Answer:
The balanced chemical equation: NH₃ + 2 HF → NH₄⁺ + HF₂⁻
Explanation:
According to the Brønsted–Lowry acid–base theory, the acid- base reaction is a type of chemical reaction between the acid and base to give a conjugate acid and a conjugate base.
In this reaction, a Brønsted–Lowry acid loses a proton to form a conjugate base. Whereas, a Brønsted–Lowry base accepts a proton to form a conjugate acid.
Acid + Base ⇌ Conjugate Base + Conjugate Acid
The acid dissociation constant (Kₐ) <em>signifies the acidic strength of a chemical species.</em>
∵ pKₐ = - log Kₐ
Thus for a strong acid, Kₐ value is large and pKₐ value is small.
pKₐ (HF) = 3.2 → strong acid
pKₐ (NH₃) = 38 → weak acid
<u>The chemical reaction involved in the dissolution process:</u>
NH₃ + 2 HF → NH₄⁺ + HF₂⁻
In this acid-base reaction, the acid HF reacts with NH₃ base to give the conjugate base HF₂⁻ and conjugate acid NH₄⁺.
<u>HF (acid) donates a proton to form the conjugate base, HF₂⁻ ion. NH₃ (base) accepts a proton to form the conjugate acid. </u>
Answer:
Yes
Explanation:
A supercritical fluid has good properties for both liquid and as for extraction properties, the advantages then include:
- The fact that it has a lower viscosity than liquid CO2 allowing it to move through and around coffee beans more thoroughly with creating back pressure
- Its density is comparable to that of liquid CO2 meaning there is much CO2 per litre as there is liquid form making it more efficient
- It has a higher diffusivity than liquid CO2 which aids with penetration of the coffee beans on a molecular level
This experiment would not work with tea leaves because they also contain caffeine
Answer:
The mass of a pure substance represents a specific number of pure substance 'molecules', as defined by molecular weight. The relative atomic mass (atomic weight) in grams/mole (g/mol) is the molar mass of a substance, which means it is the mass of one mole of that substance.

Answer:
Thus, as both an amphoteric compound and the most common liquid on Earth, it follows that water is both the most common acid as well as the most common base on planet Earth
The correct answer is False.
