it can with stand certain pressure inside, once it exceeds the pressure will be released by making a whistle....... hence it wont burst
PH of acidic buffer = pKa + log [CH₃COONa - HCl] / [CH₃COOH + HCl]
pKa of CH₃COOH = 4.74
Concentration of acetic acid in buffer = 2.0 M
Concentration of sodium acetate = 1.0 M
Concentration of HCl must add = x
pH = 4.74 + log (1-x) / (2+x) = 4.11
x = concentration of HCl must be added = 0.43 M
number of moles of HCl = M * V = 0.43 * 1 = 0.43 mol
mass of HCl must be added = 0.43 * 36.5 = 15.7 g
Ionic compounds are formed by the bonding of non-metals to metals. Because inonic bonds involve electon transfer, the result is a mixture of ions; positive and negative, following the laws of electrostatics, like charges attract. These ions then form a giant structure (lattice) of ionic bonds and it is because of this that ionic compounds are solids (unless dissolved in water) and have extremely high melting and boling temparatures. In additions, beucase of the fixed placement of ions (charged particles) in a lattice, in the solid state ionic compounds don't conduct electricity very well but if dissolved in water (aqueous solution) the ions are free to move and carry a current.
