For preparing a buffer solution of `pH 6` by mixing sodium accetate and acetic, the ratio of the concentration of salt and acid should be `(K_(a)=10^(-5))`A. `1:10`B. `10:1`C. `100 :1`D. `1:100` |
Answer» Correct Answer - B `pH=pK_(a)+log. (["Salt"])/(["base"])` `pK_(a)=-log K_(a)=-log10^(-5)= +5` `log.(["Salt"])/(["base"])=pH -pK_(a)=6-5=1` `(["Salt"])/(["base"])=` antilog `(1)=10` Thus [salt]`:`[base]`10:1` |
