What happens when a strong acid is added to a buffered solution?
The basic form of the buffer becomes protonated.
When a strong base is added to a buffered solution, what occurs?
The acid form of the buffer becomes deprotonated.
Why does a buffer resist changes in pH?
Its conjugate acid–base pair neutralizes added strong acids or bases.
What happens to acetate when HCl is added to an acetic acid/acetate buffer?
Acetate (CH₃COO⁻) is protonated to form acetic acid.
What is the result of adding NaOH to an acetic acid/acetate buffer?
Acetic acid (CH₃COOH) is deprotonated to form acetate.
