b. Na2HPO4 + NaH2PO4.

A <em>buffer </em>is a solution of a weak acid and its conjugate base. The weak acid is H2PO4^(-) and its conjugate base is HPO4^(2-).

All the other options are incorrect because they consist of only a single component.

Conociendo el volumen de la solución y la masa del soluto y su masa molar, ¿qué concentración es posible determinar

NISA [10]

Answer:

Conociendo el volumen de solución, masa de soluto y su masa molar, es posible determinar: B) Concentración molar

La molaridad es la relación entre el número de moles de soluto y los litros de solución. Más:

M = No moles de solución de soluto / volumen (L)

Y a su vez los moles de soluto se encuentran por:

No moles de soluto = masa soluto / masa molar soluto

Look at the reaction below and state which direction the reaction would shift:

alex41 [277]

Answer:

there is no shift in the state

Explanation:

The correct answer is - There is no shift in the state.

Reason -

If K > Q, a reaction will proceed forward, converting reactants into products. If K < Q, the reaction will proceed in the reverse direction, converting products into reactants. If Q = K then the system is already at equilibrium.

where Q, is the reaction Quotient

When magnesium reacts with hydrochloric acid, hydrogen gas is formed: 2HCl + Mg → H2 + MgCl2. What is the volume of hydrogen pro

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:- C. 16.4 L

Solution:- The given balanced equation is:

$2HCl+Mg\rightarrow H_2+MgCl_2$

From this equation, there is 2:1 mol ratio between HCl and hydrogen gas. First of all we calculate the moles of hydrogen gas from given grams of HCl using stoichiometry and then the volume of hydrogen gas could be calculated using ideal gas law equation, PV = nRT.

Molar mass of HCl = 1.008 + 35.45 = 36.458 gram per mol

The calculations are shown below:

$49.0gHCl(\frac{1molHCl}{36.458gHCl})(\frac{1molH_2}{2molHCl})$

= $0.672molH_2$

Now we will use ideal gas equation to calculate the volume.

n = 0.672 mol

T = 25 + 273 = 298 K

P = 101.3 kPa = 1 atm

R = $0.0821\frac{atm.L}{mol.K}$

PV = nRT

1(V) = (0.672)(0.0821)(298)

V = 16.4 L

From calculations, 16.4 L of hydrogen gas are formed and so the correct choice is C.
