Answer:
The final and initial concentration of the acid and it's conjugate base are approximately equal, that is we use the weak acid approximation.
Explanation:
The Henderson-Hasselbalch is used to calculate the pH of a buffer solution. It depends on the weak acid approximation.
Since the weak acid ionizes only to a small extent, then we can say that [HA] ≈ [HA]i
Where [HA] = final concentration of the acid and [HA]i = initial concentration of the acid.
It also follows that [A^-] ≈ [A^-]i where [A^-] and[A^-]i refer to final and initial concentrations of the conjugate base hence the answer above.
Answer:
To allow all the elements or compounds to separate complete.
Explanation:
In chromatography, the compounds need some space and time to separate, one from each other, if you just use the half of the paper strip maybe you will not notice the different spots of compounds. Remember all the substances have different affinity for the solvents, that means, some react very quickly but others need more time as the colors that conform the black color in an ink.
Answer: It is important for an equation to be balanced because if it is not then the reactants won't match the products.
Explanation: I don't know if you will understand this but here:
Let's say you're cooking eggs, you're reactants so to speak would be 3 eggs and 1 tablespoon of oil so you put it together using heat and a pan. Your products have to match what you have in the beginning. You cannot have an equation that looks like this
Reactants = 3eggs + 1Tbsp oil ---pan/heat---> 6eggs + 1 cup of oil
You cannot get something from what you don't have. The number of how much of an element you have must be the same of both sides of the equation.
1 mol of formic acid is correct. There are two oxygen atoms in formic acid, compared to just one for the other molecules.
An average quality lawn captures 4 times the carbon output of a typical gasoline-powered mower.
