In buffer solution there is an equilibrium between the acid HA and its conjugate base A⁻: HA(aq) ⇌ H⁺(aq) + A⁻(aq).
When acid (H⁺ ions) is added to the buffer solution, the equilibrium is shifted to the left, because conjugate base (A⁻) reacts with hydrogen cations from added acid, according to Le Chatelier's principle: H⁺(aq) + A⁻(aq) ⇄ HA(aq). So, the conjugate base (A⁻) consumes some hydrogen cations and pH is not decreasing (less H⁺ ions, higher pH of solution).
A buffer can be defined as a substance that prevents the pH of a solution from changing by either releasing or absorbing H⁺ in a solution.
Buffer is a solution that can resist pH change upon the addition of an acidic or basic components and it is able to neutralize small amounts of added acid or base, pH of the solution is relatively stable
The options for given question are as follow,
1) Methane molecules show hydrogen bonding.
<span>2) Ammonia molecules show hydrogen bonding. </span>
<span>3) Methane has stronger hydrogen bonding than ammonia. </span>
<span>4) Both the compounds do not show hydrogen bonding. </span>
<span>5) Both the compounds have strong hydrogen bonding.
</span>
Answer:
Correct answer is Option-2 (Ammonia molecules show hydrogen bonding).
Explanation:
Hydrogen bond interactions are formed when a partial positive hydrogen atom attached to most electronegative atom of one molecule interacts with the partial negative most electronegative element of another molecule. So, in Ammonia hydrogen gets partial positive charge as nitrogen is highly electronegative. While the C-H bond in Methane is non-polar and fails to form hydrogen bond interactions.
Explanation:
In a double displacement reaction, there is an actual exchange of partners to form new compounds.
The reaction is given as shown below:
AB + CD → AD + CB
One of the following conditions serves as the driving force for a double replacement reaction:
- Formation of an insoluble compound or precipitate
- Formation of water or any other non-ionizing compound
- Liberation of a gaseous product.
The answer is strong winds
