How does a buffer regulate ph? a. it changes ka and kb of added acids and bases. b. it prevents added acids or bases from reacting. c. it removes added h+ or oh– from the solution. d. it lowers the activation energy of the reaction.?

C is the correct answer.a buffer reacts with the added acid or base which can produce H+ or hydroxide ion,or a kind of removing H+ or hydroxide added to solution.remember that buffers don't prevent additional acid or base from reacting,they react with the additional themselves.the A and D are completely wrong.

If a hydrogen atom is neutral, it must also have  one electron. an oxygen atom (o) has an atomic number of eight (8). this means a neutral oxygen atom has eight protons and eight electrons. the element actium (ac) has an atomic number of 89, so it has 89 protons and 89 electrons in a neutral atom
