The answer is
<span>2PbS(s) + 3O2(g) = 2PbO(s) + 2SO2(g)
Your answer is not yet balanced because you have 3 oxygen atoms. it should be balanced by multiplying both side by 2 such as the balanced equation I made. To check it, I will explain why your answer is not yet balanced.
check: (from your equation)
</span> 1-Pb-1
1-S-1
2 -O-3
the difference between the reactant and the product of Oxygen will prove that it is not yet balanced.
If you use 2PbS(s) + 3O2(g) = 2PbO(s) + 2SO2(g), to check it:
2-Pb-2
2-S-2
6 -O-6
then this is now balance
process by which one separates compounds from one another by passing a mixture through column that retains some compounds longer than others.
Answer:
It will decrease by 2 units.
Explanation:
The Henderson-Hasselbalch equation for a buffer is
pH = pKa + log(base/acid)
Let's assume your acid has pKa = 5.
(a) If the base: acid ratio is 1:1,
pH(1) = 5 + log(1/1) = 5 + log(1) = 5 + 0 = 5
(b) If the base: acid ratio is 1:100,
pH(2) = 5 + log(1/100) = 5 + log(0.01) = 5 - 2 = 3
(c) Difference
ΔpH = pH(2) - pH(1) = 5 - 3 = -2
If you increase the acid:base ratio to 100:1, the pH will decrease by two units.
