In buffer solution there is an equilibrium between the acid HA and its conjugate base A⁻: HA(aq) ⇌ H⁺(aq) + A⁻(aq).
When acid (H⁺ ions) is added to the buffer solution, the equilibrium is shifted to the left, because conjugate base (A⁻) reacts with hydrogen cations from added acid, according to Le Chatelier's principle: H⁺(aq) + A⁻(aq) ⇄ HA(aq). So, the conjugate base (A⁻) consumes some hydrogen cations and pH is not decreasing (less H⁺ ions, higher pH of solution).
A buffer can be defined as a substance that prevents the pH of a solution from changing by either releasing or absorbing H⁺ in a solution.
Buffer is a solution that can resist pH change upon the addition of an acidic or basic components and it is able to neutralize small amounts of added acid or base, pH of the solution is relatively stable
A) Polymer is the general name of large units made of many smaller units (these would be called monomers). An example is starch, this is a carbohydrate polymer that is made up of smaller units (monomers) called glucose.
Explanation:
Average atomic mass of the vanadium = 50.9415 amu
Isotope (I) of vanadium' s abundance = 99.75 %= 0.9975
Atomic mass of Isotope (I) of vanadium ,m= 50.9440 amu
Isotope (II) of vanadium' s abundance =(100%- 99.75 %) = 0.25 % = 0.0025
Atomic mass of Isotope (II) of vanadium ,m' = ?
Average atomic mass of vanadium =
m × abundance of isotope(I) + m' × abundance of isotope (II)
50.9415 amu =50.9440 amu× 0.9975 + m' × 0.0025
m'= 49.944 amu
The atomic mass of isotope (II) of vanadium is 49.944 amu.
Answer:
Conversion of kinetic energy to potential energy (chemo mechanical energy)
In the state of rest, the rubber is a tangled mass of long chained cross-linked polymer that due to their disorderliness are in a state of increased entropy. By pulling on the polymer, the applied kinetic energy stretches the polymer into straight chains, giving them order and reducing their entropy. The stretched rubber then has energy stored in the form of chemo mechanical energy which is a form of potential energy
Conversion of the stored potential energy in the stretched to kinetic energy
By remaining in a stretched condition, the rubber is in a state of high potential energy, when the force holding the rubber in place is removed, due to the laws of thermodynamics, the polymers in the rubber curls back to their state of "random" tangled mass releasing the stored potential energy in the process and doing work such as moving items placed in the rubber's path of motion such as an object that has weight, w then takes up the kinetic energy 1/2×m×v² which can can result in the flight of the object.
