Answer:
Oxalic Acid is and Arrhenius Acid.

Explanation:
According to Arrhenius Theory of acid and base, "Acid is any substance which when dissolved in water produces H⁺ Ions".

Therefore, Oxalic Acid is a diprotic substance, which is capable of donating protons in water. This acidity of oxalic acid can be dedicated to the stability of conjugate base, this stability comes from resonance of the negative charges on Oxalate ion. Below reaction shows the dissociation of Oxalic Acid into Protons and Oxalate Ion.

A piece of rubber has a mass of 495 kg and a volume of 355 liters. Will it float in water, which has a density of 1.0 g/mL?

hoa [83]

Compare the density of the rubber to water. If it is less that 1 g/mL then it floats in the water.

You must compare density in the same units. So convert to g/mL

$( \frac{495kg}{355L} )*( \frac{1000g}{1kg} )*( \frac{1L}{1000mL} ) = 1.39 g/mL$

The rubber does not float in water.

For each of the following units and concentration values, mention if they are parts per million (ppm), parts per billion (ppb) o

arsen [322]

Answer:

a) ppm

b) ppm

c) ppb

d) ppt

e) ppb

Explanation:

a) You know that 1000 g are 1 kg, and 1000 kg are 1 ton, so (1000)*(1000) g are 1 ton, so 1,000,000 grams are one ton.

b) 1000 mg are 1 g, and 1000 g are 1 liter, so 1,000,000 grams are one liter.

c) You know that 1000 ug are 1 mg, so with the b), we just need to multiply the answer by 1000, so 1,000,000,000 ug are 1 liter.

d) The same as c, 1000 ng are 1 mg. So we are talkinf of ppt.

e) 1000 mg are 1 g. And 1000 g are 1 kg, then 1000 kg are one ton. So 1,000,000,000 mg are one ton.

The by-product of the chlorination of an alkane is

Elanso [62]

The by-product of the chlorination of an alkane is <u>HCl</u>

Explanation:

Chlorination is the process of adding chlorine to drinking water to disinfect it and kill germs. Different processes can be used to achieve safe levels of chlorine in drinking water.
Chlorination of alkane gives a mixture of different products.
When consider mechanism of alkanes chlorination, free radicals are formed during the reaction to keep the continuous reaction.
Different alkyl chloride compounds, extended carbon chains compounds and HCl are formed as products in product mixture.
Chlorination byproducts, their toxicodynamics and removal from drinking water.
Halogenated trihalomethanes (THMs) and haloacetic acids (HAAs) are two major classes of disinfection byproducts (DBPs) commonly found in waters disinfected with chlorine
Chlorine is available as compressed elemental gas, sodium hypochlorite solution (NaOCl) or solid calcium hypochlorite (Ca(OCl)2
