2. Buffer capacity has a rather loose definition, yet it is an important property of buffers. A commonly seen definition of buffer capacity is: "The amount of H* or OH that can be neutralized before the pH changes to a significant degree." Use your data to determine the buffer capacity of Buffer A and Buffer B. 3. Say, for example, that you had prepared a Buffer C, in which you mixed 8.203 g of sodium acetate, NaC₂H3O2, with 100.0 mL of 1.0 M acetic acid. a. What would be the initial pH of Buffer C? b. If you add 5.0 mL of 0.5 M NaOH solution to 20.0 ml. affer B
Ionic Equilibrium
Chemical equilibrium and ionic equilibrium are two major concepts in chemistry. Ionic equilibrium deals with the equilibrium involved in an ionization process while chemical equilibrium deals with the equilibrium during a chemical change. Ionic equilibrium is established between the ions and unionized species in a system. Understanding the concept of ionic equilibrium is very important to answer the questions related to certain chemical reactions in chemistry.
Arrhenius Acid
Arrhenius acid act as a good electrolyte as it dissociates to its respective ions in the aqueous solutions. Keeping it similar to the general acid properties, Arrhenius acid also neutralizes bases and turns litmus paper into red.
Bronsted Lowry Base In Inorganic Chemistry
Bronsted-Lowry base in inorganic chemistry is any chemical substance that can accept a proton from the other chemical substance it is reacting with.
![**DATA ANALYSIS**
1. Write reaction equations to explain how your acetic acid-acetate buffer reacts with a base.
2. Buffer capacity has a rather loose definition, yet it is an important property of buffers. A buffer capacity is the amount of \[H^+\] or \[OH^-\] that can be neutralized before the pH changes significantly. Use your data to determine the buffer capacity of Buffer A and Buffer B.
3. Say, for example, that you had prepared a Buffer C, in which you mixed 8.203 g of sodium acetate, NaC2H3O2, with 100.0 mL of 1.00 M acetic acid.
a. What would be the initial pH of Buffer C?
b. If you add mL of 0.5 M NaOH solution to 20.0 mL each of Buffer B and Buffer C, which buffer's pH would change less? Explain.
**DATA TABLE**
| Mass of NaC2H3O2 used to prepare buffer (g) | Volume of buffer prepared (mL) | Molar concentration of HCl/Na2O2 buffer (M) | Initial pH of buffer | Volume of 0.5 M HCl to lower pH by 2 units (mL) | Volume of 0.5 M NaOH to raise pH by 2 units (mL) | Volume of 0.5 M NaOH at equivalence point (mL) |
|---------------------------------------------|--------------------------------|---------------------------------------------|----------------------|-------------------------------------------------|--------------------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------------|
| Buffer A | 0.15139 | 100.0 | 1.5 mL | 4.79 | 1.0 mL | 1.5 mL |
| Buffer B | 1.50018 | 100.0 | 10 | 4.73 | 1.9 mL | 2 mL | 4.5 mL | 90 mL |
The above table provides detailed data regarding the preparation and characterization of two different buffers, Buffer A and Buffer B, including their initial pH levels and their reactions with acid and base solutions.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F9fdad347-f735-4012-90dd-d6f7d68bdff1%2Fa6fb7547-498e-48fd-8661-864c1b4fe661%2F4s8c40t_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
