A piece of rubber has a mass of 495 kg and a volume of 355 liters. Will it float in water, which has a density of 1.0 g/mL?

1 answer:

6 0

Compare the density of the rubber to water. If it is less that 1 g/mL then it floats in the water.

You must compare density in the same units. So convert to g/mL

$( \frac{495kg}{355L} )*( \frac{1000g}{1kg} )*( \frac{1L}{1000mL} ) = 1.39 g/mL$

The rubber does not float in water.

c) What is the pH of the buffer system in part a when 0.030 moles of strong acid are added (without a change in volume)

Answer:

remain the same

Explanation:

The pH of the buffer system remain the same when 0.030 moles of strong acid are added because buffer system has the property to resist any change in the pH when acid or base is added to the solution. In buffer system, one molecule is responsible for neutralizing the pH of the solution by giving H+ or OH-.This molecule is known as buffer agent. If more base is added, the molecule provide H+ and when more acid is added to the solution, then the molecule add OH- to the solution.
