Answer:
A solution that is 0.10 M HCN and 0.10 M LiCN
Explanation:
- A good buffer system contains a weak acid and its salt or a weak base and its salt.
- In this case; A solution that is 0.10 M HCN and 0.10 M LiCN, would make a good buffer system.
- HCN is a weak acid, while LiCN is a salt of the weak acid, that is, CN- conjugate of the acid.
Answer:
Curvature
Explanation:
In mathematics, curvature is any of several strongly related concepts in geometry. Intuitively, the curvature is the amount by which a curve deviates from being a straight line, or a surface deviates from being a plane. For curves, the canonical example is that of a circle, which has a curvature ... For being meaningful, the definition of the curvature and its different
Answer:
a. Plum pudding model
Explanation:
The plum pudding model of the atom was proposed by J.J. Thomson. It was the model he derived from his experiment on the gas discharge tube.
J.J Thomson was the first person to discover electrons which he called cathode rays because in the discharge tube, they emanate from the cathode.
- This led him to suggest the plum pudding model of the atom.
- The model reflects electrons being surrounded by a volume of negative charges.
Answer:
a. 9.2
b. 4.4
c. 6.3
Explanation:
In order to calculate the pH of each solution, we will use the definition of pH.
pH = -log [H⁺]
(a) [H⁺] = 5.4 × 10⁻¹⁰ M
pH = -log [H⁺] = -log 5.4 × 10⁻¹⁰ = 9.2
Since pH > 7, the solution is basic.
(b) [H⁺] = 4.3 × 10⁻⁵ M
pH = -log [H⁺] = -log 4.3 × 10⁻⁵ = 4.4
Since pH < 7, the solution is acid.
(c) [H⁺] = 5.4 × 10⁻⁷ M
pH = -log [H⁺] = -log 5.4 × 10⁻⁷ = 6.3
Since pH < 7, the solution is acid.
Answer:
HCI(aq)+CH3COONa(s) ----> CH3COOH(aq)+NaCl(s)
NaOH(aq)+CH3COOH(aq) ----> CH3COONa(s)+H2O(l)
Explanation:
A buffer is a solution that resists changes in acidity or alkalinity. A buffer is able to neutralize a little amount of acid or base thereby maintaining the pH of the system at a steady value.
A buffer may be an aqueous solution of a weak acid and its conjugate base or a weak base and its conjugate acid.
The equations for the neutralizations that occurred upon addition of HCl or NaOH are;
HCI(aq)+CH3COONa(s) ----> CH3COOH(aq)+NaCl(s)
NaOH(aq)+CH3COOH(aq) ----> CH3COONa(s)+H2O(l)
