n the laboratory, two forms of sodium phosphate will be available (the monobasic monohydrate NaH2PO4·H2O, F.W. = 137.99 g/mol, a

nd the dibasic Na2HPO4, F.W. = 141.96 g/mol). Explain the most efficient way of making this phosphate buffer by using only one of the compounds, and specify which compound you will use.

Answer:

The compound you will use is the Dibasic phosphate

Explanation:

Simple phosphate buffer is used ubiquitously in biological experiments, as it can be adapted to a variety of pH levels, including isotonic. This wide range is due to phosphoric acid having 3 dissociation constants, (known in chemistry as a triprotic acid) allowing for formulation of buffers near each of the pH levels of 2.15, 6.86, or 12.32. Phosphate buffer is highly water soluble and has a high buffering capacity,

In this case the most efficient way is to disolve the dibasic compound which in the reaction with the water will form the monobasic phosphate.

To make the buffer you have to prepare the amount of distillate water needed, disolve the dibasic phospate, and then adjust with HCl or NaOH depending on the pH needed.

A generator does work on an electric heater by forcing an electric current through it. Suppose 1 kJ of work is done on the heate
azamat

Answer:

The change in internal energy of the heater is 0 kJ

Explanation:

∆U = Q - W

Q is quantity of heat transferred = 1 kJ

W is work done on the heater = 1 kJ

Change in internal energy (∆U) = 1 - 1 = 0 kJ

Bombardment of cobalt-59 with a neutron produces a manganese-56 atom and another particle. What is this particle?A. an alpha par
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:A

Explanation:

A nuclear reaction is balanced by ensuring that the Masses and charges of te reactants and products are exactly balanced on the left and right hand side of the reaction equation. If there are 60 mass units on the LHS and manganese has only 56 mass units then four mass units are left. If there is no charge on a neutron and there is a charge of 27 on the cobalt, then two charges are left. Four mass units and a charge of +2 corresponds to a helium which is actually an alpha particle.
