Answer:
i) Buffer absorbs H^+ and OH^- ions preventing large changes in pH when small amounts of acid or base is added but when large amounts of acid or base is added there will be a change in pH
ii) absorption of liquid is related to a chemical reaction for a buffer system but it is not related a chemical reaction for a proton( H ) sponge.
Explanation:
<u>i) Buffer like a proton ( H ) sponge </u>
Buffer absorbs H^+ and OH^- ions preventing large changes in pH when small amounts of acid or base is added but when large amounts of acid or base is added there will be a change in pH
The pH of a Buffer follows the Henderson-Hasselbach model
pH = pKa + Log ([A-]/[HA])
when base is added
HA + OH^- -------> A- + H2O
when acid is added
A^- + H^+ ---------> HA
<u>ii) Buffer not like a proton ( H ) sponge</u>
absorption of liquid is related to a chemical reaction for a buffer system but it is not related a chemical reaction for a proton( H ) sponge.
<h2>
Answer:It always contains certain elements,It always contains elements in definite proportions.,It cannot contain atoms from more than one element.</h2>
Explanation:
The mineral need not occur always in a pure form.On purification we get the exact chemical composition.
The mineral always has a definite chemical composition which means the number of elements and types of elements in the mineral does not change.
Since the mineral has definite composition,the elements in the mineral has definite proportions.
The mineral can be a compound.So,there can be atoms from more than one element.
Answer:
Q = 2.60 • J
Explanation:
Our specific heat capacity equation is:
Q = mC∆T
Q is the energy in joules.
m is the mass of the substance.
∆T is the temperature chance.
Let's plug in what we know.
- We have 76.0 g of octane
- The specific heat capacity of octane is 2.22 J/(g•K)
- The temperature increases from 10.6º to 26.0º (a 15.4º increase)
Q = 76.0(2.22)(15.4)
Multiply.
Q = 2598.288
We want three significant figures.
Q = 2.60 •
or
Q = 2590 J
Hope this helps!
