Which will make a basic buffer?
mL of M NaOH mL of M CH
mL of M CH mL of M NaOH
mL of M HCl mL of M NH
mL of M HCl mL of M NaOH
To determine which combination will make a basic buffer, we need to understand the concept of a buffer solution.A basic buffer is typically made by mixing a weak base with its conjugate acid.In this case, the weak base is NHOH (ammonium hydroxide), and its conjugate acid is NH (from NHCl).Let's analyze each option:Option 1: mL of M NaOH mL of M CHCOOH• This is a strong base (NaOH) with a weak acid (acetic acid). It will not form a buffer.Option 2: mL of M CHCOOH mL of M NaOH• This is a neutralization reaction between a weak acid and a strong base, resulting in a salt and water. No buffer is formed.Option 3: mL of M HCl mL of M NHOH• Here, we have a weak base (NHOH) and its conjugate acid (NH from the reaction with HCl). This will form a basic buffer.Option 4: mL of M HCl mL of M NaOH• This is a neutralization reaction between a strong acid and a strong base, resulting in water and salt. No buffer is formed.Therefore, the correct option is Option 3, which forms a basic buffer.
