How does a buffer resist change in ph upon addition of a strong acid?

Chemistry

Any buffer exists in this equilibrium
 
  HA <=> H^+ + A^-
In a buffer, there is a large reservoir of both the undissociated acid (HA) and its conjugate base (A^-) 

When a strong acid is added, it reacts with the large reservoir of the conjugate base (A^-) forming a salt and water. Since this large reservoir of the conjugate base is used, the ph does not alter drastically, but instead resist the pH change.

What is the correct formula for combining Mg2+ and Br1+
True [87]

Answer: The correct formula is MgBr_2

Explanation:

For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.  

Here magnesium is having an oxidation state of +2 called as Mg^{2+} cation and bromine Br^{-} is an anion with oxidation state of -1. Thus they combine and their oxidation states are exchanged and written in simplest whole number ratios to give neutral MgBr_2.

The cations and anions being oppositely charged attract each other through strong coloumbic forces and form an ionic bond.

The addition of an inert gas has no effect on the equilibrium position of a gaseous reaction because ______. Multiple choice que
boyakko [2]

Inert gas does not affect the equilibrium position:

It is because the partial pressures of the reaction components remain the same.

What is Inert Gas?

  • Under a given set of conditions, an inert gas is a gas that does not undergo chemical reactions.
  • The noble gases (helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon, and radon) were previously known as "inert gases" due to their perceived lack of involvement in any biochemical processes.
  • Because inert gases are non-reactive, they do not affect equilibrium partial pressures and thus do not affect volume.
  • An inert gas does not react with the reactants or products; it does not change the concentration of the products and reactants. Furthermore, because the volume is constant, the concentrations are unaffected. As a result, this does not affect equilibrium.

The equilibrium position won't change if an inert gas is added. A volume change won't change the equilibrium position if the total moles of gas in the products and reactants are the same. When the volume is reduced, the process changes to create fewer moles of gas.
