2.B. Describe the difference between a reaction that occurs spontaneously and one that does not. Spontaneous chemical reactions release energy and use that energy to power itself; non-spontaneous chemical reactions need to absorb energy, which they can't absorb their own energy that they don't even have.
Circulating round the nucleus are the electrons in various orbits of different energy levels. Electrons are negatively charged and represented by the symbol 'e'. In the given image the number of protons are -6. Hence the element in question is Carbon as Carbon has the atomic number 6.
Bases
A base is a substance that dissociates into more hydroxide ions (-OH-) when dissolved in water. Bases are also good proton acceptors. Bases, therefore, reduce the number of H+ and increase OH- hence raising the pH of the solution.
B(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇌ BH⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq)
Explanation:
Other properties of bases is that they are bitter to the taste and they feel slippery when touched. Strong bases are nonthlese very corrosive like acids. Bases turn red litmus paper blue. Most alkali hydroxides such as NaOH are bases.
