Consider a buffer solution containing CH3COOH and CH3COO-, with an equilibrium represented by: CH3COOH(aq) + H2O (l) ←----→ H3O+

(aq) + CH3COO- (aq) Describe what occurs if a strong acid such as HNO3 is added to the system, including an explanation of the direction of the equilibrium shift. Describe what occurs if a strong base such as KOH is added, including an explanation of the direction of the equilibrium shift.

Answer:

Here's what I get.

Explanation:

(a) The buffer equilibrium

The equation for the buffer equilibrium is

\rm CH_{3}COOH(aq) + H$_{2}$O(l) $\, \rightleftharpoons \,$ CH$_{3}$COO$^{-}$(aq) + H$_{3}$O$^{+}$(aq)

(b) Addition of acid

If you add a strong acid like HNO₃, you are increasing the concentration of hydronium ion.

Per Le Châtelier's Principle, the system will respond in such a way as to decrease the concentration of hydronium ion.

The position of equilibrium will shift to the left.

(c) Addition of base.

If you add a strong base like KOH, The hydroxide ions will react with the hydronium ions to form water.

The concentration of hydronium ions will decrease.

Per Le Châtelier's Principle, the system will respond in such a way as to increase the concentration of hydronium ions.

The position of equilibrium will shift to the right.

2. From each of the following pairs of atoms, pick the atom that has
Zina [86]

Answer:

a) Na

c) Na

b) Sr

d) Ca

Explanation:

As we move from left to right across the periodic table the number of valance electrons in an atom increase. The atomic size tend to decrease in same period of periodic table because the electrons are added with in the same shell. When the electron are added, at the same time protons are also added in the nucleus. The positive charge is going to increase and this charge is greater in effect than the charge of electrons. This effect lead to the greater nuclear attraction. The electrons are pull towards the nucleus and valance shell get closer to the nucleus. As a result of this greater nuclear attraction atomic radius decreases and ionization energy increases because it is very difficult to remove the electron from atom and more energy is required.

As we move down the group atomic radii increased with increase of atomic number. The addition of electron in next level cause the atomic radii to increased. The hold of nucleus on valance shell become weaker because of shielding of electrons thus size of atom increased.

As the size of atom increases the ionization energy from top to bottom also  decreases because it becomes easier to remove the electron because of less nuclear attraction and as more electrons are added the outer electrons becomes more shielded and away from nucleus.

A girl throws a rock into a pond. A leaf floating on the pond bobs up and down but does not change location on the pond's surfac
sertanlavr [38]

This is due to the difference in density. The rock is denser than the leaf. And also, the rock is denser than the liquid in the pond. If the material is denser than the other material, it will sink. The same holds true for the rock, it sinks. But when the material is less dense than the other material, it floats. And it holds true for the leaf, it floats.
