A buffer solution contains an equivalent amount of acid and base. The pH of the solution with an acid dissociation constant (pKa) value of 3.75 is 3.82.
<h3>What is pH?</h3>
The amount of hydrogen or the proton ion in the solution is expressed by the pH. It is given by the sum of pKa and the log of the concentration of acid and bases.
Given,
Concentration of salt [HCOO⁻] = 0.24 M
Concentration of acid [HCOOH] = 0.20 M
The acid dissociation constant (pKa) = 3.75
pH is calculated from the Hendersons equation as,
pH = pKa + log [salt] ÷ [acid]
pH = 3.75 + log [0.24] ÷ [0.20]
= 3.75 + log (1.2)
= 3.75 + 0.079
= 3.82
Therefore, 3.82 is the pH of the buffer.

Sodium is a member of the alkali metal family with potassium (K) and Lithium (LI) sodium's big claim to fame is that it's one or two elements in your table salt. when bonded to chlorine (CI) THE two elements make sodium chloride
Answer:
volume of the container will decreases if pressure increases.
Explanation:
According to Boyle's law:
Pressure is inversely proportional to volume which means if pressure of a gas increases the volume of the gas will decreases as gas molecules will collide and come closer forcefully so volume will decreases. And its formula for determining volume and pressure is:
<em>PV=nRT</em>
where "R" is a ideal gas constant
"T" is temperature and
"n" is number of particles given in moles while "V" is volume and "P" is pressure.
B, they belong to group 1
A: Li is period 2 and Na is period 3
C: Na has one more electron shell
D: Not related to how it is spelled
