Polyprotic acids such as H3PO4, can act as acid-base buffers at pH values around neutrality if their concentration is kept low only in combination with polyprotic bases at pH values around any of their pKa's TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
A compound that is capable of forming hydrogen bonds with water should act as a good buffer for acids and bases contains at least some polar covalent bonds is probably held together by noncovalent bonds does not dissolve well in water TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
The elements oxygen, nitrogen, and carbon can all form covalent bonds with other elements All of these contain protons and neutrons in their atomic nuclei are common elements in the molecules that make up living organisms TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
The lone pair electrons on oxygen in a H20 molecule form covalent bonds in ice carry a partial negative charge are not important for the properties of water carry a partial positive charge TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
Which of the following statements about water is correct? Nonpolar substances like oils are not soluble in it It is critical for many of the chemical processes found in living systems Polar substances that can form hydrogen bonds will dissolve in it All of these TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
Which of the following character does not apply to water? All three atoms in the water molecule readily form hydrogen bonds The covalent bonds in water are highly polarized The water molecule readily forms hydrophobic interactions The water molecule is asymmetric TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
Buffer solutions tend to maintain a relatively constant pH. will always have a pH of 7 cause a decrease in pH when acids are added to them. are rarely found in living systems TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
A Bronsted acid becomes __________ upon losing a proton. its conjugate base its conjugate acid a hydronium ion highly reactive TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
Salt dissolves well in water as water molecules make nonpolar covalent bonds with the positively charged ions only form hydrogen bonds with the positively and negatively charged ions surround the ions because of their charge but do not form hydrogen bonds share electrons with the ions to make polar covalent bonds TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
