The ratio of [sodium acetate] to [acetic acid] in a buffer solution is 0.30.

Henderson–Hasselbalch equation: pH = pKa + log(cs/ck)

pH = 4.25; pH of buffer solution

pKa = -log(1.7 × 10−5) = 4.77

4.25 = 4.77 + log(cs/ck)

log(cs/ck) =4.25 - 4.77 = -0.52

cs/ck = 10∧(-0.52) = 0.30; ratio of sodium acetate to acetic acid

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.

Which organisms in this food web are carnivores? Select the two correct
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

The two correct options are Poison dart frog and Boa constrictor. Both these organisms are pure carnivores which are also known as pure meat eaters in the food web. Carnivores are organisms in the food chain that only meat-eaters and never take any type of vegetation in their diet.

Explanation:

  • A Poison dart frog purely survives on meat (meat- eater).
  • Long sticky tongues are used to catch their prey such as ants, flies, insects.
  • Since they produce high toxin levels, it has very few predators in the wild.
  • Boa constrictor is also an organism that eats only meat.
  • While they are young they eat prey like rats, squirrels and mice.
  • The type of attack used by a boa constrictor is an ambush attack type. It attacks its preys using the surprise factor.

calcium has atomic number of 20 how many electrons of a calcium atom are involved in chemical bonding
Lelu [443]

The answer is 2 electrons.


The electron configuration of calcium is 2:8:8:2

Calcium has two electrons in its outermost shell. These are its valence electrons and are the ones used in bonding with other elements.  Valence electrons of an atom are those electrons that are in its outer energy shell or that are available for bonding.

Calcium is a metal. When metals react with non-metals, electrons are transferred from the metal atoms to the non-metal atoms forming ions. The resulting compound is known  as an ionic compound.

For example, when calcium metal reacts with chlorine gas,   calcium gives up its two valence electrons and Chlorine accepts them resulting in a new substance called calcium chloride in which the two elements have ended up forming ionic bonds.
