What substance would you add to nahco3(aq) to form a buffer solution?

Chemistry

Answer is: H₂CO₃.

This buffer is example of weak acid (H₂CO₃) and its conjugate base (HCO₃⁻).

Dissociation of carbonic acid: H₂CO₃(aq) ⇄ HCO₃⁻(aq) + H⁺(aq).

Adding acid: HCO₃⁻(aq) + H⁺(aq ⇄ H₂CO₃(aq).

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.

Buffer solution is made by mixing a weak acid with its conjugate base or weak base with its conjugate acid. NaHCO₃(aq) is a conjugate salt and also a conjugate base of H₂CO₃(aq) acid. Hence H₂CO₃(aq) should be added to make the buffer solution.

Determine the empirical formula of a compound containing 1.71 g of silicon and 8.63 g of chlorine.
Basile [38]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: SiCl₄

Explanation:

Data

amount of Si      1.71 g

amount of Cl     8.63 g

MW Si = 28 g

MW Cl = 35.5

Process (rule of three)

For Si                                                        For Cl

        28 g of Si ------------------ 1 mol                      35.5 g of Cl --------------- 1 mol

          1.71g of Si  ---------------   x                              8.63 g of Cl --------------  x

         x = 1.71 x 1 / 28 = 0.06 mol                          x = 8.63 x 1 / 35.5 = 0.24 mol

Now, divide both results by the lowest of them.

Si = 0.06 mol / 0.06 = 1 molecule of Si     Cl = 0.24 / 0.06 = 4 molecules of Cl

Finally

                     Si₁ Cl₄ or SiCl₄

How many grams of Al(OH)3 are produced from 3.00 g of AlCl3 with excess of NaOH?
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

1.772 gram is the approximate answer

Explanation:

molecular mass of AlCl3 is 132 g per mole and of Al(OH)3 is 78 g per mole

the reaction is

AlCl3 + 3 NaOH ---> Al(OH)3 + 3 NaCl

from the reaction it is clear that 1 mole AlCl3 makes 1 mole Al(OH)3

implies 132g AlCl3 gives 78g Al(OH)3

Implies 3g AlCl3 gives

3*122/78 = 1.772 grams
