KH₂PO₄ hydrolyzes as;
H₂PO₄⁻ + H₂O ↔ H₃PO₄ + OH⁻
Let x amount of H₂PO₄⁻ has reacted with water then,
Kb₁ = [H₃PO₄][OH⁻] / [H₂PO₄⁻]
[H₂PO₄⁻] = 0.8-x M
Kb₁ = x² / (0.8 - x)
Given Ka₁ = 7.5 x 10⁻³
so Kb₁ = 1 x 10⁻¹⁴ / (7.5 x 10⁻³) = 1.33 x 10⁻¹²
From this information:
1.33 x 10⁻¹² = x² / 0.8
x = [OH⁻] = 1.03 x 10⁻⁶ M
pOH = - log (1.03 x 10⁻⁶) = 5.99
pH = 14 - pOH = 14 - 5.99 = 8.01

oksano4ka [1.4K]

Assume an original volume of blood of one deciliter (100 ml). if 5 ml of oxygen diffuses into the blood, 100 ml will be its final volume.

A tissue is made up of white blood cells, platelets, red blood cells, and other elements suspended in a liquid. Blood transports waste away and delivers nutrients and oxygen to the tissues. The entire amount of fluid moving through the heart's arteries, capillaries, veins, venules, and chambers is referred to as blood volume. Red blood cells (erythrocytes), white blood cells (leukocytes), platelets, and plasma are the elements that give blood volume.

The amount of water and sodium ingested, expelled by the kidneys into the urine, and lost through the digestive system, lungs, and skin determines blood volume. The amounts of salt and water that are consumed and excreted vary greatly.

When molten candle wax solidifies is that a chemical reaction or not?l
andrey2020 [161]

Yes, when molten candle wax solidifies it is a chemical reaction

<u>Explanation:</u>

Basically Wax is crystalline so once the candle light melts it freezes taking back the solid state to the room temperature.

When the room temperature is below the freezing point, the liquid candle wax, turns into solid state again, therefore this process is called solidification. The process of freezing or solidification is a process when an object turns liquid and freezes back to solid state.

Indeed, Yes, when molten candle wax solidifies it is a chemical reaction

As you move from left to right across the periodic table elements ?
Sidana [21]

Explanation:

Quite a number of properties varies across a period. Some remains constant whereas others decreases.

As one moves from left to right;

  • The energy level remains the same.
  • The ionization energy increases progressively as a result of increasing nuclear charge.
  • Electron affinity increases from left to right.
  • Electronegativity increases.
  • Electropositivity decreases.
