You are asked to prepare a pH = 3.00 buffer solution starting from 1.25 L of a 1.00 M solution of hydrofluoric acid (HF) and any amount you need of sodium fluoride (NaF).
a. What is the pH of the hydrofluoric acid solution prior to adding sodium fluoride?
b. How many grams of sodium fluoride should be added to prepare the buffer solution? Neglect the small volume change that occurs when the sodium fluoride is added.

- 7. Describe a buffered solution. Give three examples of buffered solutions. For each of your examples, write equations and explain how the components of the buffered solution consume added strong acids or bases. Why is buffering of solutions in biological systems so important?arrow_forwardA 5.36-g sample of NH4Cl was added to 25.0 mL of 1.00 M NaOH and the resulting solution diluted to 0.100 L.. (a) What is the pH of this buffer solution?. (b) Is the solution acidic or basic?. (c) What is the pH of a solution that results when 3.00 mL of 0.034 M HCl is added to the solution?arrow_forwardUse Le Chátelier's principle to explain what happens to the equilibrium H2O(l)H+(aq)+OH(aq) when a few drops of HCl are added to pure water.arrow_forward

- 18. In carrying out a titration of a potassium hydroxide solution with a standard hydrochloric acid solution, a student misread the volume on the burette. That is, the actual volume recorded was smaller than the volume required to reach the end point. How will this error affect the calculated concentration of the potassium hydroxide solution? The calculated concentration will be larger than the actual concentration. b. The calculated concentration will be smaller than the actual concentration. The calculated concentration will be the correct concentration. а. с. d. There is no way to determine how this error will affect the calculation. The calculated concentration will be the actual concentration. е.arrow_forwardA 1.00 liter solution contains 0.35 M nitrous acid and 0.45 M potassium nitrite. If 0.110 moles of barium hydroxide are added to this system, indicate whether the following statements are true or false.

- 6.) A 25.00 mL sample of HCL is titrated with 0.1001 M NaOH. 49.90 mL of base is required to reach equivalence and completely neutralize the sample of acid. a. What is the initial concentration of the acid sample? What is the initial pH? b. What is the pH of the solution at equivalence? What indicator should be used? c. What is the pH of the solution after the addition of 25.00 mL of NaOH?arrow_forwardLactic acid is a monoprotic acid with the formula C3O3H6. You have a 25.00 mL sample of lactic acid with a concentration between 1.00 M and 3.00 M.To determine the exact concentration of this sample of lactic acid, you decide to perform a titration. What titrant should you use? a. 2.50 M Lactic Acid b. 10.5 M NaOH c. 1.75 M Ethanol d. 1.25 M KOH e. 2.00 M HClarrow_forward3. a. You want to prepare 1.00 L of a buffer solution with a pH of 3.5. You are given an 0.45 M solution of nitrous acid, HNO, and an 0.68 M solution of NAOH. What volume of each of these solutions must be mixed in order to get the desired buffer solution? Use the simultaneous equations method to solve this problem. b. If the acid used in a. was nitric acid, HNO, could the same buffer solution be made? Briefly explain. If the buffer solution prepared in a. also contained ~10°M Ni²* and ~10-6 M Pb²* , could those metal ions be separated from each other by saturating the solution with H,S? Explain your answer by showing the necessary calculations. C.arrow_forward
