Answer:
The correct answer is: d. The pKa of the chosen buffer should be close to the optimal pH for the biochemical reaction.
Explanation:
The buffer resist or maintain the change in pH in case of Acid or basic addition to the solution. The buffer capacity should be within one or two pH units when compared to the optimal pH.
Thus it is important to select a buffer with pKa close to the optimum pH of the reaction because the ability for the buffer to maintain the pH is is great at the pH close to pKa.

Answer:
1.84 L
Explanation:
Using the equation for reversible work:
Where:
W is the work done (J) = -287 J.
Since the gas did work, therefore W is negative.
P is the pressure in atm = 1.90 atm.
However, work done is in joules and pressure is in atm. We can use the values of universal gas constant as a convenient conversion unit. R = 8.314 J/(mol*K); R = 0.0821 (L*atm)/(mol*K)
Therefore, the conversion unit is 0.0821/8.314 = 0.00987 (L*atm)/J
is the initial volume = 0.350 L
is the final volume = ?
Thus:
(-287 J)*0.00987 (L*atm)/J = -1.9 atm*( - 0.350) L
= [(287*0.00987)+(1.9*0.350)]/1.9 = (2.833+0.665)/1.9 =1.84 L
