Answer:The solid is less dense than the liquid

Explanation:

Ice is less dense than water because of the crevices or spaces in the lattice structure of ice. Liquid water has a much greater density than solid water because its molecules are more compactly packed than in ice. Ice has large spaces between the hydrogen bonded water molecules hence less density than the liquid. Being less dense than !liquid water, it floats on water.

Buffering capacity refers to: the effectiveness of commercial antacids the extent to which a buffer solution can counteract the
kirill [66]

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Buffere is defined as the solution to whom when an acid or base is added then it resists any in change in pH of the solution.

This is because a buffer has the ability to not get affected by the addition of small amounts of an acid or a base. So, basically it keeps the concentration of both hydrogen ions and hydroxides equal. As a result, it helps in maintaining the pH of the solution.

And, the capacity of a buffer solution to resist the change is known as buffer capacity.

Thus, we can conclude that buffering capacity refers to the extent to which a buffer solution can counteract the effect of added acid or base.
