onsider exactly one litre of a propanoic acid buffer solution, containing 0.600 M C3H5OOH and 0.252 M C3H5OO- . 3.1 Determine the pH of the buffer solution. 3.2 Determine by means of a full calculation the change in pH of the buffer solution that will result when 100. mL of a 1.00 × 10−2 M HCℓ solution is added to it. You must indicate all the relevant reaction equations in your working.
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.
Consider exactly one litre of a propanoic acid buffer solution, containing 0.600 M C3H5OOH and 0.252 M C3H5OO- .
3.1 Determine the pH of the buffer solution.
3.2 Determine by means of a full calculation the change in pH of the buffer solution that will result when 100. mL of a 1.00 × 10−2 M HCℓ solution is added to it. You must indicate all the relevant reaction equations in your working.
If a strong acid is added in a buffer then it reacts with the conjugate base of the acid while if a strong base is added then it reacts with the weak acid.
