  2. Ammonia solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ammonia_solution

    In aqueous solution, ammonia deprotonates a small fraction of the water to give ammonium and hydroxide according to the following equilibrium: . NH 3 + H 2 O ⇌ NH + 4 + OH −.. In a 1 M ammonia solution, about 0.42% of the ammonia is converted to ammonium, equivalent to pH = 11.63 because [NH +

    The ocean contains a natural buffer system to maintain a pH between 8.1 and 8.3. [11] The oceans buffer system is known as the carbonate buffer system. [ 12 ] The carbonate buffer system is a series of reactions that uses carbonate as a buffer to convert C O 2 {\displaystyle \mathrm {CO_{2}} } into bicarbonate . [ 12 ]

  4. Ammonia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ammonia

    Ammonia is moderately basic; a 1.0 M aqueous solution has a pH of 11.6, and if a strong acid is added to such a solution until the solution is neutral (pH = 7), 99.4% of the ammonia molecules are protonated. Temperature and salinity also affect the proportion of ammonium [NH 4] +.

  5. pH - Wikipedia

    For instance, a 5×10 −8 M solution of HCl would be expected to have a pH of 7.3 based on the above procedure, which is incorrect as it is acidic and should have a pH of less than 7. In such cases, the system can be treated as a mixture of the acid or base and water, which is an amphoteric substance.

  6. Ammonium sulfate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ammonium_sulfate

    Heating at higher temperatures results in decomposition into ammonia, nitrogen, sulfur dioxide, and water. [17] As a salt of a strong acid (H 2 SO 4) and weak base (NH 3), its solution is acidic; the pH of 0.1 M solution is 5.5. In aqueous solution the reactions are those of NH + 4 and SO 2−

  7. Buffer solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buffer_solution

    Buffer capacity falls to 33% of the maximum value at pH = pK a ± 1, to 10% at pH = pK a ± 1.5 and to 1% at pH = pK a ± 2. For this reason the most useful range is approximately p K a ± 1. When choosing a buffer for use at a specific pH, it should have a p K a value as close as possible to that pH.

  8. Protonic ceramic fuel cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protonic_ceramic_fuel_cell

    A protonic ceramic fuel cell or PCFC is a fuel cell based around a ceramic, solid, electrolyte material as the proton conductor from anode to cathode. [1] These fuel cells produce electricity by removing an electron from a hydrogen atom, pushing the charged hydrogen atom through the ceramic membrane, and returning the electron to the hydrogen ...
