Answer : The pH of a 0.1 M phosphate buffer is, 6.86

Explanation : Given,

pK_a=6.86

Concentration of acid = 0.1 M

Concentration of conjugate base (salt) = 0.1 M

Now we have to calculate the pH of buffer.

Using Henderson Hesselbach equation :

pH=pK_a+\log \frac{[Salt]}{[Acid]}

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get:

pH=6.86+\log (\frac{0.1}{0.1})

pH=6.86

Therefore, the pH of a 0.1 M phosphate buffer is, 6.86

olga nikolaevna [1]

Solid, Liquid, and Gas

Solid is the state in which matter maintains a fixed volume and shape; liquid is the state in which matter adapts to the shape of its container but varies only slightly in volume; and gas is the state in which matter expands to occupy the volume and shape of its container.

How many Hydrogen atoms are in 4HN₃?
Kazeer [188]
4 Hydrogen Atoms should be correct. Because the 4 infront of it signifies the amount of hydrogen. It would also be 4 hydrogen atoms if it were written as H4N3, because the 4 is still around the H (as long as the 4 is under scored)
