the mass of the compound.

For Fluorine (F)

0,847g * 0,5051 = 0,4278g of F

For iron (Fe)

0,847 * 0,4949 = 0,4191g of Fe

This is determined because even when the compound is decomposed, due to conservative law of mass, the decomposition process do not affect the amount of matter, so the mass of the elements remain even if they are separated from the original molecule.

At the end, the sum of the elements masses should be the total mass of the compound.

What is the main cause of increased erosion
anyanavicka [17]
The main cause of increased erosion is natural elements like rain, wind and ice. Erosion is the process by which the surface of the Earth gets worn down. 
Soil erosion is also a big thing, it is caused by mostly rain that contributes to floods. This stuff is bad for farmers because they do a lot of farming and with erosion increasing the growing crops are decreasing because of erosion.
