Answer:

1.25 M HCO₃⁻ / 1.25 M CO₃²⁻

Explanation:

Buffer capacity refers to the amount of a strong acid or base required per liter of the buffer to change its pH by one. This amount is directly related to the concentration of the conjugate acid-base pair in the buffer since the buffer pair neutralizes the strong acid or base.

Thus, the highest buffer capacity is found in the solution that has the highest concentration of the conjugate acid-base pair, which is 1.25 M HCO₃⁻ / 1.25 M CO₃²⁻ .

2. Which of the following expressions is generally used for solubility? (1 point)

miskamm [114]

Answer:

For 2: The correct answer is grams of solute per 100 grams of solvent.

For 3: The correct answer is supersaturated.

For 4: the correct answer is the solubility decreases.

Explanation:

For 2:

Solubility is defined as the property which refers to the ability of the solute that can be dissolved in a solvent. It is defined as the number of grams of solute per 100 grams of solvent.

For 3:

Unsaturated solution is defined as the solution in which amount of solute that is dissolved in the solvent is less.

Saturated solution is defined as the solution in which no more solute can be dissolved in the given amount of solvent.

Emulsion is defined as the dispersion of one liquid in another liquid in which it is not soluble.

Supersaturated solution is defined as the solution in which solvent contains more amount of solute than the required amount. These solutions help in the process of crystallization.

When a crystal is added to a supersaturated solution, more and more particles come out of the solution and this process is known as crystallization.

For 4:

According to the Henry's Law

The solubility of the gas in a liquid is directly proportional to the partial pressure of the gas.

$\text{Solubility of a gas in a liquid}\propto \text{Partial pressure of the gas}$

With increase in the partial pressure, the solubility of the gas in liquid also increases and vice-versa.

Hence, the correct answer is the solubility decreases.

The balanced equation for photosynthesis is shown below.

klio [65]

The true answer is: It's conserved because the total number of H atoms on each side is 12.
the first two answer is wrong because it's conserved not as mentioned, It's not conserved.

and the last one also wrong because the total number of O atoms are equal at the two sides but not equal 2.
