Explanation:
The solution of the lactic acd and sodium lactate is referred to as a buffer solution.
A buffer solution is an aqueous solution consisting of a mixture of a weak acid and its conjugate base, or vice versa. In this case, the weak acid is the lactic acid and the conjugate base is the sodium lactate.
Buffer solutions are generally known to resist change in pH values.
When a strong base (in this case, NaOH) is added to the buffer, the lactic acid will give up its H+ in order to transform the base (OH-) into water (H2O) and the conjugate base, so we have:
HA + OH- → A- + H2O.
Since the added OH- is consumed by this reaction, the pH will change only slightly.
The NaOH reacts with the weak acid present in the buffer sollution.
Answer: Some natural disasters include: tornados, hailstorms, hurricanes, wild fires, flash floods, tsunamis, and earthquakes.
Answer:
8.33 hours
Explanation:
In order to solve this problem, we must apply Graham's law of diffusion in gases. Graham's law states that the rate of diffusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of its vapour density. For two gases we can write;
R1/R2=√d2/d1
Where;
R1= rate of diffusion of hydrogen
R2= rate diffusion of unknown gas
d1= vapour density of hydrogen
d2= vapour density of the unknown gas
Volume of hydrogen gas = 360cm^3
Time taken for hydrogen gas to diffuse= 1 hour =3600 secs
R1 = 360 cm^3/3600 secs = 0.1 cm^3 s-1
Vapour density of unknown gas = 25
Vapour density of hydrogen = 1
Substituting values,
0.1/R2 = √25/1
0.1/R2 = 5/1
5R2 = 0.1 × 1
R2 = 0.1/5
R2= 0.02 cm^3s-1
Volume of unknown gas = 600cm^3
Time taken for unknown gas to diffuse= volume of unknown gas/ rate of diffusion of unknown gas
Time taken for unknown gas to diffuse= 600/0.02
Time= 30,000 seconds or 8.33 hours
Answer:
876 grams
Explanation:
Convert specific gravity to density, using water density 1.0 g/ml
d = e.g x 1.0 g/ml = 1.168 g/ml
d = m/v (mass/volume)
m = dxv = 1.168 g/ml x 750 ml = 876 grams
Answer: environmental chemist
Explanation:
An environmnetal chemist is a professional who takes interest in the industrial activities and suggests preventive measures so as to produce least amount of wastes so that minimal or no loss of the environment outside the industry takes place. Such a professional will participate in all steps of chemical operations such as designing, construction and management.
