devlian [24]3 years ago

The main purpose of a buffer solution is just to resist the change in pH so that the pH of the solution won't be much affected when we add an acid or base into it. The added acid or base is neutralized.

Answer: A buffer solution is a solution made to prevent the pH level of something from changing when you add a base or an acid to it. For example, if you put a buffer solution in a pool, and then you put chlorine in it, the chlorine's effect on the PH level will be suppressed.

Westkost [7]

Answer:

2.28 m

Explanation:

Use the relationship  

λ=vf

 

to solve for wavelength λ. Substituting the known quantities yields:

λ=vf

 

λ=2.99 x 108 m/s1.31 x 108 Hz

 

λ=2.28 m

At construction sites, workers often reduce erosion by ____.
Naddik [55]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

<em>All the above</em>

Workers at construction sites often reduce erosion by;

  • <em>Moving excess sediment back to its original location </em>
  • <em>Planting trees </em>
  • <em>Spraying water on bare soil</em>
<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • Soil erosion is a naturally occurring process which involves the wearing away of the topsoil by natural forces such as wind, water or other forces associated with farming.
  • <em><u>Construction of roads and buildings results to large amounts of soil erosion around the world. It is therefore important to put measures that would help reduce soil erosion at construction sites</u></em>. These measures uses principals of soil control such as implementing sediment control, limiting soil exposure, reducing the runoff velocity, and modifying topography among others.

What is the volume occupied by 4.20 miles of oxygen gas (O2) at STP
Drupady [299]

Answer: 94.13 L

Explanation: In STP in an ideal gas there is a standard value for both temperature and pressure. At STP,pressure is equal to 1atm and the temperature at 0°C is equal to 273.15K. This problem is an ideal gas so we use PV=nRT where R is a constant R= 0.08205 L.atm/mol.K.

To find volume, derive the equation, it becomes V=nRT/P. Substitute the values. V= 4.20 mol( 0.08205L.atm/mol.K)(273.15K) / 1 atm = 94.13 L. The mole units, atm and K will be cancelled out and L will be the remaining unit which is for volume.
