Which of the following is a neutral salt? a. uso, b. KNO, 7. For which of the following mixtures would the common ion effect apply: a. HCIO,-HCIO c. It would apply in both cases 8. A buffer: Prevents changes in pH Resists changes in pH a. b. 9. A buffer is effective: a. At up to ± 1 from the pH b. At up to I from the pk, 10. The equivalence point of a strong acid: a. Is at pH 7 b. Is above pH7 c. is below pH-7Explanation / Answer
I am solving the first 4 question after 1 as it is already solved as per Chegg guidelines, post multiple question to get the remaining answers
2)
Strong acid will have higher [H+] than weak acid, which will lead to lower value of pH, since pH = -log[H+]
correct answer is option a (pH of weak acid will be higher than pH of strong acid]
3)
Conjugate base can be obtained by removing [H+], which means conjugate base will be HCO3-
4)
Correct answer is option b
Since FeCl3 salt is made by weak base Fe(OH)3 and strong acid HCl, so it will be acidic in nature
5)
NaNO3 since it is a salt of strong base NaOH and weak acid HNO3
