Answer:

Molarity of the solution? 0,262 M.

Concentration of the potassium cation? 0,786 M.

Concentration of the phosphate anion? 0,262 M.

Explanation:

Potassium phosphate (K₃PO₄; 212,27 g/mol) dissolves in water thus:

K₃PO₄ → 3 K⁺ + PO₄³⁻ <em>(1)</em>

Molarity is an unit of chemical concentration given in moles of solute (K₃PO₄) per liters of solution.

There are 250 mL of solution≡0,25 L

The moles of K₃PO₄ are:

13,9 g of K₃PO₄ ×\frac{1mol}{212,27 g} = 0,0655 moles of K₃PO₄

The molarity of the solution is:

\frac{0,0655 moles}{0,25L} = 0,262 M

In (1) you can see that 1 mole of K₃PO₄ produces 3 moles of potassium cation. The moles of potassium cation are:

0,0655 moles×3 = 0,1965 moles

The concentration is:

\frac{0,1965 moles}{0,25L} = 0,786 M

The moles of K₃PO₄ are the same than moles of PO₄³⁻, thus, concentration of phosphate anion is the same than concentration of K₃PO₄. 0,262 M

I hope it helps!

What type of organic compound has the empirical formula CH2O and can serve as energy storage or the starting material for fats a
Luda [366]
Carbohydrates. CH2O is the most basic formula of simple sugars.Empirical formula is the lowest whole number ratio of atoms in a formula.For example glucose is C6H12O6 can be reduced by 6 to get CH2O. Simples sugars include glucose and fructose which can serve as sources of energy for fats and amino acids.

What is the limiting reactant for the following balanced equation when 9 moles of AlF3 are mixed with 12 miles of O2?
tamaranim1 [39]
<h2>Answer:AlF_{3} </h2>

Explanation:

The chemical equation of the reaction that occurs when AlF_{3} reacts with O_{2} is

4AlF_{3}+3O_{2}→2Al_{2}O_{3}+6F_{2}

4 moles of AlF_{3} requires 3 moles of O_{2}.

1 mole of AlF_{3} requires \frac{3}{4} moles of O_{2}.

Given that we have 9 moles of AlF_{3}.

9 moles of AlF_{3} requires \frac{3}{4}\times 9=6.75 moles of O_{2}.

But we have 12 moles of O_{2}.

So,AlF_{3}  will be consumed first.

So,AlF_{3}  is the limiting reagent.

Buffering capacity refers to: the effectiveness of commercial antacids the extent to which a buffer solution can counteract the
kirill [66]

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Buffere is defined as the solution to whom when an acid or base is added then it resists any in change in pH of the solution.

This is because a buffer has the ability to not get affected by the addition of small amounts of an acid or a base. So, basically it keeps the concentration of both hydrogen ions and hydroxides equal. As a result, it helps in maintaining the pH of the solution.

And, the capacity of a buffer solution to resist the change is known as buffer capacity.

Thus, we can conclude that buffering capacity refers to the extent to which a buffer solution can counteract the effect of added acid or base.
