A solution is saturated when no more solute can be dissolved in it. The correct choice is 11 players with a maximum of 11 players because the field has as many players as can play but no additional players.

Answer is: C) 11 players on a field that has a maximum of 11 players.

Saturated solution contains the maximum concentration of a solute dissolved in the solvent (usually water) and if extra solute is add to saturated solution, that solute will not dissolve.

The amount of solute that can be dissolved in a solvent depends of chemical composition, temperature and pressure.

A solution is prepared by dissolving 0.26 mol of hydrazoic acid and 0.26 mol of sodium azide in water sufficient to yield 1.00 L

Pavel [41]

Answer:

The pH does not decrease drastically because the HCl reacts with the <u>sodium azide (NaN₃)</u> present in the buffer solution.

Explanation:

The buffer solution is formed by 0.26 moles of the weak acid, hydrazoic acid (HN₃), and by 0.26 moles of sodium azide (NaN₃). The equilibrium reaction of this buffer solution is the following:

HN₃(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄ N₃⁻(aq) + H₃O⁺(aq)

The pH of this solution is:

$pH = pka + log(\frac{[N_{3}^{-}]}{[HN_{3}]}) = -log(2.5 \cdot 10^{-5}) + log(\frac{0.26 mol/1 L}{0.26 mol/1 L}) = 4.60$

When 0.05 moles of HCl is added to the buffer solution, the following reaction takes place:

H₃O⁺(aq) + N₃⁻(aq) ⇄ HN₃(aq) + H₂O(l)

The number of moles of NaN₃ after the reaction with HCl is:

$\eta_{NaN_{3}} = \eta_{i} - \eta_{HCl} = 0.26 moles - 0.05 moles = 0.21 moles$

Now, the number of moles of HN₃ is:

$\eta_{HN_{3}} = \eta_{i} + \eta_{HCl} = 0.26 moles + 0.05 moles = 0.31 moles$

Then, the pH of the buffer solution after the addition of HCl is:

$pH = pka + log(\frac{[N_{3}^{-}]}{[HN_{3}]}) = -log(2.5 \cdot 10^{-5}) + log(\frac{0.21 mol/V_{T}}{0.31 mol/V_{T}}) = 4.43$

The pH of the buffer solution does not decrease drastically, it is 4.60 before the addition of HCl and 4.43 after the addition of HCl.

Therefore, the pH does not decrease drastically because the HCl reacts with the sodium azide (NaN₃) present in the buffer solution.

Which of the following popular sayings is an example of a true scientific theory?

Rom4ik [11]

The carrot myth was invented by the English Airforce to hide their radar system during WW(1 or 2, I'm not sure). Dropped food doesn't matter because dust and bacteria the food touches are on it the moment it hits the ground. Touching toads doesn't give warts, however the poison he secretes from its skin (a toad is poisonous, not venomous) can irritate. So it must the warm milk.
