I remember coming across this question and the options were:
KOH, HCN, NH₃, HI, Sr(OH)₂

Now, a substance with a low pH is one that dissociates completely in water to release hydrogen ions, while basic substances dissociate completely to release hydroxide ions. Therefore, in the order of increasing pH:
HI, HCN, NH₃, Sr(OH)₂, KOH

What volumes of 0.200 M HCOOH and 2.00 M NaOH would make 500. mL of a buffer with the same pH as one made from 475 mL of 0.200 M

Fed [463]

36 ml of NaOh and 464 ml of HCOOH would be enough to form 500 ml of a buffer with the same pH as the buffer made with benzoic acid and NaOH.

What is benzoic acid found in?

Some natural sources of benzoic acid include: Fruits: Apricots, prunes, berries, cranberries, peaches, kiwi, bananas, watermelon, pineapple, oranges.
Spices: Cinnamon, cloves, allspice, cayenne pepper, mustard seeds, thyme, turmeric, coriander.

Calculate the amount of moles in NaOH and benzoic acid. This calculation is done by multiplying molarity by volume.

Amount of moles of NaOH -2 × 0.025 = 0.05 mol

Amount of moles of benzoic acid 2 × 0.475 = 0.095 mol

In this case, we can calculate the pH produced by the buffer of these two reagents, as follows

$pH = pKa + log\frac{base}{acid}$
