u must look at the equation given and then see the proton transfer as :
acid is a proton donor
base is a proton acceptor
so if once a acid accept proton i will be considered as a base

same goes with the water :)

hope u understood :D
i think it cud also be H+ donor/ acceptors
ie if a substance accepts H+ ions it is a base n vice versa
so 4 a ques like why is substance X acting like an acid, d ans is bcoz it is accepting H+ ions

hope u get it!

the first answer :
lime

the second answer is ammonia because it is a base so it can neutralize HCL
while carbon dioxide and litmus solution cant.

the third answer :
Its A

hey haochen, i think the third Answer is "B" not "A" because aluminium is used in food containers as it is light and resists corrosion, and you can check that answer from the syllabus here at this link http://www.xtremepapers.me/CIE/Cambridg ... y11_sy.pdf PAGE 22 , hope i helped :)

ohh yeah its B :)
i was checking my answer and realize that I wrote A so i changed it :)
btw thx for telling :D

Q.P--> http://www.xtremepapers.me/CIE/Cambridg ... _qp_12.pdf
M.S--> http://www.xtremepapers.me/CIE/Cambridg ... _ms_12.pdf
Question 8
answer: "A" silver is a reactive metal ! how ? isn`t silver under copper in the reactivity series ??
why not "B" !!!!!!! OMG IT`S SOOOOOO TRICKY MAAAAN

Basically, it says what statement is not correct. So, yes, the electrolyte is a dissolve silver salt, and the spoon would be the cathode. Also, the metal electrode would be silver. However, the electroplating does not depend on the reactivity, so A is the answer, as it is the only incorrect statement.

doubt...
Q-Astatine is an element in Group VII of the Periodic Table. It has only ever been produced in very
small amounts.

What is the best description of its likely properties?
colour state reaction with aqueous potassium iodide
black solid no reaction
dark brown gas brown colour
green solid no reaction
yellow liquid brown colour

What is the answer and how do we know it?

Firstly, assess it's position in the periodic table.. It is at the bottom of group VII..

As you move down the group, colour gets darker, mp and bp both increase, and the states shift to solid.

Thus, A is the only acceptable answer.

u hv 2 keep d properties of d group in mind
in grp 7 the physical properties increase ie as u move downd grp it turns frm gas-liquid- solid.
also d color becomes darker down d grp
so its d first one
hpe u got it!!! :wink: :wink:

Both need to have a full outer shell. If XY is the bond made, Y Still needs 2 bonds.

Thus it is X3Y or D.
