Answer:

Is a substance that can maintain  certain range of pH

Explanation:

A buffer is mixture of two salts that are complementary, one salt is acid and another is basic, but since then share some part of their structure, if you add to this mixture another acid, the basic salt can absorb it and still maintaining the same pH. If you pour a base, the acid salt will absorb it and again the final pH will remain the same. So the buffers are used to maintain the same pH does not matter if you add small quantities of an acid or base.

What adaptation do lungfish have te help them walk and live on land?
Viktor [21]

Answer: biological adaptation

Explanation:

lungfish's lung is a biological adaptation. A biological adaptation is a physical change in an organism that develops over time. Like all fish, lungfish have organs known as gills to extract oxygen from water. The biological adaptation of the lung allows lungfish to also extract oxygen from the air.

I hope this helps :).

How do I solve this?
Oliga [24]

Answer:

The heat contained is 1236 Joules

Explanation:

As we know

Q = mc\DeltaT

Where

\DeltaT is the change in temperature

m is the mass in grams

c is the specific heat of water (ice) = 2.06 joules/gram

Substituting the given values, we get -

Q = 20 * (-15+45)*2.06\\Q = 20*2.06*30\\Q = 1236Joules

Given: CaC2 + N2 → CaCN2 + C In this chemical reaction, how many grams of N2 must be consumed to produce 265 grams of CaCN2? Exp
weeeeeb [17]

Answer : The grams of N_2 consumed is, 89.6 grams.

Solution : Given,

Mass of CaCN_2 = 265 g

Molar mass of CaCN_2 = 80 g/mole

Molar mass of N_2 = 28 g/mole

First we have to calculate the moles of CaCN_2.

\text{Moles of }CaCN_2=\frac{\text{Mass of }CaCN_2}{\text{Molar mass of }CaCN_2}=\frac{265g}{80g/mole}=3.2moles

The given balanced reaction is,

CaC_2+N_2\rightarrow CaCN_2+C

from the reaction, we conclude that

As, 1 mole of CaCN_2 produces from 1 mole of N_2

So, 3.2 moles of CaCN_2 produces from 3.2 moles of N_2

Now we have to calculate the mass of N_2

\text{Mass of }N_2=\text{Moles of }N_2\times \text{Molar mass of }N_2

\text{Mass of }N_2=(3.2moles)\times (28g/mole)=89.6g

Therefore, the grams of N_2 consumed is, 89.6 grams.
