Answer:
1. CO₃⁻² + H₂O ⇄ HCO₃⁻ + OH⁻
2. HCO₃⁻ + H₂O ⇄ H₂CO₃ + OH⁻
3. H₂CO₃ → H₂O + CO₂
Basic solution
Explanation:
Brønsted Lowry theory:
Acid → Release a proton
Base → Accept a proton
1. CO₃⁻² + H₂O ⇄ HCO₃⁻ + OH⁻
Carbonate takes a proton from the water
2. HCO₃⁻ + H₂O ⇄ H₂CO₃ + OH⁻
Bicarbonate takesa proton from the water to produce carbonic acid.
3. H₂CO₃ → H₂O + CO₂
Carbonate acid decomposes into CO₂ and H₂O
In the first reaction, when the carbonate takes a proton from the water, water releases OH⁻, so the solution is basic.

Maybe b might be the answer
Hi,
The answer is group 18, which contains the noble gases. All noble gases have 8 valence electrons except for helium that has 2.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
C₁₀H₁₂
Explanation:
90.8% of basketane (Hydrocarbon, contains only C and H) is Carbon, and 100-90.8 = 9.2% of the mass is hydrogen.
The molar mass is between 130-140g/mol, That means the moles of Carbon (Using its molar mass, 12.01g/mol) that are in basketane are between:
140g/mol /12.01g/mol *90.8%= 10.58 moles of C.
130g/mol / 12.01g/mol *90.8%= 9.83 moles of C.
As the moles of carbon must be given in a whole number, There are 10 moles of Carbon.
10 moles C * (12.01g / mol) = 120.1g/mol that are 90.8% of the molar mass. Molar mass of basketane is:
100% * (120.1g/mol / 90.8%) =
132.3g/mol.
The part of the molar mass due hydrogen must be:
132.3 g/mol - 120.1g/mol = 12.2 g/mol
As molar mass of hydrogen is 1g/mol, the moles of hydrogen are 12
And molecular formula is:
