Answer: True
Explanation: I got done taking a science quiz and it had this question on it
The pH of the solution is obtained to be 9.67.
<h3>What is a buffer?</h3>
A buffer is a solution that serves to militate against changes in acidity or alkalinity. The buffer is often made of a solution of a strong acid and its salt or a weak base and its salt.
Now we have the that;
Number of moles of base = 250 /1000 * 0.80 = 0.2 moles
Number of moles of salt = 150/1000 * 0.50 = 0.075 moles
Total volume of the solution = 250 + 150 = 400 mL or 0.4 L
Molarity of the base = 0.2 moles/0.4 L = 0.5 M
Molarity of the salt = 0.075 moles/ 0.4 L = 0.1875 M
pKb = - log( 1.8 x 10^-5) = 4.74
pOH = pKb + log [salt/base]
pOH = 4.74 + log (0.1875/ 0.5)
pOH = 4.33
pH = 14 - 4.33
pH = 9.67
The pH of the solution is obtained to be 9.67.

Answer:
3.75 g/mL
Explanation:
Density can be calculated using the following formula:
Density = mass (g) / volume (mL)
You have been given the mass of the mineral sample (75 g). To find the volume, you need to determine the amount of space that the sample takes up when it is placed in the water. This can be done by subtracting the initial water volume from the final water volume.
Volume = Final - Initial
Volume = 40 mL - 20 mL
Volume = 20 mL
Now, you can calculate the density of the mineral sample.
Density = mass / volume
Density = 75 g / 20 mL
Density = 3.75 g/mL
