It depends on what the reaction is. Usually H2O is neutral. If in the reaction, it accepts proton(H+), it is base. If it donors the proton(H+), it is acid. So it based on what reaction it is.

Answer: both an acid and base

Explanation: By Bronsted-Lowery acid base theory: proton Donor is acid and proton Acceptor is base.

Here H2O by donating the proton acts as acid.

H2O ------> H^+ + OH^-

And by accepting the proton acts as base

H2O + H+ --------> H3O+

1. Which of the following statements is a consequence of the equation E=MC2
finlep [7]

Answer:

D. All of the above​

Explanation:

E = MC² is a common equation in physics.

E is energy

M is mass

C is the speed of light

The law was stated by Albert Einstein.

  • From this law, it was shown that energy is released when matter is destroyed.
  • Mass and energy are equivalent as seen in nuclear reactions where mass is converted to energy.
  • Mass and energy is usually conserved in any process and this is a subtle modification of the law of conservation of matter and energy.
  • Most of these postulates apply to nuclear reactions which generally do not follow some precepts of chemical laws.

The Charles Zeppelin, a fictional airship, is filled with 2.16 x 105 liters of hydrogen gas (H2). On the ground, the airship’s t
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

V2 = 3.11 x 105 liters

Explanation:

Initial Volume, V1 = 2.16 x 105 liters

Initial Temperature, T1 = 295 K

Final Temperature, T2 = 425 K

Final Volume, V2 = ?

These quantities are related by charle's law and the equation of the law is given as;

V1 / T1  =  V2 / T2

V2 = T2 * V1 / T1

V2 = 425 * 2.16 x 105 / 295

V2 = 3.11 x 105 liters

That means a white dwarf is 200,000 times as dense.

Explanation:

they are cold

they are about the size of Earth
