Given that,
The concentration of
TRIS = 0.30 M
The concentration of
TRIS+ = 0.60 M
Kb = 1.2 x 10^-6
pKb = -log Kb = - log
(1.2 x 10^-6) = 5.920
Now, by using the
Hendersonn equation,
pH = pKa + log
TRIS+/TRIS = 5.920 + log (0.60/0.30) = 6.221
<span>pOH=14-pH=14-6.221 =
7.779</span>
Answer:
When the results of a new experiment to test atomic theory do not agree with the theory, scientist will repeat the experiment to make sure that his results are reliable.
Explanation:
In the scientific context, each new experiment must be performed with precision and following the steps of the scientific method.
An experiment that does not provide reliable data to demonstrate a theory must be reviewed in detail and performed again to confirm the data obtained in the first attempt.
A theory is a postulate that tries to explain a natural phenomenon, but whose argument can be discussed or does not have the acceptance of a law. When the theory is proven and there are no arguments against it, it can be universally accepted and becomes a law.
The other options are not valid due to:
- <u><em>Scientists worldwide will reject atomic theory because of the new results</em></u><em>. A theory cannot be discarded without solid arguments or evidence in order to dismiss it and establish a new one.</em>
- <u><em>The scientist will change his results to agree with the accepted theory</em></u><em>. This would be an unethical procedure and unacceptable to the scientific community.</em>
- <em><u>Other scientists will reject the results because they do not agree with the theory</u></em><em>. The opinion of other scientists is not enough to dismiss a theory, if it has a valid scientific basis.</em>
