In buffer solution there is an equilibrium between the acid HA and its conjugate base A⁻: HA(aq) ⇌ H⁺(aq) + A⁻(aq).
When acid (H⁺ ions) is added to the buffer solution, the equilibrium is shifted to the left, because conjugate base (A⁻) reacts with hydrogen cations from added acid, according to Le Chatelier's principle: H⁺(aq) + A⁻(aq) ⇄ HA(aq). So, the conjugate base (A⁻) consumes some hydrogen cations and pH is not decreasing (less H⁺ ions, higher pH of solution).
A buffer can be defined as a substance that prevents the pH of a solution from changing by either releasing or absorbing H⁺ in a solution.
Buffer is a solution that can resist pH change upon the addition of an acidic or basic components and it is able to neutralize small amounts of added acid or base, pH of the solution is relatively stable
Answer:
c.
Explanation:
it moves in slow convection currents, hope this helps!
To be able to write correctly the equilibrium expression of a reaction, we need to know the balanced reaction and the phases of the substances in the reaction. When substances are solid, pure liquid they are not included in the expression. We do as follows:
<span>4KO2(s) + 2H2O(g) = 4KOH(s) + 3O2(g)
K = [O2]^3 / [H2O]^2</span>
Foods are a solid we need to survive
Answer:0.300M
Explanation:1) Data:
a) Initial solution
M = 1.50M
V = 50.0 ml = 0.050 l
b) Solvent added = 200 ml = 0.200 l
2) Formula:
Molarity: M = moles of solute / volume of solution is liters
3) Solution:
a) initial solution:
Clearing moles from the molarity formula: moles = M × V
moles of H₂SO₄ = M × V = 1.5M × 0.050 l = 0.075 mol
b) final solution:
i) Volumen of solution = 0.050 l + 0.200l = 0.250l
ii) M = 0.075 mol / 0.250 l = 0.300M ← answeer
