Answer:
The scientific method is an empirical method of acquiring knowledge that has characterized the development of science since at least the 17th century.
The basic steps of the scientific method are:
1) investigation
2) hypothesis
3) interpretation
4) conclusions
Answer:
Explanation:
DNA polymerase is an enzyme that synthesizes DNA molecules from deoxyribonucleotides, the building blocks of DNA. These enzymes are essential for DNA replication and usually work in pairs to create two identical DNA strands from a single original DNA molecule.
Answer:
2.25g of NaF are needed to prepare the buffer of pH = 3.2
Explanation:
The mixture of a weak acid (HF) with its conjugate base (NaF), produce a buffer. To find the pH of a buffer we must use H-H equation:
pH = pKa + log [A-] / [HA]
<em>Where pH is the pH of the buffer that you want = 3.2, pKa is the pKa of HF = 3.17, and [] could be taken as the moles of A-, the conjugate base (NaF) and the weak acid, HA, (HF). </em>
The moles of HF are:
500mL = 0.500L * (0.100mol/L) = 0.0500 moles HF
Replacing:
3.2 = 3.17 + log [A-] / [0.0500moles]
0.03 = log [A-] / [0.0500moles]
1.017152 = [A-] / [0.0500moles]
[A-] = 0.0500mol * 1.017152
[A-] = 0.0536 moles NaF
The mass could be obtained using the molar mass of NaF (41.99g/mol):
0.0536 moles NaF * (41.99g/mol) =
<h3>2.25g of NaF are needed to prepare the buffer of pH = 3.2</h3>
Answer:
Explanation:
During titration indicators are often used to identify chemical changes between reacting species.
For colorless solutions in which no noticeable changes can easily be seen, indicators are the best bet. Most titration processes involves a combination of acids and bases to an end point.
Indicators are substances whose color changes to signal the end of an acid-base reaction. Examples are methyl orange, methyl red, phenolphthalein, litmus, cresol red, cresol green, alizarin R3, bromothymol blue and congo red.
Most of these indicators have various colors when chemical changes occur.
Also, there are heat changes that accompanies most of these reactions. These are also indicators of chemical changes.
