I was wondering what the answer for this question would be ?

Chemistry

Answer:

C. H2O is the base and H3O+ is the conjugate acid

Explanation:

According to Bronsted-Lowry acid-base theory, an acid is a substance that loses an hydrogen ion or proton (H+) while a base is a substance that gains an hydrogen ion (H+) or proton. Furthermore, this theory states that, the molecule formed when an acid donates its proton is called the CONJUGATE BASE, while the molecule formed when the base accepts proton is called CONJUGATE ACID.

In this question, the following equation is given:

NH4+(aq) + H2O(aq) ⇌NH3(aq) + H3O+ (aq)

Water (H2O) is the base in this equation because according to Bronsted-Lowry acid-base theory, it accepts an hydrogen ion (H+) while hydroxonium ion (H3O+) is the conjugate acid.

Select the correct answer. When an atom in a reactant loses electrons, what happens to its oxidation number? A. Its oxidation nu
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

C. Its oxidation number increases.

Explanation:

  • <em><u>Oxidation is defined as the loss of electrons by an atom while reduction is the gain of electrons by an atom</u></em>.
  • Atoms of elements have an oxidation number of Zero in their elemental state.
  • When an atom looses electrons it undergoes oxidation and its oxidation number increases.
  • For example, <em><u>an atom of sodium (Na) at its elemental state has an oxidation number of 0. When the sodium atom looses an electrons it becomes a cation, Na+, with an oxidation number of +1 , the loss of electron shows an increase in oxidation number from 0 to +1.</u></em>

Carbon-14 has a half-life of 5,730 years. If scientists discover a mummified Cro-Magnon specimen, they will first want to determ
ryzh [129]

Answer:

the specimen has 11460 years old

Explanation:

if the live sample has as initial amount of Yo C14, the dead sample will have 0.25Yo of C14.

the rate of decay of radiactive matter over time is

  • Y(t) = Yo * e (( - t * Ln2 ) / T)

∴ Y(t) = 0.25Yo;  T = 5730

⇒ 0.25Yo = Yo * e (( - t * Ln2 ) / 5730 )

⇒ 0.25 = e (( - t * Ln2 ) / 5730 )

⇒ Ln(0.25) = ( -  t * Ln2 ) / 5730

⇒ - 7943.466 = - t * Ln2

⇒ 7943.466 / Ln2 = t

⇒ t = 11460 year
