Vinil7 [7]3 years ago

Answer:

So, basically Homeostasis is regulation and the. one seen almost every day is shivering or sweating. Our body's normal temperature is approximately 37° C and if you drop below that your body will regulate that by shivering or if you go above it you'll start to sweat to cool off you body and decrease your body temperature back to "equilibrium" or normal temp.

What is emitted when an electron returns to its lower energy level?
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

When the electron changes levels, it decreases energy and the atom emits photons. The photon is emitted with the electron moving from a higher energy level to a lower energy level. The energy of the photon is the exact energy that is lost by the electron moving to its lower energy level.

A standard solution of FeSCN2+ is prepared by combining 9.0 mL of 0.20 M Fe(NO3)3 with 1.0 mL of 0.0020 M KSCN . The standard so
Xelga [282]

Answer : The equilibrium concentration of SCN^- in the trial solution is 4.58\times 10^{-8}M

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the initial moles of Fe^{3+} and SCN^-.

\text{Moles of }Fe^{3+}=\text{Concentration of }Fe^{3+}\times \text{Volume of solution}

\text{Moles of }Fe^{3+}=0.20M\times 9.0mL=1.8mmol

and,

\text{Moles of }SCN^-=\text{Concentration of }SCN^-\times \text{Volume of solution}

\text{Moles of }SCN^-=0.0020M\times 1.0mL=0.0020mmol

The given balanced chemical reaction is,

Fe^{3+}(aq)+SCN^-(aq)\rightleftharpoons FeSCN^{2+}(aq)

Since 1 mole of Fe^{3+} reacts with 1 mole of SCN^- to give 1 mole of FeSCN^{2+}

The limiting reagent is, SCN^-

So, the number of moles of FeSCN^{2+} = 0.0020 mmole

Now we have to calculate the concentration of FeSCN^{2+}.

\text{Concentration of }FeSCN^{2+}=\frac{0.0020mmol}{9.0mL+1.0mL}=0.00020M

Using Beer-Lambert's law :

A=\epsilon \times C\times l

where,

A = absorbance of solution

C = concentration of solution

l = path length

\epsilon = molar absorptivity coefficient

\epsilon and l are same for stock solution and dilute solution. So,

\epsilon l=\frac{A}{C}=\frac{0.480}{0.00020M}=2400M^{-1}

For trial solution:

The equilibrium concentration of SCN^- is,

[SCN^-]_{eqm}=[SCN^-]_{initial}-[FeSCN^{2+}]

[SCN^-]_{initial} = 0.00050 M

Now calculate the [FeSCN^{2+}].

C=\frac{A}{\epsilon l}=\frac{0.220}{2400M^{-1}}=9.17\times 10^{-5}M

Now calculate the concentration of SCN^-.

[SCN^-]_{eqm}=[SCN^-]_{initial}-[FeSCN^{2+}]

[SCN^-]_{eqm}=(0.00050M)-(9.17\times 10^{-5}M)

[SCN^-]_{eqm}=4.58\times 10^{-8}M

Therefore, the equilibrium concentration of SCN^- in the trial solution is 4.58\times 10^{-8}M

g If a small amount of a strong acid is added to a buffer made up of a weak acid, HA, and the sodium salt of its conjugate base,
ikadub [295]

Answer:

Explanation is in the answer

Explanation:

The pH of the buffer solution does not change appreciably because the strong acid (free H⁺) reacts with conjugate base of buffer producing more weak acid. pH formula of buffers is (Henderson-Hasselbalch formula):

pH = pKa + log ( [A⁻] / [HA] )

The addition of strong acid decreases [A⁻] increasing [HA]. pH change just in the log of the ratio of [A⁻] with [HA], that is a real little effect over pH of the buffer solution.
