You are asked to prepare a buffer solution with a pH of 3.50. The following solutions, all 0.100 M, are available to you: HCOOH, CH3COOH, H3PO4 , NaCHOO, NaCH3COO, and NaH2PO4. What would be the best combination to make the required buffer solution? Select one: a.NaH2PO4 and HCOOH b. NaH2PO4 and NaCHOO c. CH3COOH and NaCH3COO d. HCOOH and NaCHOO e. H3PO4 and NaH2PO4
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.
