Solutions of sodium acetate and acetic acid are combined in equal volume to produce a buffer. Identify the combination that will

produce the buffer with the highest buffer capacity. Select one: a. 0.01 M CH3COOH , 0.1 M CH3COONa b. 0.1 M CH3COOH , 0.1 M CH3COONa c. 0.1 M CH3COOH , 0.01 M CH3COONa d. 0.01 M CH3COOH , 0.01 M CH3COONa

Answer:

Option b=> 0.1 M CH3COOH , 0.1 M CH3COONa.

Explanation:

In chemistry, when an acid or a base(alkali) is added to a solution and the solution pH does not change then we say that the solution is a BUFFER SOLUTION (that is a solution, upon the addition of acid or base will show resistance in pH value).

In order to be able to answer this question efficiently we have to consider the mathematical representation or Equation below;

pH = pKa + log ( [ A^-] / [HA] )--------------------------------------------------------------------(1).

What the mathematical representation or Equation (1) above is telling is is that if [A^-] or [HA] is high then there will be the production of buffer with higher buffer capacity.

What factor affects both kinetic energy and gravitational potential energy?
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

The kinetic energy of an object is also measured in joules. Anything that is moving has kinetic energy, but various factors affect how much kinetic energy an object has. The first factor is speed. If two identical objects are moving at different speeds, the faster object has more kinetic energy.  In physics, the kinetic energy  of an object is the energy that it possesses due to its motion. It is defined as the work needed to accelerate a body of a given mass from rest to its stated velocity. Having gained this energy during its acceleration, the body maintains this kinetic energy unless its speed changes. The same amount of work is done by the body when decelerating from its current speed to a state of rest.

an atom has a charge of -3 in its orbitals which statement must be true in order for this atom to have no net charge
NISA [10]

Answer:

The atom must lose its three extra electrons to make the atom over all neutral.

Explanation:

The three subatomic particles construct an atom electron, proton and neutron. A neutral atom have equal number of proton and electron. In other words we can say that negative and positive charges are equal in magnitude and cancel the each other. For example if neutral atom has 6 protons than it must have 6 electrons.

If an atom have -3 charge it means three more electrons are added. In order to make the atom overall neutral three more electrons must be removed so that negative and positive charge becomes equal and cancel the effect of each other and make the atom neutral.

Electron:

The electron is subatomic particle that revolve around outside the nucleus and has negligible mass. It has a negative charge.

Symbol= e⁻

Mass= 9.10938356×10⁻³¹ Kg

It was discovered by j. j. Thomson in 1897 during the study of cathode ray properties.

Proton and neutron:

While neutron and proton are present inside the nucleus. Proton has positive charge while neutron is electrically neutral. Proton is discovered by Rutherford while neutron is discovered by James Chadwick in 1932.

Symbol of proton= P⁺

Symbol of neutron= n⁰

Mass of proton=1.672623×10⁻²⁷ Kg

Mass of neutron=1.674929×10⁻²⁷ Kg
