A formula unit is the same as the empirical formula of a compound or an ionic molecule. It is the lowest ratio of the atoms in the compound or ion. Zinc acetate ions dissociates into zinc ions and acetate ions. The dissociation reaction is expressed as follows:
Zn(O2CCH3)2 = Zn2+ + 2(O2CCH3)1-

We determine the amount of acetate ions produced as follows:

Moles Zn(O2CCH3)2 = (3 formula units Zn(O2CCH3)2) ( 1 mol / 6.022x10^23 formula units) = 4.98x10^-24 mol Zn(O2CCH3)2
moles (O2CCH3)1- = 4.98x10^-24 mol Zn(O2CCH3)2 ( 2 mol (O2CCH3)1- / 1 mol Zn(O2CCH3)2 ) = 9.96x10^-24 mol (O2CCH3)1-
# of acetate ions = 9.96x10^-24 mol (O2CCH3)1- ( 6.022x10^23 ions / 1 mol (O2CCH3)1-) = 6 acetate ions

Which of the following is not a property of a buffer solution? a) It is a mixture of a weak acid and its conjugate base. b) Resi
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

e) pH is independent of concentration.

Explanation:

a) It is a mixture of a weak acid and its conjugate base. <em>TRUE. </em>A buffer is defined as a mixture of a weak acid and its conjugate base or a weak base and its conjugate acid.

b) Resists pH changes because it reacts with added acid or base. <em>TRUE. </em>Thermodynamically, the reaction of added acid or base is faster with the buffer mixture than with H⁺ or OH⁻ ions of the solutions.

c) The maximum buffer capacity is at pH = pKa. <em>TRUE. </em>The buffer capacity is pka±1. For this, buffer capacity is maximum in pka.

d) pH is dependent on the solution ionic strength and temperature. <em>TRUE.</em> Ionic strength and temperature are factors that influence concentrations of ions in solutions as the H⁺ ion that is the responsible

e) pH is independent of concentration. <em>FALSE. </em>pH in a buffer depends completely of concentrations of the acid and its conjugate base or vice versa.

I hope it helps!

Can someone help with this please? My teacher isnt responding to any of mine or my classmates requests for help
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

CO2 consists of individual molecules with one central carbon atom double bonded to two oxygen atoms. Silicon does not form double bonds with oxygen. CO2 is gas but SiO2 is a solid because SiO2 has a giant molecular structure. CO2 has a simple molecular structure, and because of this, CO2 is gas but SiO2 is solid at room temperature.
