Answer:
The most effective buffer at pH 9.25 will be a mixture of 1.0 M NH3 and 1.0 M NH4Cl
Explanation:
Step 1: Data given
pH of a buffer = pKa + log ([A-]/[Ha])
a mixture of 1.0 M HC2H3O2 and 1.0 M NaC2H3O2 (Ka for acetic acid = 1.8 x 10-5)
pH = -log( 1.8 * 10^-5) + log (1/1)
pH = -log( 1.8 * 10^-5)
pH = 4.74
a mixture of 1.0 M NaCN and 1.0 M KCN (Ka for HCN = 4.9 x 10-10)
pH = -log( 4.9 * 10^-10) + log (1/1)
pH = -log( 1.8 * 10^-5)
pH = 9.30
a mixture of 1.0 M HCl and 1.0 M NaCl
The solution made from NaCl and HCl will NOT act as a buffer.
HCl is a strong acid while NaCl is salt of strong acid and strong base which do not from buffer solutions hence due to HCl PH is less than 7.
a mixture of 1.0 M NH3 and 1.0 M NH4Cl (Kb for ammonia = 1.76 x 10^-5)
Ka * Kb = 1*10^-14
Ka = 10^-14 / 1.76*10^-5
Ka = 5.68*10^-10
pH = -log( 5.68*10^-10) + log (1/1)
pH = -log( 5.68*10^-10)
pH = 9.25
The most effective buffer at pH 9.25 will be a mixture of 1.0 M NH3 and 1.0 M NH4Cl
Answer:
Gram molecular mass = 40 + (35.5)2 = 111g
Mass of 
in 1 mole = 111g
Mass of in 0.15 mole = 111 × 0.15 = 16.65 g
