On the basis of the information above, a buffer with a pH = 9 can best be made by using
telo118 [61]

Answer:

D H2PO4– + HPO42–

Explanation:

The acid dissociation constant for \mathbf{H_3PO_4 , H_2PO^{-}_4 ,  HPO_4^{2-}} are \mathbf{7\times 10^{-3}, \ \ 8\times 10^{-8} ,\ \  5\times 10^{-13}} respectively.

\mathbf{pka (H_3PO_4) = -log (7\times 10^{-3} )=2.2}

\mathbf{pka (H_2PO_4^-) = -log (8\times 10^{-8} )=7.1}

\mathbf{pka (HPO_4^{2-}) = -log (5\times 10^{-13} )=12.3}

The reason while option D is the best answer is that, the value of pKa for both

\mathbf{H_2PO^{-}_4 ,\  \& \  HPO_4^{2-}} lies on either side of the desired pH of the buffer. This implies that one is slightly over and the other is slightly under.

Using Henderson-Hasselbach equation:

\mathbf{pH = pKa + log \Big( \dfrac{HPO_4^{2-}}{H_2PO_4^-} \Big)}

The proper answer gets marked brainiest, answer what the question is asking.
Keith_Richards [23]

A substance is an element if it consists of a single type of atom. A substance is a compound if it is made up of more than one element.

<h3>Elements and compounds</h3>

In chemistry, an element is defined as all pure substances consisting of the same atom. For example, magnesium and potassium metal are all elements because they consist of magnesium and potassium atoms only.

On the other hand, compounds are defined as substances consisting of 2 or more atoms of different elements. For example, sodium chloride consists of atoms of sodium and chlorine. Hence, it is considered to be a compound.

What do you already know about fossils? Describe as much as you can in the space below.
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

Fossils are remains or traces from ancient life's that is most likely buried in rocks anywhere in the world. Fossils are basically bones, teeth, shells, nests, leaf impressions, and footprints. That is technically explaining what our planet was like long ago. Some dinosaur fossils have been found. Paleontologists find them almost everywhere. If you don't know what Paleontologists are, they're basically people who study fossils. A lot of fossils are found in sedimentary rocks. Sedimentary is a rock that has been formed from things like sand, mud, and many other kinds of rocks.

Hope this helps.
