The formula of citric acid is:

           CO2H
           |
HO -  C - CH2CO2H
          
|
          C - CH2 CO2H



I bolded the 4 hydrogens that can be subsituted by sodium.


Three of those hydrogens belong to carboxyl group (- CO2H) and one to a hydroxyl group (- OH).


You need to take into account that 4 H will form 2 H2 molecules.


So, the answer is that 2 moles of molecules will be formed from 1 mole of citric acid molecules.

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

28

Explanation:

it states that the atom is neutral, meaning the number of electrons and protons are the same. so if there are 13 electrons, there are 13 protons. And the mass number is neutrons plus protons. So 13+15 is 28

Which of the following is a buffer system? Which of the following is a buffer system? H2CO3(aq) and KHCO3(aq) NaCl(aq) and NaOH(
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

A buffer is defined as an aqueous mixture of a weak acid and its conjugate base or vice versa.

In the systems:

H₂CO₃(aq) and KHCO₃(aq): Carbonic acid, H₂CO₃, is a weak acid that, in solution with its conjugate pair, HCO₃⁻ make a <em>buffer system.</em>

NaCl(aq) and NaOH(aq): NaCl is a salt and NaOH is a strong base. Thus, this system <em>is not </em> a buffer system.

H₂O(l) and HCl(aq): Water is a solvent and HCl a strong acid. This <em>is not </em>a buffer system.

HCl(aq) and NaOH(aq): HCl is a strong acid and NaOH a strong base. This <em>is not </em>a buffer system.

NaCl(aq) and NaNO₃(aq): Both NaCl and NaNO₃ are salts and this system <em>is not </em>a buffer system.
