What two components make up a buffered solution?
Buffer solution is a type of solution which contains acid and at the same time a base material. The two components are a weak acid and a conjugate base or a weak base and its conjugate acid.
Is HPO4 2 acid or base?
It is acid AND base together, at the same time (amphoteric).acid : HPO42- + H2O H3O+ + PO43- pKa = 12.32 (very weak acid)base: HPO42- + H2O OH- + H2PO4- pKb = 6.79 (rather weak base)
Is the formula HCI a base?
If you meant HCl, Hydrochloric Acid, it is a strong acid and not a base. A way to tell if it is an acid is that it has an H+ in the chemical formula. Most of the time, if it is a base it has an OH- attached to the chemical formula, but this is not necessarily true for all bases.
Is ferrous oxide acidic?
No, it is both acidic and basic, called amphoteric (='in between')Yes, it is amphoteric, at the same time it behaves like acid AND like base:it acts as an acid when in a base: FeO(s) + 2OH-(aq) +H20(l) -> [Fe(OH)4]2-(aq)it reacts as a base when in acid: FeO(s) + 2H+(aq) -> Fe2+(aq) + H2O(l)
What happens when acid and alkali react?
Acid reacts with base to give water and respected salt only.
If a base is toxic is it an acid?
No, Because a substance that is a base cannot be an acid at the same time

Why can't a chemical be both base and an acid?
An "acid" is a chemical that has a PH lower than 7.0 and a "base" is a chemical that has a PH higher than 7.0. It would be impossible for a chemical to have a PH both lower and higher than 7.0 at the same time. Pure water has a PH of exactly 7.0 and is therefore neither an acid nor a base.
What is base unit for time?
the same as the base unit OF time.
What is the base for time units?
the same as the base unit OF time.
Amino acid funtional group?
Amino acids have both amine and carboxylic acid functional groups and are therefore both an acid and a base at the same time.

Is zinc oxide an amphoteric oxide?
Yes, it is amphoteric, at the same time it behaves like acid AND like base:it acts as an acid when in a base: ZnO(s) + 2OH-(aq) +H20(l) -> [Zn(OH)4]2-(aq)it reacts as a base when in acid: ZnO(s) + 2H+(aq) -> Zn2+(aq) + H2O(l)
What is universal indicator solution and how does it work?
universal indicator solution can be used to determine acid or base at the same time . Its changes its colour and helps in determing the chwmical property
What does the sync Latin base mean?
Sync means in the same time or at the same time
