Oil makes it impossible for fur-bearing mammals to insulate<span>, this leaves them unprotected from the harsh elements out in the water. Birds and mammals will die from hypothermia without the ability to insulate from the freezing water.
I hope this helps you! :-)</span>
Answer:
Explanation has been given below.
Explanation:
- A buffer consists of either of a weak acid along with it's conjugate base or a weak base along with it's conjugate acid.
- Let's consider a buffer consists of a weak acid along with it's conjugate base
- If we add an acid to this buffer then conjugate base gets protonated and converted to corresponding weak acid. So effect of addition of acid gets neutralized by forming weak acid rather than increase in concentration of proton in solution.
- If we add a base to this buffer then weak acid gets converted to corresponding conjugate base. So effect of addition of base gets neutralized by forming conjugate base rather than in crease in concentration of hydroxyl ion in solution.
Answer:
This question is incomplete
Explanation:
This question is incomplete. However, the beaker that contained some water before NaOH were added means that the resulting solution in that beaker will be more dilute. When this diluted sodium hydroxide solution is added to HCl (not hci), the reaction below occurs
HCl + NaOH ⇒ NaCl + H₂O
The reaction above is a neutralization reaction. <u>The concentration of the acid (HCl) will reduce when a base (sodium hydroxide) is added and will also reduce more because of the presence of more water (in the base) which normally reduces the concentration of ions present in an acid or a base to become more dilute.</u>
