Some babies with torticollis also will develop a flat head (positional plagiocephaly) on one or both sides from lying in one direction all the time. Or they might develop a small neck lump or bump, which is similar to a knot in a tense muscle. Both of these conditions tend to go away as the torticollis gets better.
Sodium Silicate, Sodium Metasilicate and Potassium Silicate may be used in cosmetics and personal care products marketed in Europe according to the general provisions of the Cosmetics Regulation of the European Union.
A buffer is simply a mixture of a weak acid and its conjugate base or a weak base and its conjugate acid. Buffers work by reacting with any added acid or base to control the pH.For example, let's consider the action of a buffer composed of the weak base ammonia, NH 3, and its conjugate acid, NH 4 + .When HCl is added to that buffer, the NH 3 soaks up the acid's proton to become NH 4 + .ow Buffers Work. As you have seen in calculating the pH of solutions, only a small amount of a strong acid is necessary to drastically alter the pH. For certain experiments, however, it is desirable to keep a fairly constant pH while acids or bases are added to the solution either by reaction or by the experimenter.
