Ka = 3.98 × 10−8
The acid ionization equilibrium for HClO at 25°C is shown above. A 0.100 M aqueous solution of this acid has a pH of about 4.2. If a solution with an initial concentration of HClO of 0.200 M is allowed to reach equilibrium at the same temperature, which of the following correctly predicts its pH, and why?
The pH will be lower than 4.2 because increasing the concentration of the weak acid produces more H3O+ to establish equilibrium

NF3 is a weaker base than NH3 because of the greater electronegativity of F compared with H.

[C2H3COOH] > [C2H3COO−] since the pKa of the weak acid is greater than the pH of the solution.
CH3CH2COOH(aq) + H2O(l) ⇄ H3O+(aq) + CH3CH2COO−(aq) Ka = 1.4×10−5 at 25°C
CH3CH2COO−(aq) + H2O(l) ⇄ CH3CH2COOH(aq) + OH−(aq) Kb = 7.4×10−10 at 25°C
The acid equilibrium for CH3CH2COOH and the base equilibrium for CH3CH2COO− are represented above. One liter of a buffer solution with pH = 4.85 is made by mixing 0.100 M CH3CH2COOH and 0.100 M NaCH3CH2COO. If 10.0 mL of 0.500 M NaOH is added to the buffer, which of the following is most likely the resulting pH, and why?
The pH will be slightly greater than 4.85, because some CH3CH2COOH will react with the added bases, resulting in a slight decrease in [H3O+].
A buffer solution that is 0.100 M in both HCOOH and HCOOK has a pH = 3.75. A student says that if a very small amount of 0.100 M HCl is added to the buffer, the pH will decrease by a very small amount. Which of the following best supports the student’s claim?
HCOO− will accept a proton from HCl to produce more HCOOH and H2O.

pH = 4.76 + log(0.100/0.20)
To prepare a buffer solution for an experiment, a student measured out 53.49 g of NH4Cl(s) (molar mass 53.49 g/mol) and added it to 1.0 L of 1.0 M NH3(aq). However, in the process of adding the NH4Cl(s) to the NH3(aq), the student spilled some of the NH4Cl(s) onto the bench top. As a result, only about 50. g of NH4Cl(s) was actually added to the 1.0 M NH3(aq). Which of the following best describes how the buffer capacity of the solution is affected as a result of the spill?
The solution has a greater buffer capacity for the addition of acid than for base, because [NH3] > [NH4+].
HC3H5O2(aq) + H2O(l) ⇄ H3O+(aq) + C3H5O2−(aq)
pKa = 4.87
The acid ionization equilibrium for HC3H5O2 is represented by the equation above. A mixture of 1.00L of 0.100MHC3H5O2 and 0.500L of 0.100MNaOH will produce a buffer solution with a pH=4.87. If the NaOH solution was mislabeled and was 1.00M instead of 0.100M, which of the following would be true?
The pH of the resulting solution would be much higher than 4.87 because the weak acid would be completely neutralized by the larger amount of NaOH added.
The acid ionization equilibrium for HNO2 is represented by the equation above. A 250.0 mL buffer solution is prepared by mixing 125.0 mL of 0.20 M HNO2 and 125.0 mL of 0.1 M NaOH. To test the buffer capacity, the pH is measured and recorded in the table for four samples of the buffer and one sample of a mixture of the buffer and HCl. Which of the following best helps explain why the pH of sample 4 is lower than the pH of the other samples containing only buffer solution?
After measuring the pH of the more acidic sample 3, the pH probe was not rinsed and wiped, resulting in the neutralization of a very small amount of the conjugate base in sample 4.
Which of the following chemical equilibrium equations best shows what happens in the buffer solutions to minimize the change in pH when a small amount of a strong base is added?
HCO3−(aq) + OH−(aq) ⇄ CO32−(aq) + H2O(l)
