The material which is used as source for commercial production aluminum is bauxite.

The aluminum can be extracted from bauxite ore by the process of Bayer process.

In the Bayer process, bauxite ore is heated in the pressure vessel along with a caustic soda solution (sodium hydroxide) at a temperature between 150 to 200 °C. At this temperatures, the aluminium is dissolved in the solution as sodium aluminate in the extraction process. After separation of the residue by filtering, when the liquid is cooled gibbsite is precipitated and then it is seeded with fine-grained aluminum hydroxide crystals from previous extractions. The precipitation take 7-19 days without the addition of seed crystals.

This extraction process converts the aluminium oxide to soluble sodium aluminate, NaAlO2, which afterward converted into aluminum hydroxide and then into aluminum oxide.

Thus, we concluded that the material which is used as source for commercial production aluminum is bauxite ore.

Select the missing words to complete the definition of buffer capacity. Buffer capacity is the _____________ of acid or base a b
horsena [70]

Answer:

amount, pH value.

Explanation:

The buffer range is the pH range in which the buffer performs optimally, i.e., neutralizes even when a strong acid or base is introduced to it and resists any major change in its pH value.

The buffer capacity is the amount of acid or base that can be added before the pH of the buffer solution changes significantly.

Thus, the final statement becomes,

Buffer capacity is the amount of acid or base a buffer can handle before pushing the pH value outside of the buffer range.

Which best explains what happens to the carbon atoms in carbon dioxide during photosynthesis?A They are incorporated into molecu
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

A They are incorporated into molecules of sugar.

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is the metabolic process whereby sugar molecules are synthesized by plants in the presence of sunlight (light energy). For this process to occur, carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) are needed as reactants from external sources. Hence, the photosynthetic equation is as follows:

6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2

According to this question, the carbon atoms in carbon dioxide are incorporated into sugar molecule (glucose). It takes 6 carbon atoms to produce one glucose molecule (C6H12O6). This process involves series of reaction in the light-independent stage of photosynthesis to occur.
