Answer:
A) [H3PO4] will increase, [KH2PO4] will decrease, and pH will slightly decrease.
Explanation:
A buffer is a solution which resists changes to its pH when a small amount of acid or base is added to it.
Buffers consist of a weak acid (HA) and its conjugate base (A–) or a weak base and its conjugate acid. Weak acids and bases do not completely dissociate in water, and instead exist in solution as an equilibrium of dissociated and undissociated species. When a small quantity of a strong acid is added to a buffer solution, the conjugate base, A-, reacts with the hydrogen ions from the added acid to form the weak acid and a salt thereby removing the extra hydrogen ions from the solution and keeping the pH of the solution fairly constant. On the other hand, if a small quantity of a strong base is added to the buffer solution, the weak acid dissociates further to release hydrogen ions which then react with the hydroxide ions of the added base to form water and the conjugate base.
For example, if a small amount of strong acid is added to a buffer solution that is 0.700 M H3PO4 and 0.700 M KH2PO4, the following reaction is obtained:
KH₂PO₄ + H+ ----> K+ + H₃PO₄
Therefore, [H₃PO₄] will increase, [KH₂PO₄] will decrease, and pH will slightly decrease.:
The modern day model of an atom has a lot of questions answered about it answered and is very accurate while John's version was a very early model before technology was advanced enough to get more information on it so it was very basic and not as accurate as today's model. Hope this helps!
Answer:
D: a heterogeneous mixture with components of varying sizes
Heterogeneous mixture is a combination of substances that doesn't have uniform composition and properties. Just by looking at the mixture you can differentiate the compounds because they are so different. Using a sieve, allows the components with different sizes to separate, while one is retained, the others can pass the holes in the sieve.
