How does a buffer resist change in pH upon addition of a strong acid? The strong acid reacts with the strong base in the buffer

to form a salt, which produces few H+ ions in solution and therefore only a little change in pH. The strong acid reacts with the weak base in the buffer to form a weak acid, which produces few H+ ions in solution and therefore only a little change in pH. The strong acid reacts with the weak acid in the buffer to form a weak base, which produces few H+ ions in solution and therefore only a little change in pH.

Answer:

The strong acid reacts with the weak base in the buffer to form a weak acid, which produces few H+ ions in solution and therefore only a little change in pH.

Explanation:

When a strong acid is added to the buffer, the acid dissociates and furnish hydrogen ions which combine with the conjugate of the weak acid, forming weak acid. The weak acid dissociates to only some extent and can furnish only some protons and there is no significant change in the pH.

Hence, option B is correct.

When cream mixes with coffee, is this a chemical or physical change?
svlad2 [7]

It is a physical change when cream mixes with coffee, it changes the color of the coffee. When you add more or less cream there is a color change depending on the consistency of cream. The properties are not changes and a no new compound is formed as in chemical change with a reaction of two compounds, a new compound is formed with different properties. So it is a physical change.

Which of the following atoms has the greatest atomic radius? Oxygen (o) fluorine (F) Chlorine (CL) Carbon (C)
Andrei [34K]

Periodic Trend:

The Atomic radius of atoms generally decreases from left to right across a period

Group Trend:

The atomic radius of atoms generally increases from top to bottom within a group. As atomic number increases down a group, there is a increase in the positive nuclear charge, however the co-occurring increase in the number of orbitals wins out, increasing the atomic radius down a group in the periodic table

Answer :

The Atom with the greatest atomic radius is chlorine. Fluorine can be ruled out because it is in the same period as oxygen and further to the right down the period. Chlorine has the largest atomic size because it is farthest down the group of any of the above elements listed.

Determine Δngas for each of the following reactions:(b) 2H₂(g) + O₂(g) ⇄ 2H₂O(l)
elixir [45]

2H₂(g) + O₂(g) ⇄ 2H₂O(l)

Δngas = 0 - (2 +1)

           = -3

<h3>What is Δngas?</h3>

The number of moles of gas that move from the reactant side to the product side is denoted by the symbol ∆n or delta n in this equation.

Once more, n represents the growth in the number of gaseous molecules the equilibrium equation can represent. When there are exactly the same number of gaseous molecules in the system, n = 0, Kp = Kc, and both equilibrium constants are dimensionless.

<h3>Definition of equilibrium</h3>

When a chemical reaction does not completely transform all reactants into products, equilibrium occurs. Many chemical processes eventually reach a state of balance or dynamic equilibrium where both reactants and products are present.

Write the chemical equation for fot the reaction between mgcl2 and the soap you preapred
In-s [12.5K]
Soap is the sodium or potassium salt of long chain of fatty acid. Fatty acids when treated with NaOH or KOH forms Soap. This process is called as Saponification. Examples of Soap are as follow,

                                     1.  Sodium Stearate C₁₇H₃₅COONa
                                   
                                     2.  Potassium Oleate C₁₇H₃₃COOK

Reaction of Soap with MgCl₂;

When Soap is treated with MgCl₂ or CaCl₂ it forms insoluble precipitate called S.C.U.M. The reactions with MgCl₂ are as follow,

                2C₁₇H₃₅COONa + MgCl₂  -------->  2C₁₇H₃₅COOMg  + 2 NaCl

                2C₁₇H₃₃COOK   + MgCl₂  -------->  2C₁₇H₃₅COOMg  + 2 KCl

These reaction are often found in hard water. And this reaction decreases the effectiveness of soap.
