How does a buffer resist change in pH upon addition of a strong base?   Question 4 options:   The strong base reacts with the weak base in the buffer to form a weak acid, which produces few H+ ions in solution and therefore only a little change in pH.   The strong base reacts with the strong acid in the buffer to form a salt which produces few H+ ions in solution and therefore only a little change in pH.   The strong base reacts with the weak acid in the buffer to form a weak base, which produces few H+ ions in solution and therefore only a little change in pH.   For the acid/base titration of HNO3 and KOH, choose a suitable indicator from the list below.  Beside each indicator, the pH range of colour change at its endpoint is provided.   Question 5 options:   methyl orange (3.1 - 4.4)   bromothylmol blue (6.0 - 7.7)   thymolphthalein (8.3 - 10.5)
