A buffer is a solution that is a mixture of either a weak acid and its conjugate base or a weak base and its conjugate acid. Whe

n strong acids or strong bases are added, buffers either accept protons when they are in excess or donate protons when they have been depleted to minimize changes in pH. Which of the statements correctly describe the properties of a buffer? Select one or more: a. The conjugate acid of an alkaline buffer will accept hydrogen protons when a strong base is added to the solution. b. The weak base of an alkaline buffer will accept hydrogen protons when a strong acid is added to the solution. c. The weak base of an alkaline buffer will donate hydrogen protons when a strong acid is added to the solution. d. The conjugate acid of an alkaline buffer will donate hydrogen protons when a strong base is added to the solution. e. An alkaline buffer solution is a mixture of a weak base and its conjugate acid. f. An alkaline buffer solution is a mixture of a weak acid and its conjugate base.

Answer:

b. The weak base of an alkaline buffer will accept hydrogen protons when a strong acid is added to the solution

d.The conjugate acid of an alkaline buffer will donate hydrogen protons when a strong base is added to the solution.

Explanation:

A buffer is a solution that resist pH change, it shows minimal change upon addition of small amount of strong acid or strong base. An alkaline buffer will have a  basic pH, above 7. It is made by mixing a weak base and its salt with a strong acid. An example of an alkaline buffer is carbonate-bicarbonate buffer that is prepared using varying amount of anhydrous sodium carbonate and volume of solution of sodium bicarbonate to get pH range between 9.2 to 10.7

Within the buffer,the salt is completely ionized while the weak base is partly ionized. on addition of acid, the released protons will be removed by the bicarbonate ion to form sodium carbonate; on addition of base, the hydroxide ion released by the base will be removed by the hydrogen ions to form water and the pH remains relatively the same

Answer:

Alright the very first thing you need to do is balance the equation:

2HCl + Na2CO3 -----> 2NaCl + CO2 + H2O

Now we need to find the limiting reactant by converting the volume to moles of both HCl and Na2CO3.

Volume x Concentration/molarity = moles

0.235L x 0.6 M = 0.141 moles / molar ratio of 2 = 0.0705 moles of HCl

0.094L x 0.75 M = 0.0705 moles /molar ratio of 1  = 0.0705 moles of Na2CO3

Since both of the moles are equal, it means the entire reaction is complete (while the identification of limiting reactant may seem like an unnecessary step, it's quite essential in stoichiometry, so keep an eye out) and there is no excess of any reactant.

Now we know that the product we want to calculate is aqueous so, following the law of conservation of mass, we should add both volumes together to calculate how much volume we could get for NaCl.

0.235 + 0.094 = 0.329L of NaCl

Now we apply the C1V1 = C2V2 equation using the concentration and volume of Na2CO3 because it's molar ratio is one to one to NaCl (You can also use HCL, but you have to divide their moles by 2 for the molar ratio)  and the volume we just calculated for NaCl.

(0.75M) x (0.094L) = C2 x (0.329L)

Rearrange equation to solve for C2:

<u>(0.75M) x (0.094L)</u>  =  C2

    (0.329L)

C2 = 0.214 M (Rounded)

<u>When the reaction is finished, the NaCl solution will have a molarity concentration of 0.214 M.</u>

What is the volume of 0.80 grams of O2 gas at STP? (5 points) Group of answer choices 0.59 liters 0.56 liters 0.50 liters 0.47 l
Anarel [89]

Answer:

0.56 liters

Explanation:

First we <u>convert 0.80 grams of O₂ into moles</u>, using its molar mass:

  • 0.80 g ÷ 32 g/mol = 0.025 mol

At STP, 1 mol of any given mass occupies 22.4 L. With that information in mind we <u>calculate the volume that 0.025 moles of O₂ gas would occupy</u>:

  • 0.025 mol * 22.4 L/mol = 0.56 L

Thus the answer is 0.56 liters.

7. A species is _ when its population has become so low that it is close to becoming extinct
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

Endangered. The meaning of endangered is when a species declines in number- this might be because they are being eaten by another animal which has a higher popupayion, or perhaps because they are being hunted by humans for their meat or fur. Neither reason might be that their food or habitat has been destroyed b humans to create land for farming or housing. one example of name endangered species is Polar Bears: they like in the Antarctic where there is no land, simply ice. Due to humans causing climate change, the world is warming up and the ice is melting. This means polar bears are dying out because it would be too tiring to swim to find ice. For the same reason, other animals are dying in the Antarctic meaning that Poplar Bears have less to eat (being at the top of the food chain -no animal eats polar bears).

If kc = 7.04 × 10-2 for the reaction: 2 hbr(g) ⇌h2(g) + br2(g), what is the value of kc for the reaction: 1/2 h2(g) + 1/2 br2 ⇌h
Kay [80]
At the first reaction when 2HBr(g) ⇄ H2(g) + Br2(g)
So Kc = [H2] [Br2] / [HBr]^2
7.04X10^-2 = [H2][Br] / [HBr]^2

at the second reaction when 1/2 H2(g) + 1/2 Br2 (g) ⇄ HBr
Its Kc value will = [HBr] / [H2]^1/2*[Br2]^1/2
we will make the first formula of Kc upside down:
1/7.04X10^-2 = [HBr]^2/[H2][Br2]
and by taking the square root: 
∴ √(1/7.04X10^-2)= [HBr] / [H2]^1/2*[Br]^1/2
∴ Kc for the second reaction = √(1/7.04X10^-2) = 3.769
