Answer:
The amount of base needed is the amount that would give one mole of the hydroxide ion needed to neutralise one mole of the hydroxonium ion from the acid.
Explanation:
The chemical reaction between an acid and a base to form salt and water only is called a Neutralization reaction. Chemically
H⁺ + OH⁻ = H₂0
Hence, one mole of hydroxonium ion (H⁺) will combine with one mole of hydroxide ion (OH⁻) to give salt and water only.
In a completely neutralized reaction, the resulting salt is formed when there is complete dissociation of the acid and base to give salt and water with a pH of 7.
In the given question, the stated pH of between 8-9 tells us that the salt produced in this particular neutralization reaction is basic or alkaline. This usually occurs when a strong base reacts with a weak acid, producing a higher concentration of the hydroxide ion at equilibrium.
Hence the amount of base needed is the amount that would give one mole of the hydroxide ion needed to neutralise one mole of the hydroxonium ion from the acid.
If the concentration or molarity of the acid is known, then the exact amount of base required to neutralize it can be calculated. This is usually done via titrating the acid against drop wise solution of the base. Neutralization usually occurs when there is a change in colour of the resulting solution. The pH of the resulting solution can be determined using a litmus paper.
A blue litmus paper is indicative of a basic solution while a red litmus paper is indicative of an acidic solution.
A. Fission creates new elements from which electricity can be generated.

The amount of liquid is measured in L. As the unit Lm is only used when measuring the mass liquid fraction.
The mass of iron (III) oxide (Fe2O3) : 85.12 g

Given
3.20x10²³ formula units
Required
The mass
Solution
1 mole = 6.02.10²³ particles
Can be formulated :
N = n x No
N = number of particles
n = mol
No = 6.02.10²³ = Avogadro's number
mol of Fe₂O₃ :

mass of Fe₂O₃ (MW=160 g/mol)

Answer:
e) pH is independent of concentration.
Explanation:
a) It is a mixture of a weak acid and its conjugate base. <em>TRUE. </em>A buffer is defined as a mixture of a weak acid and its conjugate base or a weak base and its conjugate acid.
b) Resists pH changes because it reacts with added acid or base. <em>TRUE. </em>Thermodynamically, the reaction of added acid or base is faster with the buffer mixture than with H⁺ or OH⁻ ions of the solutions.
c) The maximum buffer capacity is at pH = pKa. <em>TRUE. </em>The buffer capacity is pka±1. For this, buffer capacity is maximum in pka.
d) pH is dependent on the solution ionic strength and temperature. <em>TRUE.</em> Ionic strength and temperature are factors that influence concentrations of ions in solutions as the H⁺ ion that is the responsible
e) pH is independent of concentration. <em>FALSE. </em>pH in a buffer depends completely of concentrations of the acid and its conjugate base or vice versa.
