A buffer is a solution that can resist pH change upon the addition of an acidic or basic components. It is able to neutralize small amounts of added acid or base, thus maintaining the pH of the solution relatively stable. This is important for processes and/or reactions which require specific and stable pH ranges. Buffer solutions have a working pH range and capacity which dictate how much acid/base can be neutralized before pH changes, and the amount by which it will change.
Answer:
A) SiO2 is the limiting reactant
B) Theoretical yield= 72333.3g
C) % yield =91.5%
Explanation:
SiO2(s) + 2C(s) --------------> Si(s) + 2CO(g)
n(SiO2)= 155000/60 = 2583.33 mols
n(C)= 79000/12= 3291.66 mols
a)SiO2 is the limiting reactant
According to the balanced reaction equation,
60g of SiO2 produced 28g of SiO2
155000g of SiO2 will produce 155000×28/60= 72333.3g
Therefore theoretical yield of Si= 72333.3g
% yield= 66200/72333.3×100/1 =91.5%
Answer:
An intensive property is a property of matter that does not change as the amount of matter changes. It is a bulk property, which means it is a physical property that is not dependent on the size or mass of a sample.
In contrast, an extensive property is one that does depend on sample size. Examples of extensive properties include mass and volume.
Answer:
Assign oxidation numbers to all atoms in the equation.
Compare oxidation numbers from the reactant side to the product side of the equation.
The element oxidized is the one whose oxidation number increased.
