In photosynthesis, light energy is used to convert CO2 into carbohydrates.
Answer : The volume of sodium benzoate and benzoic acid solution mixed to prepare this buffer should be, 29.0 mL and 71 mL respectively.
Explanation :
Let the volume of sodium benzoate (salt) be, x
So, the volume of benzoic acid (acid) will be, (100 - x)
Using Henderson Hesselbach equation :
![pH=pK_a+\log \frac{[Salt]}{[Acid]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=pH%3DpK_a%2B%5Clog%20%5Cfrac%7B%5BSalt%5D%7D%7B%5BAcid%5D%7D)
Now put all the given values in this expression, we get:

x = 29.0
The volume of sodium benzoate = x = 29.0 mL
The volume of benzoic acid (acid) = (100 - x) = (100 - 29.0) = 71 mL
Thus, the volume of sodium benzoate and benzoic acid solution mixed to prepare this buffer should be, 29.0 mL and 71 mL respectively.
Answer:
1) Increasing the pressure A) Shift to the left
2) Removing hydrogen gas B) Shift to the right
3) Adding a catalyst C) No effect
Explanation:
- <em>Le Châtelier's principle states that when there is an dynamic equilibrium, and this equilibrium is disturbed by an external factor, the equilibrium will be shifted in the direction that can cancel the effect of the external factor to reattain the equilibrium.</em>
<em></em>
<u><em>1) Decreasing the pressure:</em></u>
- When there is an increase in pressure, the equilibrium will shift towards the side with fewer moles of gas of the reaction. And when there is a decrease in pressure, the equilibrium will shift towards the side with more moles of gas of the reaction.
- The reactants side (left) has 4.0 moles of gases and the products side (right) has 2.0 moles of gases.
- So, decreasing the pressure will shift the reaction to the side with more moles of gas (left side).
<u><em>so, the right match is: A) Shift to the left.</em></u>
<em><u>2) Adding hydrogen gas:</u></em>
- Adding hydrogen gas will increase the concentration of the reactants side, so the reaction will be shifted to the right side to suppress the increase in the concentration of hydrogen gas by addition.
<u><em>so, the right match is: B) Shift to the right.</em></u>
<u><em></em></u>
<u><em>3) Adding a catalyst:</em></u>
- Catalyst increases the rate of the reaction without affecting the equilibrium position.
- Catalyst increases the rate via lowering the activation energy of the reaction.
- This can occur via passing the reaction in alternative pathway (changing the mechanism).
- The activation energy is the difference in potential energies between the reactants and transition state (for the forward reaction) and it is the difference in potential energies between the products and transition state (for the reverse reaction).
- in the presence of a catalyst, the activation energy is lowered by lowering the energy of the transition state, which is the rate-determining step, catalysts reduce the required energy of activation to allow a reaction to proceed and, in the case of a reversible reaction, reach equilibrium more rapidly.
- with adding a catalyst, both the forward and reverse reaction rates will speed up equally, which allowing the system to reach equilibrium faster.
<u><em>so, the right match is: B) No effect.</em></u>

Answer:

Explanation:
Electrolysis is not possible with solid lead (II) bromide. This is because the ions are held in a three-dimensional lattice, unable to move freely to the electrodes. Melting enables the ions to become mobile and to travel to the respective electrodes.
The bulb won't glow when the electrodes are embedded in solid lead bromide. The bulb will glow when the material surrounding the electrodes is molten lead bromide. When an ionic compound is in the molten (liquid) form the positive and negative ions are free to move around.
Hopes this Helps :D

<span>When pKas of polyprotic intermediates have a difference of 2 or more you just average them using the equation: pH = (pKa2 + pKa3) / 2 </span>
<span>pKa2 = -log(Ka2) ; pKa3 = -log(Ka3) </span>
<span>so, for this problem, REGARDLESS OF THE CONCENTRATION GIVEN, the answer is: </span>
<span>pH = (7.2076+12.3767) / 2 </span>
<span>pH = 9.79</span>
