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

Two chemicals A and B are combined to form a chemical C. The rate, or velocity, of the reaction is proportional to the product o
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

Follows are the solution:

Explanation:

A + B = C

Its response decreases over time as well as consumption of a reactants.  

r = -kAB

during response A convert into 2x while B convert into x to form 3x of C

let's  y = C

y = 3x

Still not converted sum of reaction  

for A: 100 - 2x

for B: 50 - x

Shift of x over time  

\frac{dx}{dt} = \frac{-k(100 - 2x)}{(50 - x)}

Integration of x as regards t  

\frac{1}{[(100 - 2x)(50 - x)]} dx = -k dt\\\\\frac{1}{2[(50 - x)(50 - x)]} dx = -k dt\\\\\ integral\  \frac{1}{2[(50 - x)^2]} dx =\ integral [-k ] \ dt\\\\\frac{-1}{[100-2x]} = -kt + D \\\\

D is the constant of integration

initial conditions: t = 0, x = 0

\frac{-1}{[100-2x]} = -kt + D   \\\\\frac{ -1}{[100]} = 0 + D\\\\D= \frac{-1}{100}\\\\

hence we get:

\frac{-1}{[100-2x]}= -kt -\frac{1}{100}\\\\or \\\\ \frac{1}{(100-2x)} = kt + \frac{1}{100}

after t = 7 minutes , C = 10 \ g = 3x

3x = 10\\\\x = \frac{10}{3}

Insert the above value x into \frac{1}{(100-2x)} equation = kt + \frac{1}{100} to get k.  

\to  \frac{1}{(100-2\times \frac{10}{3})}  = k \times (7) + \frac{1}{100} \\\\ \to  \frac{1}{(100- 2 \times 3.33)} =   \frac{700k + 1}{100} \\\\ \to  \frac{1}{(100-6.66)} = \frac{700k + 1}{100}\\\\ \to \frac{1}{93.34} = \frac{700k + 1}{100} \\\\

\to 100 =  93.34(700k + 1) \\\\ \to 100 =  65,338k + 700 \\\\ \to   65,338k =  -600 \\\\ \to  k =  \frac{-600}{ 65,338} \\\\ \to k= - 0.0091

therefore plugging in the equation the above value of k  

\to \frac{1}{(100-2x)} = kt +\frac{1}{100} \\\\\to \frac{1}{(100-2x)} = -0.0091t + \frac{1}{100}\\\\\to \frac{1}{(100-2x)} =  \frac{1 -0.91t}{100}\\\\\to \frac{1}{2(50-x)} =  \frac{1 -0.91t}{100}\\\\\to \frac{1}{(50-x)} =  \frac{1 -0.91t}{50}\\\\\to 50= (1-0.91t)(50-x)\\\\\to 50 = 50-45.5t-x-0.91tx\\\\\to x+0.91xt= -45.5t\\\\\to x(1+0.91t)= -45.5t\\\\\to x=\frac{-45.5t}{1+0.91t}

Let y = C

, calculate C:

y = 3x

y =3 \times \frac{-45.5t}{1+0.91t}

amount of C formed in 28 mins

x = \frac{-45.5t}{1+0.91t} , plug t = 28

\to x = \frac{-1274}{1+25.48} \\\\\to x = \frac{-1274}{26.48} \\\\\to x= -48.26

therefore amount of C formed in 28 minutes is = 3x = 144.78 grams

C: y =3 \times \frac{-45.5t}{1+0.91t}

y= 136.5 =137

What is the relationship between mole, Avogadro number and mass?
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

The mass of one mole of a substance is equal to that substance's molecular weight. ... water is 18.015 atomic mass units (amu), so one mole of water weight 18.015 grams. ... Avogadro's number is a proportion that relates molar mass on an atomic ... one molecule of water (H2O), one mole of oxygen (6.022×1023 of O atoms)

If 11.0 g of ccl3f is enclosed in a 1.1 −l container, will any liquid be present?if so, what mass of liquid?
Anastasy [175]
Considering that CCL3F gas behave like an ideal gas then we can use the Ideal Gas Law 
<span>PV = nRT, however is an approximation and not the only way to resolve this problem with the given data..So,at the end of the solution I am posting some sources for further understanding and a expanded point of view. </span>

<span>Data: P= 856torr, T = 300K, V= 1.1L, R = 62.36 L Torr / KMol </span>

<span>Solving and substituting in the Gas equation for n = PV / RT = (856)(1.1L) /( 62.36)(300) = 0.05 Mol. This RESULT is of any gas. To tie it up to our gas we need to look for its molecular weight:MW of CCL3F = 137.7 gm/mol.  </span>

<span>Then : 0.05x 137.5 = 6.88gm of vapor </span>

<span>If we sustract the vapor weight from the TOTAL weight of liquid we have: 11.5gm - 6.88gm = 4.62 gm of liquid.d</span>

When the nuclide bismuth-210 undergoes alpha decay:
pishuonlain [190]

Explanation:

An atom undergoes alpha decay by losing a helium atom.

So when bismuth undergoes alpha decay, we have;

²¹⁰₈₃Bi --> ⁴₂He + X

Mass number;

210 = 4 + x

x = 206

Atomic number;

83 = 2 + x

x = 81

The element is Thallium. The symbol is Ti.

For the second part;

X --> ⁴₂He + ²³⁴₉₀Th

Mass number;

x = 4 + 234 = 238

Atomic Number;

x = 2 + 90 = 92

The balanced nuclear equation is;

²³⁸₉₂U --> ⁴₂He + ²³⁴₉₀Th
