Which of the following aqueous solutions are good buffer systems? . 0.32 M calcium chloride + 0.27 M sodium chloride 0.35 M ammo
irga5000 [103]

Answer:

0.12 M hydrofluoric acid + 0.17 M potassium fluoride

Explanation:

To make a buffer, you must to have an aqueous mixture of a weak acid and its conjugate base or vice versa.

Knowing that:

0.32 M calcium chloride + 0.27 M sodium chloride: <em>is not a good buffer system </em>because CaCl₂ and NaCl are both salts.

0.35 M ammonia + 0.36 M calcium hydroxide <em>is not a good buffer system </em>because ammonia is a weak base but calcium hydroxide is a strong base

0.19 M barium hydroxide + 0.28 M barium chloride <em>is not a good buffer system </em>because Ba(OH)₂ is a strong base.

0.12 M hydrofluoric acid + 0.17 M potassium fluoride <em>is a good buffer system </em>because HF is a weak acid and KF (F⁻ in aqueous medium), is its conjugate base

0.20 M hydrobromic acid + 0.22 M sodium bromide <em>is not a good buffer system </em>because HBr is a strong acid.

Magnetite is a binary compound containing only iron and oxygen. the percent, by weight, of iron is 72.360%. what is the empirica
hram777 [196]
Answer is: <span>c. Fe</span>₃<span>O</span>₄<span>.
</span>ω(Fe) = 72,360%.
ω(O) = 100% - 72,36% = 27,64%.
For example, if we the mass of compound is 100 g:
m(Fe) = 72,36 g.
n(Fe) = m(Fe) ÷ M(Fe).
n(Fe) = 72,36 g ÷ 55,85 g/mol.
n(Fe) = 1,296 mol.
n(O) = 27,64 g ÷ 16 g/mol.
n(O) = 1,727 mol.
n(Fe) : n(O) = 1,296 mol : 1,727 mol.
n(Fe) : n(O) = 1 : 1,33 or 3 : 4.

How do atoms form new substances?
geniusboy [140]
Atoms combine as the electrons from each atom are attracted to the nuclei of the atoms. This results in bonds ranging from 100% covalent to bonds with high ionic character. The combination of atoms to form compounds occurs when the compounds being formed are at lower energy than the original atoms
