A buffer contains significant amounts of ammonia and ammonium chloride.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Oksanka [162]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

a. HCl + NH₃ ⇄ NH₄Cl

b. KOH + NH₄⁺ ⇄ K⁺ + NH₃ + H₂O

Explanation:

A buffer system is made by a weak base (ammonia, NH₃) and its conjugate acid (ammonium ion NH₄⁺ coming from ammonium chloride NH₄Cl). Its function is to resist abrupt changes in the pH when acids or bases are added.

a. When aqueous hydrochloric acid is added, it reacts with the base of the buffer. The corresponding equation is:

HCl + NH₃ ⇄ NH₄Cl

b. When aqueous potassium hydroxide is added, it reacts with the acid of the buffer. The corresponding equation is:

KOH + NH₄⁺ ⇄ K⁺ + NH₃ + H₂O

Chemical energy is a form of _____ energy.
inn [45]

Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer

Explanation:

The energy present within the bonds of the atoms of a compound or molecule is known as chemical energy.

As this energy is present at a position that is, within the bonds hence it is a potential energy. So, whenever there occurs a chemical reaction the stored chemical energy is released.

As potential energy is the energy possessed because of position of a substance. And, kinetic energy is the energy present due to the motion of an object.

Therefore, we can conclude that chemical energy is a form of potential energy.

How many ml of a 0.155 m kcl solution contain 2.55 g kcl?
son4ous [18]
To determine te volume of the solution given the amount of solute present, we simply divide the amount in moles with the concentration in molarity. First, we make sure the amount of solute is expressed in moles.

moles KCl = 2.55 g KCl / 74.55 g/mol = 0.0342 mol KCl

Volume of solution = 0.0342 mol / 0.155 mol /L = 0.221 L solution or 221 mL of the solution
