Why might a chemist add a buffer to a solution?

Chemistry

Levart [38]3 years ago
6 0
A mixture of a weak acid and its conjugate base (or a mixture of a weak base and its conjugate acid) is called a buffer solution, or a buffer. Buffer solutions resist a change in pH when small amounts of a strong acid or a strong base are added . A solution of acetic acid and sodium acetate (CH3COOH + CH3COONa) is an example of a buffer that consists of a weak acid and its salt. An example of a buffer that consists of a weak base and its salt is a solution of ammonia and ammonium chloride (NH3(aq) + NH4Cl(aq)).

Based on the chemical equation, use the drop-down menu to choose the coefficients that will balance the chemical equation: ()zn
Bingel [31]

Based on the chemical equation, to balance the equation we use 2 as a coefficients of HCl on left hand side of reaction.

<h3>What is balanced equation?</h3>

Balanced chemical equations are those equation in which each entities are present in same amount on left side as well as on the right side of the chemical reaction.

Given chemical reaction is:

Zn + HCl → ZnCl₂ + H₂

Above reaction is not balanced equation as number of chlorine and hydrogen atoms are not same, so balanced equation will be:

Zn + 2HCl → ZnCl₂ + H₂

Hence we add 2 as a coefficient of HCl to balance the equation.
