When edible oils are idle and stored for a long amount of time, they undergo oxidation due to the exposure to oxygen. This oxidation causes rancidity in oils.
Answer:
Uranium must be purified before it is used as a fuel source
Explanation:
The purer the uranium sample, the more the concentration of uranium in the fuel is.
Whenever uranium is extracted from nature, it contains a lot of impurities. Only a few special nuclear reactors can utilize uranium in this raw state. most of the others have to get uranium to become about 3% pure before they begin using it.
To do this, uranium has to be passed through a series of chemical reactions all with the aim of extracting the other compounds that may be present in the fuel.
Answer:
(a) H₃O⁺(aq) + H₂PO₄⁻(aq) ⟶ H₃PO₄(aq) + H₂O(ℓ)
(b) OH⁻(aq) + H₃O⁺(aq) ⟶ 2H₂O(ℓ)
Explanation:
The equation for your buffer equilibrium is:
H₃PO₄(aq) + H₂O(ℓ) ⇌ H₃O⁺(aq)+ H₂PO₄⁻(aq)
(a) Adding H₃O⁺
The hydronium ions react with the basic dihydrogen phosphate ions.
H₃O⁺(aq) + H₂PO₄⁻(aq) ⟶ H₃PO₄(aq) + H₂O(ℓ)
(b) Adding OH⁻
The OH⁻ ions react with the more acidic hydronium ions.
OH⁻(aq) + H₃O⁺(aq) ⟶ 2H₂O(ℓ)
