The HCl added = 1.25 moles

and the moles of Na2HPO4 = 1 mole

Now when acid is added in the given solution of Na2HPO4

One mole of H+ will react with one mole of Na2HPO4 to given one mole of NaH2PO4

Na2HPO4  + H+  ---> NaH2PO4

Now this one mole formed NaH2PO4 will further react with 0.25 moles of H+ left to form 0.25 moles of  H3PO4 and 0.75 moles of NaH2PO4 will remain in the solution

So this will result into formation of a buffer of phosphoric acid and NaH2PO4

NaH2PO4  + H+  ---> H3PO4

pKa of H3PO4 = 2.1

so pH = pKa + log [salt] / [acid] = 2.1 + log [0.75 / 0.25] = 2.58

so the pH will be in between 2.1 to 7.2

Un buzo que nada en las profundidades despide pequeñas burbujas de aire¿Aumenta disminuye o permanece igual el tamaño de las bur
alekssr [168]

Answer:

Al ascender las burbujas van aumentando de tamaño.

Explanation:

Las burbujas que produce el buzo debajo del agua son pequeñas moléculas de dióxido de carbono gaseoso producto de la respiración del mismo.

Ahora, a medida que las burbujas suben a la superficie, la presión que sufren estas (Presión debido al agua), es menor conforme van ascendiendo debido a la ley de Boyle: A medida que la presión aumenta, el volumen va disminuyendo.

Esto significa que al ascender las burbujas van aumentando de tamaño debido a que la presión que sufren estas es menor que cuando están a mayores profundidades.

Complete and balance the following acid-base equations:
Alchen [17]

Answer:

a) HClO_4 (aq) + LiOH \rightarrow LiClO_4 + H_2O

b) H_2SO_4(aq) + 2NaOH(aq) \rightarrow Na_2SO_4 (aq) + 2H_2O (l)

c) Ba(OH)2 + 2HF\rightarrow BaF_2 + 2H_2O

Explanation:

a)

when HClO_4 is added to LiOH, lithium chlorate and water is formed.

HClO_4 (aq) + LiOH \rightarrow LiClO_4 + H_2O

Balancing of above reaction,

It can be seen that all the atoms in both the sides are balanced. so it is a balanced reaction.

(b) When aqueous H_2SO_4 is added to NaOH, Na_2SO_4 and H_2O is formed. It is a neutrilization reaction.

H_2SO_4(aq) + NaOH(aq) \rightarrow Na_2SO_4 (aq) + H_2O (l)

Balancing of above reaction,

First balance all the atoms except O and H

S atom is already balanced in either side

No. of Na atom in left hand side = 1

No. of Na atom in right hand side = 2

So multiply NaOH by 2, now the reaction becomes:

H_2SO_4(aq) + 2NaOH(aq) \rightarrow Na_2SO_4 (aq) + H_2O (l)

No. of O atoms in left hand side = 6

No. of O atoms in right hand side = 5

So multiply H2O by 2, now the reaction becomes:

H_2SO_4(aq) + 2NaOH(aq) \rightarrow Na_2SO_4 (aq) + 2H_2O (l)

Now, it can been seen that all the atoms are balanced.

c) When Ba(OH)2 reacts with HF, baroum fluoride and water is formed.

Ba(OH)2 + HF\rightarrow BaF_2 + H_2O

Balancing of above reaction,

Barium atoms are already balanced on either side.

No. of F atoms on left hand side = 1

No. of F atoms on right hand side = 2

So, multiply HF by 2, now reaction becomes

Ba(OH)2 + 2HF\rightarrow BaF_2 + H_2O

In order to balance H and O on either side, multiply H2O by 2.

Ba(OH)2 + 2HF\rightarrow BaF_2 + 2H_2O

Why are prefixes not needed in naming ionic compounds?
kari74 [83]

Answer:

when naming ionic compounds — those are only used in naming covalent molecular compounds. Do NOT use prefixes to indicate how many of each element is present; this information is implied in the name of the compound. since iron can form more than one charge. Ionic Compounds Containing a Metal and a Polyatomic Ion.

Identify the ways that art and science are similar
Katarina [22]

Answer:

Arts and science are similar in that they are expressions of what it is to be human in this world.

Explanation:

Both are driven by curiosity, discovery, the aspiration for knowledge of the world or oneself, and perhaps, as the conceptual artist Goshka Macuga said on her recent visit to Cern, a desire for world domination.
