Bases produce hydroxide ions, while acids produce hydrogen ions.
Bases have a pH of above 7, and are bitter and slippery.
Answer: <span>c. hydroxide ions</span>
Answer: B. It’s a dilute strong base.
Explanation:
1) Definition of acids and bases: as per Bronsted-Lowry model, an acid is a substance that donates hydrogen ions and a base is a substance that accepts hydrogen ions.
Ca(OH)₂ does not have hydrogen ions to donate, but it can accept hydrogen ions to form H₂O according to this equation: H⁺ + OH⁻ → H₂O.
Hence, Ca(OH)₂ is a base.
2) Definition of strong base: a strong base is a base that dissociates completely into metallic and hydroxide ions in aqueous solutions, while a weak base dissociates partially.
Hence, Ca(OH)₂ is a strong base.
3) Definition of dilute: it refers to a solution meaning that the substance is not pure and the concentration is low. Since, the solution the Ca(OH)₂ is 0.02 M means that it is dilute.
Therefore, we have found that the description of 0.02 M Ca(OH)₂ is that is is a dilute strong base (option B).
D. 8
You can predict it from it's name "Octet" means Eight. Atom must have that number of electron to have a stable structure!
Hope this helps!
Answer:
60 J
Explanation:
The law of conservation of energy states that energy is neither created nor destroyed, just converted into different forms. This means the total mechanical energy of the object at point A will be the same as the total mechanical energy at point B, and the question tells us the total of that mechanical energy is 150 J. Note we are assuming no energy is lost from the system as heat.
At point B, if the potential energy is 90 J, the remainder of the 150 J total must be kinetic energy. KE = 150 J - 90 J = 60 J.
