Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
Buffere is defined as the solution to whom when an acid or base is added then it resists any in change in pH of the solution.
This is because a buffer has the ability to not get affected by the addition of small amounts of an acid or a base. So, basically it keeps the concentration of both hydrogen ions and hydroxides equal. As a result, it helps in maintaining the pH of the solution.
And, the capacity of a buffer solution to resist the change is known as buffer capacity.
Thus, we can conclude that buffering capacity refers to the extent to which a buffer solution can counteract the effect of added acid or base.
Answer:
Explanation:
Boyle's law for gases states that, at constant temperature, the volume and pressure of a fixed amount of gas are inversely related.
Mathematically, that is:
Here, you have:
Then, you can solve for V₂:
Substitute and compute:
- V₂ = 14.1 KPa × 2.4L / 84.6 KPa = 0.40 L ← answer
Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
The reactions are:
Glycolysis: 1 glucose ⟶ 2 pyruvate
Link reaction: 2 × [1 pyruvate ⟶ 1 acetyl CoA]
Citric acid cycle: 2 × [1 AcetylCoA ⟶ 2 CO₂]
Now, add the reactions, cancelling species that occur on both sides of the reaction arrow,
1 glucose ⟶ <u>2 pyruvate
</u>
<u>2 pyruvate</u> ⟶ <u>2 acetyl CoA
</u>
<u>2 AcetylCoA </u>⟶ 4 CO₂
<em>Overall</em> : 1 glucose ⟶ 4 CO₂
For each mole of glucose, four molecules of CO₂ are released in the citric acid cycle.
