Word equation for k(s) +h2o(l) yield koh (aq) + h2

Answer asap need by wednesday morning explain how a buffer works, using an ethanoic acid/sodium ethanoate system including how the system resists changes in ph upon addition of a small amount of base and upon addition of a small amount of acid respectively. include the following calculations in your i. calculate the ph of a solution made by mixing 25cm3 0.1m ch3cooh and 40cm3 0.1m ch3coo-na+. [ka = 1.74 x 10-5 m] ii. calculate the ph following the addition of a 10cm3 portion of 0.08 m naoh to 500cm3 of this buffer solution. iii. calculate the ph following the addition of a 10cm3 portion of 0.08 m hcl to 200cm3 of the original buffer solution.

You exhale co2 which is produced during cellular respiration.  co2 combines with the water in your blood's plasma to make up one half of the body's most important buffer pair, carbonic acid.  the more physical activity you engage in, the more co2 your body is producing.  you can see this by putting some of the cabbage indicator in a glass and then blowing bubbles into it through a straw.  can you see a change in the color of the indicator?
