Water is called a universal solvent because of its ability to dissolve different types of substances.
The basic unit of life is cell and a large portion of living cell (60%) is made up of water, this is because cells need water to survive. Biochemical reactions are always ongoing in the living cells and water act as solvents under which these reactions occur. Because of the high solubility of water, it is able to dissolve various substances needed by the body, this makes it easy for the substance to participate in chemical reactions and to move from one point to another. Without water biochemical reactions will not be able to occur in cells and this will lead to the death of the cells.
Disadvantages of aluminum in building cars include:
On average, aluminum is more expensive than steel, as much as two to three times.
Aluminum is not easily welded. If a steel door or panel suffers a crack, often it cam be welded back together easily, primed and repainted so its difficult to tell any body work has been performed. This cannot be done with aluminum. Steel also can be bent and shaped as needed.
Body shops and even dealer service centers are currently equipped for steel work with technicians skilled in the art of welding and steel fabrication. The cost of switching over to an infra structure designed specifically for all-aluminum vehicles or mass production of aluminum vehicles and components would be high.

Answer:
According to Le-chatelier principle, equilibrium will shift towards left to minimize concentration of
and keep same equilibrium constant
Explanation:
In this buffer following equilibrium exists -

So,
is involved in the above equilibrium.
When a strong base is added to this buffer, then concentration of
increases. Hence, according to Le-chatelier principle, above equilibrium will shift towards left to minimize concentration of
and keep same equilibrium constant.
Therefore excess amount of
combines with
to produce ammonia and water. So, effect of addition of strong base on pH of buffer gets minimized.
