Answer:
1. d. 5,05
2. a. It has a greater resistance to changes in pH from the addition of acids than bases.
3. The addition of 0.0mL of 6.0M HCl will not change the pH.
Explanation:
To know the pH of the buffer you need to use Henderson-Hasselbalch formula:
pH = pka + logāā [tex]\frac{[A^-]}{[HA]}[/tex]
Where pka is -logāā K,. Thus, pka = 4,75
[Aā»] is concentration of acetate: 2,0 M
[HA] is acetic acid concentration: 1,0 M
Thus, pH of this buffer is: 5,05
The range of work in a buffer is pka ± 1. As the buffer has a pH higher than pka -more basic- will has a greater resistance to changes in pH from the addition of acids than bases.
The addition of 0.0mL of 6.0M HCl will not change the pH.
I hope it helps!
