Answer:
The concentration and pKa of an acid and its conjugate base can limit the buffering capacity of a molecule.
Explanation:
A buffer is an acid and its conjugate base and the quality of it depends on its buffer capacity. This buffer capacity is the resistance to change the pH of the solution when strong acids or bases are added. The buffer capacity is related to the buffer concentration, the concentration of the acid end its conjugate base. Also, every acid has a pKa and the buffer capacity is at its maximum at the pKa value and can buffer the solution between ± 1 the pKa value.
Answer:
Mass = 6.538 g
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of zinc hydroxide produced = 9.65 g
Mass of zinc required = ?
Solution:
Chemical equation:
Zn + 2MnO₂ + H₂O → Zn(OH)₂ + Mn₂O₃
Number of moles of zinc hydroxide:
Number of moles = mass/molar mass
Number of moles = 9.65 g/ 99.42 g/mol
Number of moles = 0.1 mol
now we will compare the moles of zinc and zinc hydroxide,
Zn(OH)₂ : Zn
1 : 1
0.1 : 0.1
Mass of zinc required:
Mass = number of moles × molar mass
Mass = 0.1 mol × 65.38 g/mol
Mass = 6.538 g
The electronic configuration of a chlorine ion in BeCl2 compound is
[2.8.8]^- (answer B)
chlorine atom gain on electron form Be to form chloride ions
chlorine atom has a electronic configuration of 2.8.7 and it gains one electron to form chloride ion with 2.8.8 electronic configuration
Their locations can vary depending on the molecule they are associated with but they are usually in a "cloud " that is on the outside of an atom/molecule and if the atom is unstable the electrons tend to be located farther away from the atom.
