Hello!

When HI is added, the buffer reacts in the following way:

1) Neutralizing of the Acid:

HI + NH₄OH → NH₄I + H₂O

2) Dissociation of the salt of a weak acid:

NH₄I → NH₄⁺(aq) + I⁻ (aq)

3) Dissociation of a weak acid to form H₃O⁺ (very little):

NH₄⁺ + H₂O ⇄ NH₃ + H₃O⁺

This series of reactions show how the adding of a strong Acid can be neutralized by the buffer, releasing instead very little amounts of Hydronium ions.

Have a nice day!

Determine the boiling point of water at 620 mm Hg?
AfilCa [17]
For example, at sea level the atmospheric pressure is 760 mm Hg<span> (also expressed as 760 torr, 101325 Pa, 101.3 kPa, 1013.25 mbar or 14.696 psi) and pure </span>water<span> boils at 100°C. However, in Calgary (approx. 1050m above sea level) the atmospheric pressure is approximately 670 </span>mm Hg<span>, and </span>water<span> boils at about 96.6°C.</span>

Classify each of the following as a compound, a homogeneous mixture, or a heterogeneous mixture: (a) distilled water; (b) gasoli
Marina CMI [18]

Explanation:

A mixture which shows presence of uniform composition of solute particles into the solvent is known as a homogeneous mixture.

  • Distilled water is a clear solution in which there is uniform composition of solute particles into the solution.
  • Gasoline is mixture of different compounds which are evenly distributed. Therefore, it is also a homogeneous mixture.
  • Wine is also a clear solution in which particles are evenly distributed. Hence, it is a homogeneous mixture.

On the other hand, a mixture which shows non-uniform composition of solute particles into the solvent is known as a heterogeneous mixture.

  • Beach sand is a mixture of different particles present in varying composition. Hence, it is a heterogeneous mixture.
  • Also, in air there are different gases present in different composition. Mover over, there is presence of fog and smoke into the air. Hence, it is a heterogeneous mixture.
