Answer:
option b is the correct answer
Answer:
- <em>(B.) The pH of a buffer solution is determined by the ratio of the concentration of conjugate base to the concentration of strong acid.</em>
- <em>(C.) A buffer is generally made up of a weak acid and its conjugate base. </em>
- <em>(D.) The pH of a buffer solution does not change significantly when any amount of a strong acid is added.</em>
Explanation:
A buffer is solution which resists change in pH upon addition of either acids or bases.
The pH of a buffer is calculated by the ratio of the concentration of base to concentration of acid. The weak acid and conjugate base have a Ka similar to the pH desired.
To find moles in this sample, you would divide grams by molar mass of ethyl alcohol
(18.0g)/(46.07g/mol) = 0.391mol C2H6O
