Describe the buffer capacity of the acetic acid buffer solution in relation to the addition of both concentrated and dilute acid
AysviL [449]

Answer:

The answer is in the explanation

Explanation:

Acetic acid, CH₃COOH, is a weak acid that will produce a buffer when its conjugate base, CH₃COO⁻, acetate ion, is added to the solution.

<em>That is because a buffer is the mixture of a weak acid and its conjugate base or vice versa.</em>

When an acid (HX) is added to the solution, the acetate ion will react producing acetic acid, thus:

CH₃COO⁻ + HX → CH₃COOH + X⁻

For this reason, the pH doesn't change abruptly because H⁺ ions are not produced.

Now, if a  base (BOH) is added to the buffer, CH₃COOH will react producing acetate ion and water, thus:

CH₃COOH + BOH → CH₃COO⁻ + H₂O + B⁺.

In the same way, there are not produced free OH⁻ and the pH doesn't change significantly.

The hot water was better for removing the oil.

Vishwanath had some money. he spent 3 upon 4 part of money to buy goods for his birthday,1 upon 5 part of money give to his sist
lord [1]

Answer:

The correct answer is - 800.

Explanation:

Given:

Total amount = ? or assume x

spend in buying birthday item = 3/4 of x

given to sister = 1/5 of x

remaining to mother = 40

solution:

the remaning amount = x- (3x/4+x/5) = 4=

=> x- 19x/20 = 40

=> x = 20*40

=> x = 800

thus, the correct answer is = 800

What happens to the mass of substances during a physical change?
Anna [14]

Here are the answers in order:

1. During a physical change the substance changes physically.

2. The law of conservation of mass is a law stating the conservation of mass cannot be higher than 46mg or lower than 32mg.

3. A hypothesis is a guess that you make before completing a science experiment, it can be considered a law because it is important to know why you are making the guess.

4. During a chemical change the mass is changing colors. This is a representation of a chemical change.

5. Oil is a non-renewable resource, so it cannot demonstrate the conservation of mass.

6. When the color of the substance has changed or when it explodes.

7. Reactants are the objects that react when in a chemical change.

8. If you follow the rule of not going higher than 46mg and not lower than 32mg then it will automatically follow this law.

Chemical Reactions Part One Video:

1. mass

2. erupt-ant

3. reactant

4. object

5. mixtures

6. molecules

7. color changed

Questions again:

1. A chemical reaction

2. A physical change

3. Because if it is no higher than 46mg and no lower than 32mg then it will follow on it's own.
