Answer:
Explanation:
According to Bronsted-Lowry acids or base theory , the reagent capable of giving hydrogen ion or proton will be acid and that which accepts hydrogen ion or proton will be base .
C₉H₇N + HNO₂ ⇄ C₉H₇NH⁺ + NO₂⁻
If K > 1 , reaction is proceeding from left to right .
Hence HNO₂ is giving H⁺ or proton and C₉H₇N is accepting proton to form
C₉H₇NH⁺ .
Hence HNO₂ is bronsted acid and C₉H₇N is bronsted base .
B )
when K < 1 , reaction above proceeds from right to left . That means
C₉H₇NH⁺ is giving H⁺ so it is a bronsted acid and NO₂⁻ is accepting H⁺ so it is a bronsted base .
Hence , NO₂⁻ is a bronsted base and C₉H₇NH⁺ is a bronsted acid .
I think it is the third one.
STP condition mean we have P=1 atm. T=273K. R=ideal gas constant, but make sure you use the one that has the same units of pressure, temperature that you are using. In this case R=0.0821 L*atm K^-1mol^1. You are provided with n=2.1 moles.

Input your values and solve.
In buffer solution there is an equilibrium between the acid HA and its conjugate base A⁻: HA(aq) ⇌ H⁺(aq) + A⁻(aq).
When acid (H⁺ ions) is added to the buffer solution, the equilibrium is shifted to the left, because conjugate base (A⁻) reacts with hydrogen cations from added acid, according to Le Chatelier's principle: H⁺(aq) + A⁻(aq) ⇄ HA(aq). So, the conjugate base (A⁻) consumes some hydrogen cations and pH is not decreasing (less H⁺ ions, higher pH of solution).
A buffer can be defined as a substance that prevents the pH of a solution from changing by either releasing or absorbing H⁺ in a solution.
Buffer is a solution that can resist pH change upon the addition of an acidic or basic components and it is able to neutralize small amounts of added acid or base, pH of the solution is relatively stable
