Answer:
pH of the buffer is 7.33
Explanation:
The mixture of the ions H₂PO₄⁻ and HPO₄²⁻ produce a buffer (The mixture of a weak acid, H₂PO₄⁻, with its conjugate base, HPO₄²⁻).
To find pH of a buffer we use H-H equation:
pH = pka + log [A⁻] / [HA]
<em>Where A⁻ is conjugate base and HA weak acid.</em>
<em />
For the H₂PO₄⁻ and HPO₄²⁻ buffer:
pH = pka + log [HPO₄²⁻] / [H₂PO₄⁻]
Computing values of the problem:
pH =7.21 + log [0.125M] / [0.095M]
pH = 7.33
<h3>pH of the buffer is 7.33</h3>

Density is equal to mass divided by volume.
So D=118/12
D=9.83
It would protect best against C) Alpha radiation, as Beta radiation is stopped by lighter metals such as aluminium, and Gamma radiation can only be stopped by heavier metals such as lead.
Answer:
27.6mL of LiOH 0.250M
Explanation:
The reaction of lithium hydroxide (LiOH) with chlorous acid (HClO₂) is:
LiOH + HClO₂ → LiClO₂ + H₂O
<em>That means, 1 mole of hydroxide reacts per mole of acid</em>
Moles of 20.0 mL = 0.0200L of 0.345M chlorous acid are:
0.0200L ₓ (0.345mol / L) = <em>6.90x10⁻³ moles of HClO₂</em>
To neutralize this acid, you need to add the same number of moles of LiOH, that is 6.90x10⁻³ moles. As the LiOH contains 0.250 moles / L:
6.90x10⁻³ moles ₓ (1L / 0.250mol) = 0.0276L of LiOH =
<h3>27.6mL of LiOH 0.250M</h3>
