Select the statements that correctly describe buffers.

Chemistry
1 answer:
VARVARA [1.3K]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

B) The pH of a buffer solution does not change significantly when a small amount of acid is added.

C) The pH of a buffer solution is determined by the ratio of the concentration of acid to the concentration of base.

Explanation:

Buffer solution is useful in maintaining the pH of a solution constant . It is made of a weak acid and its salt or a weak base and  its salt . Ph of a buffer is given by the following relation .

pH = pKa + log [ A⁻ ] / [ HA ]

A- is a base and HA is a weak acid .

When we add acid , it reacts with A⁻ or base and gets neutralised .

When we add base , it reacts with acid HA and gets neutralised . In this way it maintains the pH of the solution .

if 50.0 ml of a 1.00 M HCl solution and 45.0 ml of a 1.00 M NaOH solution are combined, which reagent is limiting?
Setler79 [48]
The answer to this question would be: <span>NaOH solution 

Limiting reagent is the reagent that totally consumed in the reaction. To answer this question you need to know the equation for the chemical reaction. The equation would be:
</span><span>HCl + NAOH = H2O + NACl
</span>
All of the coefficient in the reaction is 1, which mean 1 HCl will react to 1 NaOH. In this question, the concentration of HCl and NaOH is same so the amount of the molecule can be reflected by the volume. NaOH has lower volume compared to HCl so it is clear that NaOH will be totally consumed in this reaction.

In creating a covalent bond, it would be best to bind sulfur to:
valentina_108 [34]
Sulfur is best to bind with oxygen. A covalent bond is a bond between two nonmetal elements. Aluminum is a metalloid and sodium is a metal. Both can't be bonded with sulfur. Neon isn't a metal but is a group 18 element, it's a noble gas. And a noble gas cannot be combined with any element because it already achieved a total of 8 valence electrons. Oxygen on the other hand can be bonded with sulfur since both are non metals
