1. In an equilibrium experiment, acetic acid (which is a weak acid) is mixed with sodium acetate (a soluble salt), with methyl o

koban [17]

Explanation:

It is known that acetic acid is a weak acid. It's equilibrium of dissociation will be represented as follows.

$CH_{3}COOH(aq) + H_{2}O(l) \rightleftharpoons CH_{3}COO^{-}(aq) + H_{3}O^{+}(aq)$

On the other hand, sodium acetate ( $CH_{3}COONa$ ) is a salt of weak acid, that is, $CH_{3}COOH$ and strong base, that is, NaOH. Therefore, aqueous solution of sodium acetate will be basic in nature.

Since, acetic acid is a weak acid but still it is an acid. So, when methyl orange is added in a solution of acetic acid then it given a reddish-orange color because of its acidity.

When sodium acetate is mixed into this solution then it will dissociate as follows.

$CH_{3}COO^{-}Na^{+}(aq) \rightleftharpoons CH_{3}COO^{-}(aq) + Na^{+}(aq)$

As both solutions are liberating acetate ion upon dissociation. Hence, it is the common ion.

So, when more acetate ions will increase from dissociation of sodium acetate the according to Le Chatelier's principle the equilibrium will shift on left side.

As a result, there will be decrease in the concentration of hydronium ions. As a result, there will be increase in the pH of the system.

Hence, color of methyl orange will change from reddish orange to yellow. This shift in equilibrium is due to the common ion which is $CH_{3}COO^{-}$ ion.

A physician may need to increase a patient's prescribed dosage if he or she has developed what?

antoniya [11.8K]

The answer to this question would be: resistance

When a patient developing a resistance to a certain drug, the same amount of doses will not exert the same effect as before. The effect will be lower, thus the doctor will need to increase the dose to increase the effect

How water deposits soil sediment and rock

n200080 [17]

<span>A river can only carry a load if it has adequate energy. When the energy drops below a certain level, therefore, the load is dropped. In the Thalweg (the line of fastest flow), more load is carried, and this is also where the erosion occurs, adding more load. On the inside of a meander, for example, since the Thalweg is on the outside, the velocity on the inside is very low, and so deposition occurs. On the very inside, water merely trickles past. This is incapable of transporting load, so it deposits it until it is able to carry all of it.</span>
