Can something be an acid and a base? Why and why not​

The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

The oxide of element X is reduced by heating with carbon.

Element X does not react with cold water, steam or dilute hydrochloric acid.

What is X?

A copper

B iron

C magnesium

D zinc

Answer:

Copper

Explanation:

Copper is below hydrogen in the activity series of metals. Remember that the activity series of metals is an arrangement of metals in order of decreasing reactivity from most reactive to least reactive. The metals at the head of the series are highly reactive, metals at the middle of the series are moderately reactive while metals below hydrogen in the series are least reactive.

Copper being below hydrogen in the series cannot displace it from water (cold or steam) or from dilute acid solutions. Copper can be reduced by heating it with carbon (thermal reduction).

A chemical  reaction involves the interaction of reactants. The substance X ,must be an acid and in this case is CH3COOH

In chemistry, a reaction is said to occur when substances interact in such a way that other new substances are formed.

Now let us look at the particular reaction; NaOH + X ----> NaCH3COO + H2O. The substance X must be an acid. Hence, the most likely susbstance is CH3COOH.

Answer:

Milk of Magnesia would consume the most stomach acid at almost 3 times the amount as baking soda.

Explanation:

Baking Soda = NaHCO3(s)+HCl(aq)=H20(l)+CO2(g)

NaHCO3 Molar mass of 84.007 g/mol

0.012 Moles of NaHCO3 and since an equal ratio of HCl is required

we therefore neutralize 0.012 Moles of HCl

Milk of magnesia = Mg(OH)2(s)+2HCl(aq)=2H20(l)+MgCl2(aq)

Mg(OH)2(s) Molar mass: 58.3197 g/mol

0.017 Moles of Mg(OH)2 and the ratio is 2:1, so 2 moles for each 1 mole of Mg(OH)2, so we need 0.034 Moles of HCl

Answer:

Basis and basic​ are two different words.

In English, Basis is used as a noun while basic is used as an adjective. Basis term refers as the base or starting point of any discussion.

For example: Bread is a basic ingredient of cake.

                      On the basis of Mendel's hypothesis.

In chemistry, Basis set is used as a set of functions that represent the electronic wave function in the density-functional theory which forms an  algebraic equations that can be easily implemented on a computer.

While Basic term is used for substances that can accept a hydrogen ion (H+) from another substance and have pH above 7. such as sodium.

So, It is not important that both the terms, basis and basic change their English meaning if used in chemistry, they both can be used with English meaning in chemistry as well. Bases and basic,​ both the terms can be used as either English or Chemistry without affecting the meaning.

Explanation:

Atomic radii decrease slightly and then start to increase.

Atomic radius of transition metals from left to right increases slightly then decreases. Thus it is not following the trend as for other periods. Hence, option c is correct.

Transition metals are d-block elements in periodic table. starting from group 3 to group 12. Transition metals are called so because they are in between gases and metals in periodic table.

All transition metals shows varying oxidation states.  For example, iron Fe shows +2 and +3 and copper shows +1, +2 and +3.  Transition metals are malleable, ductile and are good conductors of heat and electricity.

From left to right in a row in periodic table, the atomic radius decreases and electronegativity increases. However, this trend is not systematic in the case of transition metals where, the atomic radii increases first and then decreases.

Answer:

1. Methyl propanoate.

2. Propanol.

3. 2–pentyne

Explanation:

1. The functional group in this case is ester. We name ester by naming the group after the functional group (–COO) then followed by the parent compound with the name ending with –oate.

The group after the functional is methyl i.e —CH3.

The parent compound has 3 carbon i.e propane. The functional group replaces the –e in propane with –oate.

Therefore, the name of the compound is:

Methyl propanoate.

2. In this case the functional group is

–OH i.e alcohol.

The compound has 3 carbon i.e propane. The functional group replaces the –e in propane with –ol.

Therefore, the name of the compound is:

Propanol.

3. The triple bond represents the functional group in this case i.e alkyne. We'll give the triple bond the lowest low count by counting from the left. The triple bond is at carbon 2.

The compound has 5 carbon i.e pentyne since it contains triple.

The name of the compound is:

2–pentyne

Answer:

C8H16

Explanation:

First thing to do here is to calculate the molar mass of the compound

Mathematically;

molar mass = mass/number of moles

we can calculate the number of moles using the ideal gas equation

Mathematically;

PV = nRT

n = PV/RT

where p is the pressure at 5 atm

V is the volume at 568 ml = 568/1000 = 0.568 L

R is the molar gas constant which is 0.0821

T is the temperature which is 120+ 273 = 393k

Inserting these values into the equation, we have

n = (5 * 0.568)/(0.0821 * 393)

n = 0.088 moles

So the molar mass = 10/0.088

= 114 g/mol

Now let’s go to the percentages

C = 84.2/12 = 7.016666666666667

H = 15.8/1 = 15.8

divide by the smallest

C = 7.016666666666667/7.016666666666667 = 1

H = 15.8/7.016666666666667 = 2 approximately

The empirical formula is CH2

So for the molecular formula, we have;

(12 + 2)n = 114

14n = 114

n = 114/14 = approximately 8

So the molecular formula of the liquid will be (CH2)n = C8H16

Answer:

Substance E does not conduct electricity in both solid and molten states because of very low melting and boiling points.

In both solid and molten state free electrons are required to conduct electricity. substance E has low boiling and melting point which means substance will have relatively weak bonds. Because of weak bonds substance E might not have much free electron in its outermost shell that can cause the electric current by their coordinated movement.

Hence, substance E is unable to conduct in both melting and molten state.

According to the molar concentration, the concentration of the acid is 2.5 mole/liters.

Molar concentration is defined as a measure by which concentration of chemical substances present in a solution are determined. It is defined in particular reference to solute concentration in a solution . Most commonly used unit for molar concentration is moles/liter.

The molar concentration depends on change in volume of the solution which is mainly due to thermal expansion. Molar concentration is calculated by the formula, molar concentration=mass/ molar mass ×1/volume of solution in liters.

In terms of moles, it's formula is given as molar concentration= number of moles /volume of solution in liters.In case of 2 solutions, molar concentration is obtained as M₁V₁=M₂V₂, on substitution of values, M₁=25×0.20/20=2.5 mole/L.

Thus,the concentration of the acid is 2.5 mole/liters.

A. 2.71 V

Explanation:

The standard reduction potential, E° of the metals are as follows:

Mg²⁺ + 2e⁻ ⇌  Mg; E° = -2.372

Cu²⁺ + 2e⁻ ⇌  Cu; E° = +0.337

Since magnesium has the the lower E°, it will serve as the anode in the electrolytic cell while copper will serve as the cathode.

At the anode; Mg ⇌  Mg²⁺ + 2e⁻, E° = -2.372

At the cathode; Cu²⁺ + 2e⁻ ⇌  Cu, E° = +0.337

EMF of the cell = E° cathode - E° anode = 0.337 - (-2.372) = 2.71 V

Therefore, EMF of the cell is 2.71 V

Answer:

m = 17

Explanation:

From the question we were given that

Triangle WZY is bisected by ZX; ZW = ZY

∠YXZ = (6m – 12)°

Based on the characteristics of the triangle, we see that triangle WYZ is an isosceles triangle (that is, triangle WXZ is equal to triangle YXZ)

<YXZ = <WXZ = 90°

Using ∠YXZ  = (6m – 12)°

We have:

(6m – 12)° =  90°

6m = 90 + 12 ⇒ 6m = 102

m = 102 ÷ 6 = 17

m = 17

We therefore see that m is equal to 17
