<span>The molten material then spreads out, pushing the older rock to both sides of the ridge. As the molten material cools, it forms a strip of solid rock in the center of the ridge. Then more molten material flows into the crack. The material splits apart the strip of solid rock that formed before, pushing it aside. Hope this helps! (:</span>
Answer: Potassium hydroxide, KOH, is considered a <u>BASE</u> in an acid-base reaction because it <u>ACCEPTS</u> a hydrogen ion from the other reactant.
According to Brønsted–Lowry acid–base theory, Base is a specie which accepts proton (H⁺) while, Acid is a specie which donate proton.
Bases may contain a negative charge or lone pair of electrons, while, Acids contain positive charge or a neutral atom with incomplete octet.
In given statement KOH is acting as a base because it contains a negatively charged hydroxyl group which can accept proton from a acid, i.e.
KOH → K⁺ + OH⁻
Reaction of OH⁻ with any acid,
K⁺ + OH⁻ + HCl → H₂O + KCl
2.55 moles H20 will be produced
The correct answer would be the second option. It would would need 2 moles of electrons to reduce one mole of bromine gas into two moles of the bromide ions. This is a reduction reaction. It would be written as:
Br2 = 2Br- + 2e-
