Answer:

case1.

The addition of acid and base leads to a change in pH of the water when adding to deionized water due to fact that acid and bases dissociated in dissolving in water. If the H+ ion increases in the water as acid addition hikes it, it will result in decreasing the pH value. The intensity of the acid also affects the dissociation of the ions.

case2

Buffers are normally formed by weak acid and its conjugate base, and adding acid to the buffer it absorbs the H+ ions so the pH will be lower and adding base or increase of OH- conjugate base resists the pH value to increase.

Which statement accurately describes the reactants of a reaction?

krek1111 [17]

Answer:

C. substances that are used up in a reaction

Explanation:

Substances are combined in a chemical reaction to give rise to other substances. The substances that come together are called REACTANTS while the substances that are produced are called PRODUCTS.

Reactants are used up in the reaction to give rise to new products at the end of the reaction. For example, in the reaction as follows:

6CO2 + 6H2O --> C6H12O6 + 6O2

CO2 (carbon dioxide) and water (H2O) are the REACTANTS of the reaction, which are used up to form glucose and oxygen (products)
