Question

If you mix equal volumes of each of the following pairs of solutions, which will make a buffer solution? a) 0.10 M HCI and 0.10 M NaOH b) 0.50 M HCI and 0.50 M HCI and 0.25 M CH_3 CO_2 H c) 0.50 M NaOH and 0.25 M CH_2 CO_2 H d) 0.44 M NaOH and 0.25 M CH_3 CO_2 H e) 0.10 M NaOH and 0.20 M NH_3 the K_a of acetic acid (CH_3 COOH) is 1.8 times 10^-8. If you prepare a solution of 0.25 M sodium acetate (the acid's congregate base), what is the resulting pH? a) 4.75 b) 9.26 c) 11.32 d) 9.07 e) 8.15 Which of the following reactions will have an increase in entropy? a) H_2 O (g) rightarrow H_2 O (I) b) 3 H_2 (g) + N_2 (g) rightarrow 2 NH_3 (g) c) CaCO_2 (s) rightarrow CaO(s) + CO_2 (g) d) H^+ (aq0 + CH_2 CO^- (aq) rightarrow CH_3 COOH (aq) e) Ca^2+ (aq) + 2 OH^- (aq) rightarrow Cu(OH)_2 (s)

Explanation / Answer

44)

acidic buffer is formed by weak acid and salt of weak acid
basic buffer is formed by weak base and salt of weak base

A)
It doesn't form a buffer as it is mixture of strong acid and strong base

B)
It doesn't form a buffer as it is mixture of strong acid and weak acid

C)
CH3COOH will react with NaOH to form CH3COONa but the problem here is all of CH3COOH react and hence finally, it will contain CH3COONa and NaOH. Both are base. this is happening because NaOH is in excess
It doesn't form a buffer

D)
CH3COOH will react with NaOH to form CH3COONa and also NaOH is less
So after raection CH3COONa and CH3COOH will be there
This is buffer

E)
It doesn't form a buffer as it is mixture of strong base and weak base
