  • question_answer
    The buffer capacity of an \[HCl\] solution with \[pH=1\]and \[pH=2\] are, respectively,

    A) \[0.23\]and \[0.023\] 

    B)       \[0.46\]and \[0.046\]

    C) \[2.3\] and \[0.23\]    

    D)       \[4.6\] and \[0.46\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    [a] (i) Buffer capacity \[(\beta )=2.303\,\left[ [{{H}^{\oplus }}]+[O{{H}^{\Theta }}] \right]\] \[=2.303({{10}^{-1}}+{{10}^{-13}})\] \[=0.23\] (ii) Buffer capacity \[(\beta )\] for \[HCl\]with \[pH=2\] \[=2.303({{10}^{-2}}+{{10}^{-12}})\] \[=0.023.\]
