Energy is released when a new bonds form.
Answer:
Explanation:
The usefulness of a buffer is its ability to resist changes in pH when small quantities of base or acid are added to it. This ability is the consequence of having both the conjugate base and the weak acid present in solution which will consume the added base or acid.
This capacity is lost if the ratio of the concentration of conjugate base to the concentration of weak acid differ by an order of magnitude. Since buffers having ratios differing by more will have their pH driven by either the weak acid or its conjugate base .
From the Henderson-Hasselbach equation we have that
pH = pKa + log [A⁻]/[HA]
thus
0.1 ≤ [A⁻]/[HA] ≤ 10
Therefore the log of this range is -1 to 1, and the pH will have a useful range of within +/- 1 the pKa of the buffer.
Now we are equipped to answer our question:
pH range = 3.9 +/- 1 = 2.9 through 4.9
Answer:
Hot fluids are formed mainly of water and dissolved minerals. They can seep through rocks and chemically react with the minerals in the rocks potentially changing the composition of the rock. Metamorphic rocks can form from other metamorphic rocks.
Answer:
As metals are giant lattice structures, the number of electrostatic forces to be broken is extremely large, and so metals have high melting and boiling points. This means that the melting point and boiling point of metals are more similar to those for ionic compounds than for covalent substances.
Explanation:
Answer:
Polar
Step-by-step explanation:
Electronegativity increases from <em>left to right</em> in the Periodic Table.
Cl is further right than C (both tinted pink) in the portion of the Periodic Table below.
Cl is <em>more electronegative</em> than C, so the Cl has a partial negative charge and the C has a partial positive charge.
The C-Cl bond is polar.
