## Buffer Solutions and pH Calculation

### Overview

A buffer solution is prepared with a concentration of 0.360 M in HNO₂ and 0.360 M in KNO₂.

### Calculation Task

1. **Determine the pH** of the buffer solution.
   - The \( K_a \) (acid dissociation constant) for HNO₂ is \( 4.50 \times 10^{-4} \).

2. **Net Ionic Equation**
   - When 0.095 mol of KOH is added to 1.00 L of the buffer solution, write the net ionic equation for the reaction.
   - Use the lowest possible coefficients and omit states of matter.

### Required Inputs:

- **pH Calculation Box:** Provide the calculated pH value.
  
- **Net Ionic Equation:**
  - Input fields for reactants and products of the equation.

### Interactivity

- **Submit Answer Button:** Submit your calculated pH and net ionic equation.
- **Retry Option:** Option to retry the entire group of questions.
- **Progress Tracker:** Shows progress as "1/3 groups."

### Deadlines

- **Due Date:** November 28 at 11:55 PM.

### Additional Features

- **Navigation Buttons:** Access to previous and next sections to enhance learning flow.
- **Information Tabs:** Access "Review Topics" and "References" for necessary background information.

This educational exercise is designed to strengthen understanding of buffer solutions, their pH calculations, and chemical equations in reactions involving strong bases.
