Vedclass · Answer

(A) The solution is a buffer solution consisting of a weak acid $(CH_3COOH)$ and its salt with a strong base $(CH_3COONa)$.Using the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation for $[H^+]$:$[H^+] = K_a 	imes \frac{[Acid]}{[Salt]}$Given:$K_a = 1.8 	imes 10^{-5}$$[Acid] = [CH_3COOH] = 0.10 \ M$$[Salt] = [CH_3COONa] = 0.20 \ M$Substituting the values:$[H^+] = 1.8 	imes 10^{-5} 	imes \frac{0.10}{0.20}$$[H^+] = 1.8 	imes 10^{-5} 	imes 0.5$$[H^+] = 0.9 	imes 10^{-5} = 9.0 	imes 10^{-6} \ M$

What is the concentration of $[H^+]$ in $mol/L$ in a mixed solution of $0.20 \ M \ CH_3COONa$ and $0.10 \ M \ CH_3COOH$? (Given: $K_a$ of $CH_3COOH = 1.8 \times 10^{-5}$)

Which among the following pairs is not an acidic buffer?

The $K_a$ of $CH_3COOH$ is $1.8 \times 10^{-5}$. How many grams of $CH_3COONa$ are required in $0.1 \ M \ CH_3COOH$ to form a solution having $pH = 4.0$? (Molecular mass of $CH_3COONa = 82 \ g \ mol^{-1}$)

The $pH$ of a solution containing $0.10 \ M$ sodium acetate and $0.03 \ M$ acetic acid $(pK_a = 4.57)$ at $298 \ K$ will be ...........

The $pH$ of a sodium acetate buffer solution is given by the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation: $pH = pK_a + \log \frac{[Salt]}{[Acid]}$. For acetic acid,if $[Salt] = [Acid] = 0.1 \ M$,then the $pH$ of the solution is: $[K_a = 1.8 \times 10^{-5}]$

Which among the following pairs constitutes a buffer?
