A buffer is a solution that is a mixture of either a weak acid and its conjugate base or a weak base and its conjugate acid. Whe

n strong acids or strong bases are added, buffers either accept protons when they are in excess or donate protons when they have been depleted to minimize changes in pH. Which of the statements correctly describe the properties of a buffer? Select one or more: a. The conjugate acid of an alkaline buffer will accept hydrogen protons when a strong base is added to the solution. b. The weak base of an alkaline buffer will accept hydrogen protons when a strong acid is added to the solution. c. The weak base of an alkaline buffer will donate hydrogen protons when a strong acid is added to the solution. d. The conjugate acid of an alkaline buffer will donate hydrogen protons when a strong base is added to the solution. e. An alkaline buffer solution is a mixture of a weak base and its conjugate acid. f. An alkaline buffer solution is a mixture of a weak acid and its conjugate base.

Answer:

b. The weak base of an alkaline buffer will accept hydrogen protons when a strong acid is added to the solution

d.The conjugate acid of an alkaline buffer will donate hydrogen protons when a strong base is added to the solution.

Explanation:

A buffer is a solution that resist pH change, it shows minimal change upon addition of small amount of strong acid or strong base. An alkaline buffer will have a  basic pH, above 7. It is made by mixing a weak base and its salt with a strong acid. An example of an alkaline buffer is carbonate-bicarbonate buffer that is prepared using varying amount of anhydrous sodium carbonate and volume of solution of sodium bicarbonate to get pH range between 9.2 to 10.7

Within the buffer,the salt is completely ionized while the weak base is partly ionized. on addition of acid, the released protons will be removed by the bicarbonate ion to form sodium carbonate; on addition of base, the hydroxide ion released by the base will be removed by the hydrogen ions to form water and the pH remains relatively the same

quester [9]

One: looks to be correct for both answers. Certainly the first one is. The second depends on your other choices. But military use is one.

Two: is correct. Pd has (in this case) an atomic mass of 114 and its number is 46

Three: Even with my slop numbers, 4.98  is the answer (although I get 4.99 but again, my numbers are pretty sloppy).

Four: Slop numbers say 78.3, but 78 is the right answer.

Five: Slop numbers agree with Al2S3. I think that's D

They are all correct. Very Fine Work.

A sample of gas contains 0.1800 mol of CO(g) and 0.1800 mol of NO(g) and occupies a volume of 23.2 L. The following reaction tak
baherus [9]

Answer:

The volume of the sample is 17.4L

Explanation:

The reaction that occurs requires the same amount of CO and NO. As the moles added of both reactants are the same you don't have any limiting reactant. The only thing we need is the reaction where 4 moles of gases (2mol CO + 2mol NO) produce 3 moles of gases (2mol CO2 + 1mol N2). The moles produced are:

0.1800mol + 0.1800mol reactants =

0.3600mol reactant * (3mol products / 4mol reactants) = 0.2700 moles products.

Using Avogadro's law (States the moles of a gas are directly proportional to its pressure under constant temperature and pressure) we can find the volume of the products:

V1n2 = V2n1

<em>Where V is volume and n moles of 1, initial state and 2, final state of the gas</em>

Replacing:

V1 = 23.2L

n2 = 0.2700 moles

V2 = ??

n1 = 0.3600 moles

23.2L*0.2700mol = V2*0.3600moles

17.4L = V2

<h3>The volume of the sample is 17.4L</h3>

Albus Dumbledore provides his students with a sample of 19.3 g of sodium sulfate. How many oxygen atoms are in this sample
Dimas [21]

Answer:

<em>3.27·10²³ atoms of O</em>

Explanation:

To figure out the amount of oxygen atoms in this sample, we must first evaluate the sample.

The chemical formula for sodium sulfate is <em>Na₂SO₄, </em>and its molar mass is approximately 142.05\frac{g}{mol}.

We will use stoichiometry to convert from our mass of <em>Na₂SO₄ </em>to moles of <em>Na₂SO₄</em>, and then from moles of <em>Na₂SO₄ </em>to moles of <em>O </em>using the mole ratio; then finally, we will convert from moles of <em>O </em>to atoms of <em>O </em>using Avogadro's constant.

19.3g <em>Na₂SO₄</em> · \frac{1 mol Na^2SO^4}{142.05g Na^2SO^4} · \frac{4 mol O}{1 mol Na^2SO^4} ·\frac{6.022x10^2^3}{1 mol O}

After doing the math for this dimensional analysis, you should get a quantity of approximately <em>3.27·10²³ atoms of O</em>.
