What are two characteristics for bases.

Classify each of the following as a Strong acid (sa) or a Weak acid (wa) and indicate how each should be written in aqueous solu

shusha [124]

Answer:

A. 1. Strong acid (sa): Hydrobromic acid: HBr (aq)

2. Strong acid (sa); Hydrochloric acid: HCl (aq)

3. Weak acid (wa); Carbonic acid: H₂CO₃ (aq)

B. H+ (aq) + OH- (aq) ----> H₂O (l)

Explanation:

Strong acids are which ionize completely in aqueous solution into hydrogen ions and the corresponding anion. Examples of strong acids include hydrobromic acid, hydrochloric acid, tetraoxosulfate (vi) acid.

The ionization of hdyrobromic and hydrochloric acids in aqueous solution is given below:

1. Hydrobromic acid: HBr (aq) ----> H+ (aq) + Br- (aq)

Hydrobromic acid in aqueous solution ionizes completely into hydrogen ions and bromide ions

2. Hydrochloric acid: HCl (aq) ----> H+ (aq) + Cl- (aq)

Hydrochloric acid in aqueous solution ionizes completely into hydrogen ions and chloride ions

Weak acids are acids which ionizes only partially in aqueous solutions to hydrogen ions and the corresponding anions. Examples of weak acids are carbonic acid and ethanoic acid. The ionization of carbonic acid in aqueous solution is shown below:

3. Carbonic acid: H₂CO₃ (aq) ⇄ 2 H+ (aq) + CO₃²- (aq)

Carbonic acid ionizes partially only to give hydrogen ions and trioxocarbonate (iv) ions. The unionized acid exists in equilibrium with the ions produced by the partial ionization of the acid.

Part B:

The reaction between hydrochloric acid and barium hydroxide is a neutralization reaction producing barium chloride salt and water.

The net ionic equation of the neutralization reaction is given below :

H+ (aq) + OH- (aq) ----> H₂O (l)

Determine whether the following reaction is a Lewis acid/base reaction and if so, what is the Lewis acid: Fe3+(aq) + 6 CN−(aq) →

Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer: It is a Lewis acid/base reaction, and $Fe^{3+}$ is the Lewis acid.

Explanation:

According to the Lewis concept, an acid is defined as a substance that accepts electron pairs and base is defined as a substance which donates electron pairs.

$Fe^{3+}$ can readily accept electrons and thus act as a lewis acid which is short of electrons.

$CN^-$ can readily lose electrons and thus act as a lewis base which has excess of electrons.

It is a Lewis acid/base reaction, and $Fe^{3+}$ is the Lewis acid.

What is meant by "elastic collisions"?

Leokris [45]

Elastic collisions meant that there will be no change in the total momentum of the system and surrounding after collision.

Explanation:

Collision is the process where two or more bodies hit each other. So when they hit each other, transfer of energy will be occurring between them. In other words, the momentum can be changed after the collision. There are two kinds of collision.

elastic collision
inelastic collision

The elastic collision are those which will not undergo any change in the total momentum after collision. This means that the sum of momentum of the objects before collision will be equal to the sum of momentum of the objects after collision. Thus, there will be no change in the total momentum of the object after collision in case of elastic collision.

(Pleaseeee help me) List 3 things you should talk about in a good conclusion?

melamori03 [73]

1) It recaps where you’ve been.
Throughout your essay, you’ve shared experiences, skills and knowledge that have driven you toward who you are today. In your conclusion, remind the admissions team about how all those different elements work in combination to make you a unique candidate for their program.
2) It recaps where you are.
This is an aspect applicants often forget to include. You are at a crucial junction between the past and the future, and this program you’re applying to is the bridge. Recap why this program is an important stepping stone in your career path and how it’s a good fit for you personally.
3) It recaps where you are going.
Most importantly, you must tell the admissions team what your long-term career goal is. The more specific you can be, the better (even if you aren’t 100% sure, it’s best to come off as confident that you know what you want!). For example, rather than just recapping that you want to become a doctor, you can share additional sub-goals, such as wanting to be a doctor who works in low-income, inner city hospitals since you volunteered at those types of facilities before. Or perhaps you plan to go back to the country where you grew up and work as a surgeon there since they are in such short supply.
Bring It Together
Once we bring all three of those elements together, you can see how they link together to form one, solid conclusion. Ideally, your conclusion should be about 4-6 sentences long — not too short but not a long ramble. Below is an example showing how fusing the past (1), present (2) and future (3) together can end your essay on a strong note.
