NaCHO would increase the ph of the solution

NaBr and KCl are neutral substances that cannot change the pH of the formic acid solution.

Since HCl is a potent acid, adding more of it will cause the pH of the solution to decrease even more. Regarding NaCHO, it stands for sodium citrate, which is a weak base. NaCHO can thereby increase the pH of the formic acid solution.

There are many different ways to define acids and bases. According to the bronsted-Lowry definition, a base is a proton acceptor, whereas an acid is a proton giver. According to Lewis, an acid is an electron pair acceptor, whereas a base is an electron pair giver.

How is calculating a weighted average

kirza4 [7]

Answer:

The Key difference between average vs weighted average is that simple average is nothing but simply adding up all the observation values and dividing the same by the total number of observations to calculate the average whereas weighted average is an average where each observation value will have a frequency assigned.
