Acids and bases have been known by their properties since the early days of experimental chemistry. The word "acid" comes from the Latin acidus , meaning "sour" or "tart," since water solutions of acids have a sour or tart taste. Lemons, grapefruit, and limes taste sour because they ...
Water-based reactions form things like acid rain. What is the difference between endothermic and exothermic reactions? In an exothermic reaction, energy is created by breaking bonds between atoms. This energy is then released in the form of heat, light, sound, or electricity; leaving the ...
In the formation of acid rain, sulfur dioxide reacts with oxygen and water in the air to form sulfuric acid. a. Write the balanced chemical equation for the reaction. 2 SO_2 + 1 O_2 + 2 H_2O \rightar In the formation of acid rain, sulfur...
Henderson-Hasselbalch equation a formula for calculating the pH of a buffer solution such as blood plasma, pH = pKa + log [BA/HA]; [HA] is the concentration of a free weak acid; [BA] the concentration of the ionized form of this acid; pKa the acid dissociation constant, a measure of...
Nitric acid is a component of acid rain that forms when gaseous nitrogen dioxide pollutant reacts with gaseous oxygen and liquid water to form aqueous nitric acid. Write a balanced chemical equation f Write a balanced equation for...

Fig. 2.1. Graphic depiction of a contact angle of liquid, L, deposited upon a flat, smooth, horizontal surface of a solid, S. The contact angle, θ, is always measured through the drop, at the tangent to the drop at the triple point: solid–liquid–air. For further explanation see te...
The reaction between sulfur trioxide gas (SO3) with water in the atmosphere generates acid rain. ___ 6. Potassium oxide is produced from the reaction of oxygen and potassium (K) used in several industrial contexts, such as in glassmaking. ___ 7. Aluminum bromide is a colorless solid...
There are few ecological publications using LGC models. However, we found a civil engineering study on water quality applying the LGC model to examine the acidic deposition from acid rain in 21 stream sites across the Appalachian Mountain Region from 1980 to 2006 (Chen and Lin2010). This study...
