A buffer is prepared by mixing hypochlorous acid ( HClO ) and sodium hypochlorite ( NaClO ) . If a strong base, such as NaOH , i

s added to this buffer, which buffer component neutralizes the additional hydroxide ions ( OH − ) ? ClO − HClO Write a balanced chemical equation for the reaction of the selected buffer component and the hydroxide ion ( OH − ) . Do not include physical states.

<u>Answer:</u> The balanced chemical equation is written below.

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

A weak acid that is hypochlorous acid (HClO) and basic salt that is sodium hypochlorite (NaClO)

When a strong base is added to the buffer, the hydroxide ion will be neutralized by hydrogen ions from the acid.

So, the buffer component that neutralizes the additional hydroxide ions in the solution is HClO

The chemical equation for the neutralization of hydroxide ion with acid follows:

HClO+OH^-\rightarrow H_2O+ClO^-

Hence, the balanced chemical equation is written below.

Consider the two facts below:
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

A. There is more dissolved oxygen in colder waters than in warm water.

D. If ocean temperature rise, then the risk to the fish population increases.

Explanation:

Conclusion that can be drawn from the two facts stated above:

*Dissolved oxygen is essential nutrient for fish survival in their aquatic habitat.

*Dissolved oxygen would decrease as the temperature of aquatic habit rises, and vice versa.

*Fishes, therefore, would thrive best in colder waters than warmer waters.

The following are scenarios that can be explained by the facts given and conclusions arrived:

A. There is more dissolved oxygen in colder waters than in warm water (solubility of gases decreases with increase in temperature)

D. If ocean temperature rise, then the risk to the fish population increases (fishes will thrive best in colder waters where dissolved oxygen is readily available).

At which of the following temperatures is the average kinetic energy of the molecules of a substance the least? 23.2 °C 35.2 °C
svp [43]
At 15.2°C. Kinetic energy of molecules highly depends on the temperature — the warmer it is, the faster the molecules will move, especially in fluids (gases and liquids). If we consider that the formula for average kinetic energy of molecules is:

Ek = 3/2*k*T where k is Boltzmanns constant and 3/2 is, well, 3/2, kinetic energy of molecules really only depends on the temperature.

Wade thinks it would be really cool to become a radiologist. Which two skills are important for him to have in order to excel in
zlopas [31]

ANSWER: The two skills that Wade will need to excel in the career of a Radiologist are:

1. Interpersonal skills to talk to patients and help them feel comfortable: This skill important because patients often are afraid of getting detected by a disease. Few patients also fear of getting tested by the heavy and complicated machineries. A radiologist's interpersonal skill will calm the patient and his attendant and will make them feel relieved.

2. Technical skills to know how to use the machinery and equipment needed for the job: Radiologist's primary duty is to operate the machineries in order to diagnose a patient correctly. A radiologist can not afford to be an amateur as he will either not be able to detect a disease or may raise a false alarm of a person having a disease.
