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.
I think it’s 1 mole
If Iam not mistaken
I think you divide something
<span><em>Answer:</em>
A strontium-90 atom that has a lost two electrons has <u>38</u> protons, <u>52</u> neutrons, and <u>36</u> electrons.
<em>Explanation:
</em>Atomic number<em> of </em>Strontium (Sr) is 38.
<em>Atomic number = number of protons
</em>Hence, Strontium has 38 protons.
If the element is in neutral state,
number of protons = number of electrons.
Then, neutral Strontium atom should have 38 electrons.
But the question says Sr has lost 2 electrons. Hence, number of electrons should be 38 - 2 = 36.
Mass number = number of protons + number of neutrons.
The given mass number is 90. Hence, number of neutrons should be 90 - 38 = 52.</span>
