In buffer solution there is an equilibrium between the acid HA and its conjugate base A⁻: HA(aq) ⇌ H⁺(aq) + A⁻(aq).
When acid (H⁺ ions) is added to the buffer solution, the equilibrium is shifted to the left, because conjugate base (A⁻) reacts with hydrogen cations from added acid, according to Le Chatelier's principle: H⁺(aq) + A⁻(aq) ⇄ HA(aq). So, the conjugate base (A⁻) consumes some hydrogen cations and pH is not decreasing (less H⁺ ions, higher pH of solution).
A buffer can be defined as a substance that prevents the pH of a solution from changing by either releasing or absorbing H⁺ in a solution.
Buffer is a solution that can resist pH change upon the addition of an acidic or basic components and it is able to neutralize small amounts of added acid or base, pH of the solution is relatively stable

Given
Reaction
3CuO+2NH₃⇒ 3Cu + 3H₂O+ N₂
<em>In the problem, the CuO coefficient should be 3 not 2</em>
M CuO = 80
mass CuO = 120 g
Required
The volume of NH₃
Solution
mol CuO :
From the equation, mol ratio CuO : NH₃ = 3 : 2, so mol NH₃=
Assume at STP(0 °C, 1 atm) ⇒1 mol = 22.4 L, then volume of NH₃=22.4 L
Answer:
7.5 L
Explanation:
At constant temperature and number of moles, Using Boyle's law
Given ,
V₁ = 3.00 L
V₂ = ?
P₁ = 36.74 psi = 2.5 atm (Conversion factor, 1 psi = 0.068046 atm)
P₂ = 1 atm (Atmospheric pressure as it comes to surface)
Using above equation as:
Answer:
Nothing is happening.
Explanation:
As written, nothing is going on. H2+O2+H2O represents a mixture of H2, O2, and H2O. We aren't even given the states, so they may all be gases, liquids/solids, or dissolved gases in a liquid (water).
If we had H2+O2 → H2O, we could say that hydrogen and oxygen are combining to form H2O, water. We should note, however, that the chemical equation is not balanced. There are two oxygen atoms on the reactant side, but only one on the product side. A balanced equation would read:
2H2 + O2 → 2H2O
It would be nice to indicate the physical states, such as:
2H2(g) + O2(g) → 2H2O(l)
Two gases, oxygen and hydrogen, combine to form liquid water.
Also missing from this equation is the energy that may be consumed, or released in this reaction. It would be nice to know, for example, that this reaction releases a lot of energy. Otherwise, we might wind up in the local headlines.
Two or more elements combined into one substance through a chemical reaction, such as water, form a chemical compound.
