This balanced equation shows us the ratios of reactants and products, so for every 3 oxygen molecules, we see that 4 iron atoms react as well. The answer is 4.
Answer:
(C) HClO, pKa = 7.54
Explanation:
A buffer is a solution that can resist abrupt changes in pH when acids or bases are added. It is formed by two components:
- A weak acid and its conjugate base.
- A weak base and its conjugate acid.
In this case, acid and base are defined according to Bronsted-Löwry theory, which states that acids are substances that <em>release H⁺</em> and bases are substances that <em>accept H⁺. </em>Therefore, when an acid loses an H⁺ transforms into its conjugated base. For example, HF/F⁻ is a conjugate acid-base pair.
In buffers, when an acid is added, it reacts with the base to diminish its amount:
F⁻ + H⁺ ⇄ HF
Also in buffers, when a base is added, it reacts with the acid to diminish its amount:
HF + OH⁻ = F⁻ + H₂O
The optimum pH range of work of a buffer system (known as buffer range) is between 1 unit less and 1 unit more of pH than its pKa.
So, the buffer formed by HClO/ClO⁻ works optimally in the pH range 6.54-8.54. Since pH = 8.10 is in that interval, this would be the optimal choice.
Answer: formic acid
Explanation:
HCOOH is the structural formula for the compound commonly known as formic acid.
According to the international union of pure applied chemist (IUPAC), it is named methanoic acid, and represent the first member of the alkanoic acids.
Thus, examples of alkanoic acids are
- formic acid (HCOOH)
- Acetic acid (CH3COOH)
- Propanoic acid (CH3CH2COOH) etc
Answer:
Alpha Particle, Beta Particles and Gamma Rays
Explanation:
Ionic bonding is the complete transfer of valence electron(s) between atoms. It is a type of chemical bond that generates two oppositely charged ions. In ionic bonds, the metal loses electrons to become a positively charged cation, whereas the nonmetal accepts those electrons to become a negatively charged anion.
