An acid because it is a blue liquid.
An acid because it is a blue liquid.

An acid because it has more hydroxide ions than hydronium ions.
An acid because it has more hydroxide ions than hydronium ions.

A base because it has more hydroxide ions than hydronium ions.
A base because it has more hydroxide ions than hydronium ions.

A base because it is a blue liquid.

2.Use the following neutralization reaction to answer the question.

HC2H3O2+NaOH→NaC2H3O2+H2O
Which of the reactants is the acid?

(1 point)
HC2H3O2 because it releases a hydrogen.
cap h cap c sub 2 cap h sub 3 cap o sub 2 because it releases a hydrogen.

HC2H3O2 because it releases a hydroxide.
cap h cap c sub 2 cap h sub 3 cap o sub 2 because it releases a hydroxide.

NaOH because it releases a hydrogen.
cap n A cap o cap h because it releases a hydrogen.

NaOH because it releases a hydrogen.
3.
HC2H3O2 because it releases a hydrogen.
cap h cap c sub 2 cap h sub 3 cap o sub 2 because it releases a hydrogen.

The ocean releases carbon dioxide, which reacts with water to create acids. The acids cause an increase in hydronium ions, decreasing pH.

4.How does a lower pH in the ocean impact marine life?
The lower pH causes harm to predators and increases the population of prey.
The lower pH causes harm to predators and increases the population of prey.

The lower pH causes more carbon dioxide to be absorbed which increases plant life.
The lower pH causes more carbon dioxide to be absorbed which increases plant life.

The lower pH causes fish to reproduce at greater rates, increasing populations.
The lower pH causes fish to reproduce at greater rates, increasing populations.

The lower pH causes coral reefs to be weak and break, destroying marine habitats.
ansers
1. A base because it has more hydroxide ions than hydronium ions.
2.HC2H3O2 because it releases a hydrogen.
3.The ocean absorbs carbon dioxide, which reacts with water to create acids. The acids cause an increase in hydronium ions, decreasing pH.
4.The lower pH causes coral reefs to be weak and break, destroying marine habitats.
idk is 100% right
thank you :)
IDK i right
1. A base because it has more hydroxide ions than hydronium ions.
