<span>I think the correct answer is A. A buffer is a substance that resists small change in the acidity of a solution when an acid or base is added to the solution. Usually, a buffer involves a weak acid or a weak alkali and one of its salt.</span>

How many moles are in 9.8 grams of calcium?
kondor19780726 [428]
<span>when the number of moles Ca = mass of Ca / molar mass of Ca.

and we can get the molar mass of Ca, it is = 40 g/mol

and we have already the mass of Ca (given) = 9.8 g

so, by substitution: the moles Ca = 9.8 g / 40 g/mol

                                                       = 0.245 moles</span>

Write a balanced net ionic equation to show why the solubility of Cu(OH)2(s) increases in the presence of a strong acid and calc
Helga [31]

Answer:

2.2×10^8

Explanation:

Cu(OH)2(s)<---------> Cu^2+(aq) + 2OH^-(aq) Ksp=2.2 x 10 ^-20

2H3O^+(aq) + 2OH^-(aq) <-------> 4H2O(l). Kw= 1×10^14

Cu^2+(aq) + 4H2O(l) <--------> [Cu(H2O)4]^2+(aq)

Overall ionic reaction:

Cu(OH)2(s) +2H3O^+(aq) <---------> [Cu(H20)4]^2+(aq)

Equilibrium constant for the reaction: Ksp×Kw= 2.2 x 10 ^-20 × (1/(1×10^-14))^2

Keq= 2.2×10^8

Kw= ion dissociation constant of water

Which of the following is an example of a chemical change?
elena-s [515]
The best answer is the first option. A bike rusting is an example of a chemical change since rusting is a chemical reaction. New substances are formed from this reaction. On the other hand, other choices given are just physical changes because only the shape or the physical form of the substances are being changed.
