    Buffer Systems As humans, we constantly need to regulate our bodily pH. This regulation process is called homeostasis, and is controlled by the hypothalamus and pituitary gland by a buffering system. A buffer solution is used to maintain the pH at a safe acidity. “A buffer solution is an aqueous solution consisting of a mixture of a weak acid and its conjugate base or a weak base and its conjugate acid” (Boundless, 2010) Equation 1 – Generic Buffer Equation HA (aq) + H2O (l) --> H3O+(aq) + A-(aq) Note that equation 1 is reversible, and all equations that are reversible have to be at a state of.equilibrium. This brings us to the Le Chatelier’s principle, of “Restoring Balance” Le Chatelier’s principle states that if a.constraint (such as a change in pressure, temperature, or concentration of a reactant) is.applied to a system at equilibrium, the equilibrium.will shift so as to.counteract the effect of the constraint. This is an extremely important function to keep all features at equilibrium, and in this case, optimum pH.…

    there is enough of CO and H2O to fulfill the necessary reactions. Adding water vapor will cause the reaction quotient to shrink, and again become smaller than the equilibrium constant. The reaction creating more products will speed up, as there is more H2O that needs to be removed in order to counter the change, as described in Le Chatelier’s Principle. This is essentially caused by H2O having more chances to randomly collide with CO, increasing the probability of the reaction forming H2 and…

    Nowadays, Benevolence is not a word used often, or maybe even at all. But there are still examples of what it means to be benevolent every day around us through different people and acts of kindness every day. And yes, even if most people can not spell it, it is still very important to use on a daily basis. However, even if one is benevolent that does not mean it is okay to act in a ‘better than thou’ or in any way all high and mighty in any way. Acting in such a manner is the complete opposite…

    4.) The concept of a “harm of deprivation” would be that it means the harm of death, it doesn't harm the person by causing her to be in a bad state, it harms the person by depriving her of bad things. Being dead is not like being in pain, you cant suffer if you’re dead. Death is not an ordinary harm, an ordinary harm for example would be if someone were to break your arm, they harm you because they cause you to be in a certain state: pain.
