True

Carbon monoxide is a primary pollutant which no odor results from incomplete combustion of fuel. The man sources are gasoline and burning of biomass.

Depending on the source of emission, pollutants can be classified into two groups that is primary and secondary pollutants.

A primary pollutant is emitted in the atmosphere directly from a source. It can be either natural sch as volcanic eruptions, sandstorms or man-made that is due to industrial and vehicle emissions. Examples of primary pollutants are nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide and particulate matter.

Secondary pollutant is due to interactions between primary and secondary pollutants. These can be chemical or physical interactions. Examples are photo-chemical oxidants and secondary particulate matter.

Therefore, carbon monoxide CO is a primary pollutant.

<h3>Answer:</h3>

1.43 × 10⁻²⁰ mol Li

<h3>General Formulas and Concepts:</h3>

<u>Math</u>

<u>Pre-Algebra</u>

Order of Operations: BPEMDAS

Brackets
Parenthesis
Exponents
Multiplication
Division
Addition
Subtraction

Left to Right

<u>Chemistry</u>

<u>Atomic Structure</u>

Using Dimensional Analysis
Avogadro's Number - 6.022 × 10²³ atoms, molecules, formula units, etc.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

8.63 × 10³ atoms Li

<u>Step 2: Identify Conversions</u>

Avogadro's Number

<u>Step 3: Convert</u>

Set up: $\displaystyle 8.63 \cdot 10^3 \ atoms \ Li(\frac{1 \ mol \ Li}{6.022 \cdot 10^{23} \ atoms \ Li})$
Multiply/Divide: $\displaystyle 1.43355 \cdot 10^{-20} \ moles \ Li$

<u>Step 4: Check</u>

<em>Follow sig fig rules and round. We are given 3 sig figs.</em>

1.43355 × 10⁻²⁰ mol Li ≈ 1.43 × 10⁻²⁰ mol Li

Which buffer would be better able to hold a steady pH on the addition of strong acid, buffer 1 or buffer 2? Explain. Buffer 1: a

Talja [164]

Answer:

Buffer 1.

Explanation:

Ammonia is a weak base. It acts like a Bronsted-Lowry Base when it reacts with hydrogen ions.

$\rm NH_3\; (aq) + H^{+}\; (aq) \to {NH_4}^{+}\; (aq)$ .

$\rm NH_3$ gains one hydrogen ion to produce the ammonium ion $\rm {NH_4}^{+}$ . In other words, $\rm {NH_4}^{+}$ is the conjugate acid of the weak base $\rm NH_3$ .

Both buffer 1 and 2 include

the weak base ammonia $\rm NH_3$ , and
the conjugate acid of the weak base $\rm {NH_4}^{+}$ .

The ammonia $\rm NH_3$ in the solution will react with hydrogen ions as they are added to the solution:

$\rm NH_3\; (aq) + H^{+}\; (aq) \to {NH_4}^{+}\; (aq)$ .

There are more $\rm NH_3$ in the buffer 1 than in buffer 2. It will take more strong acid to react with the majority of $\rm NH_3$ in the solution. Conversely, the pH of buffer 1 will be more steady than that in buffer 2 when the same amount of acid has been added.
