Please answer quickly!! 1. Which of the following statements is true? a. The breaking of bonds is exothermic, and therefore has a negative delta H value.
b. The breaking of bonds is exothermic, and therefore has a positive Delta H value.
6. The breaking of bonds is endothermic, and therefore has a negative Delta H value.
d. The breaking of bonds is endothermic, and therefore has a positive Delta H value

d

Explanation:

a positive change in enthalpy is required to break a bond, while a negative change in enthalpy is accompanied by the formation of a bond. Bond breaking in endothermic because it requires energy, therefore delta H is positive.

tracks, burrows, eggshells, nests, tooth marks, or gastroliths

the correct answer is b. a strong acid completely dissociates to its ions when dissolved in water. completely dissociates to and ions. a is incorrect because does not fully ionize to and ions and some remain as the compound . c and d are incorrect because, and do not fall into the category of bronsted lowry acids. a bronsted lowry acid is a proton donor and since both molecules do not have a proton to donate they are not bronsted lowry acids. likewise,   if we use the lewis acid definition, they cannot be acids. a lewis acid is an electron pair acceptor. both and have a complete octet so can not accept any electrons which disqualifies them as acids.
