Homeostasis:

It is a characteristic of a system that regulates its internal environment and tends to maintain a stable, relatively constant condition of properties.

In plant it is necessary to maintain homeostasis to function properly. Endocrine plays an important role in homeostasis as hormones regulate the activity of body cells and the release of hormones into the blood is controlled by a stimulus that either causes an increase or a decrease in the amount of hormone secreted.

Which of the following has the strongest buffering capacity? A. H2O B. 0.1 M HCl C. 0.1 M carbonic/bicarbonate (H2CO3/HCO3-) at
enyata [817]

Explanation:

(A)   As we know that carbonic acid (H_{2}CO_{3}) and Sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO_{3}) forms an acidic buffer.

Therefore, pH of an acidic buffer is given by Hendeerson-Hasselbalch equation as follows.

               pH = pK_{a} + log(\frac{[Salt]}{[Acid]}) ........... (1)

So mathematically,  if [Salt] = [Acid]  then \frac{[Salt]}{[Acid]} = 1 .

And,  log (\frac{[Salt]}{[Acid]}) = 0

Therefore, equation (1) gives us the following.

         pH = pK_{a} (when acid and salt are equal in concentration)

Hence, pK_{a} of H_{2}CO_{3} (carbonic acid) is 6.35.

And, with this we have following results.

In (A) and (D) we have the case \frac{[NaHCO_{3}]}{[H_{2}CO_{3}]}[/tex] i.e. [Salt] = [Acid].

Hence, for the cases pH = pK_{a} = 6.35.

(B)    [NaHCO_{3}] = 0.045 M and,  [H_{2}CO_{3}] = 0.45 M

Hence,   pH = 6.35 + log([NaHCO_{3}][[H_{2}CO_{3}])

                     = 6.35 + log(\frac{0.045}{0.45})

                     = 6.35 + (-1)

                     = 5.35

Therefore, it means that this buffer will be most suitable buffer as it has pH on acidic side and addition of slight excess base will not affect much of its pH value.

(C)    [NaHCO_{3}] = 0.45 M [H_{2}CO_{3}]

                          = 0.045 M

So,       pH = 6.35 + log(\frac{[NaHCO_{3}]}{[H_{2}CO_{3}]})

                  = 6.35 + log(\frac{0.45}{0.045})

                  = 6.35 + (+1)

                 = 7.35

This means that pH on Basic side makes it no more acidic buffer.

5<br> - HCN +<br> CuSO4 →<br> Type of reaction
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

CuSO_{4}+2HCN\rightarrow Cu(CN)_{2}+H_{2}SO_{4}

Explanation:

The valancy of Cu = +2

SO4 = -2

CN = -1

H =+1

So when HCN and CuSO4 react Cu(CN)2 and H2SO4 are formed.

Cu(CN)2 formation :

2 CN = 2 x -1  = -2

Its should attach to +2 charge atom which is Cu

So 1 Cu and 2 CN = Cu(CN)2

Similary,

H2SO4 formation:

SO4 = -2 charge

It require +2 charge so need two H+

2 H = 2x1 = +2 charge

Hence , 1 SO4 and 2 H combine to form H2SO4

<u><em>Law of conservation of mass:</em></u><em> It states that mass can neither be created nor destroyed during a chemical reaction.</em>

<em>Total mass of the reactant must be equal to total mass of product.</em>

<u>Only those equations are balanced which follows law of conservation of mass </u>

Count total number of atoms in the reactant and product .

The number of atoms in the product = The number of atoms in the reactant

In the given equation:

CuSO_{4}+2HCN\rightarrow Cu(CN)_{2}+H_{2}SO_{4}

Reactant are 2HCN and CuSO4

atoms of H = 1x2=2 , C=1x2=2  , N=1x2=2 , Cu = 1, S = 1 ,O =4

Products: Cu(CN)2 and H2SO4

atoms of H =2 , S=1 , O=4 ,C = 2x1=2 , N = 2x1 =2 , Cu = 1

Hence this is balance equation
