Answer: is neither an acid nor a base
Explanation: Water is a universal solvent which means it can dissolve most of the substances in it.
Water has high thermal heat capacity , which means large heat is required to heat the water.
Water is not always pure as it gets contaminated by various pollutants present in the atmosphere such as gases, bacteria and suspended matter.
Water is an amphoteric substance which can act as both acid and base, thus can donate and acept [texH^+[/tex] ions.Thus it is neither an acid nor a base.

Here water is accepting a proton, thus it acts as base.

Here water is donating a proton, thus it acts as acid.
You must verify that the number of atoms of each type is equal on both sides of the chemical equation: same number of C, same number of H and same number of O on both sides.
<span>A. C4H6 + 5.5O2 ---> 4CO2 + 3H2O
element reactant side product side
C 4 4
H 6 3*2 = 6
O 5.5 * 2 = 11 4*2 + 3 = 11
Then, this equation is balanced.
</span>Do the same with the other equations if you want to verify that they are not balanced.
Answer: option A.
Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
When a beaker of ethanoic acid is placed in the refrigerator, its temperature drops and the vessel feels cool.
Now, when we mix ethanoic acid and sodium carbonate, an endothermic reaction occurs, fizzing is observed as carbon dioxide is given off and heat is lost to the surroundings causing the reaction vessel to feel cool to touch.
The difference between putting ethanoic acid in the refrigerator and adding sodium carbonate to the solution is that, in the former, no new substance is formed. The substance remains ethanoic acid when retrieved from the refrigerator. In the later case, new substances are formed. The substance is no more ethanoic acid because a chemical reaction has taken place.
Answer:
covalent bonds............
Answer:
carbon dioxide
Explanation:
carbon dioxide is the primary greenhouse gas produced by burning fossil fuels like coal and oil
