Answer:
The concentration and pKa of an acid and its conjugate base can limit the buffering capacity of a molecule.
Explanation:
A buffer is an acid and its conjugate base and the quality of it depends on its buffer capacity. This buffer capacity is the resistance to change the pH of the solution when strong acids or bases are added. The buffer capacity is related to the buffer concentration, the concentration of the acid end its conjugate base. Also, every acid has a pKa and the buffer capacity is at its maximum at the pKa value and can buffer the solution between ± 1 the pKa value.
We know that molarity = mol/L, so:
1.5 M = x mol/0.345 L
1.5 M * 0.345 L = x mol => 0.5175 mol
0.5175 mol/0.250 L = 2.07 M
Your new molarity of the solution will be 2.07 M.
Answer:
C
Explanation:
I'm assuming that you meant to type neutral charge.
Since electrons are negative and protons are positive, having a balanced number of both of these would cause an atom to have a neutral charge.
Answer: 0.00867 moldm-3
Explanation:
Since the reaction is 1st order,
Rate of reaction=∆[A]÷t
0.646-0.0146/72.8= 0.00867
Remember that in a first order reaction, the rate of reaction depends on change in the concentration of only one of the reaction species, A in the problem above.
