In a recent year, electric power plants in the US consumed 1.14 x 1011 kg of natural gas. Assume that natural gas is entirely methane, CH,, and calculate the number of hydrogen atoms in this amount. (a) 4.56 x 1011 atoms H (b) 1.71 x 1037 atoms H (c) 2.84 x 1013 atoms H (d) 4.28 x 1036 atoms H​

b. accuracy of the data matters alot more than its number of digits, organization or amount of detail. quantitative observation is more accepted than the qualitative observation.

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.
