Buffer solutions have constant acidity and alkalinity because

  • these give unionised acid or base on reaction with added acid or alkali

  • acids and alkalies in these solutions are shielded from attack by other ions.

  • they have a large excess of H+ or OH- ions

  • they have a large excess of H+ or OH- ions


A.

these give unionised acid or base on reaction with added acid or alkali

If a small amount of an acid or alkali is added to a buffer solution, it converts them into unionised acid or base. Thus, remains unaffected or in other words its acidity/alkalinity remains constant. e.g.,

H3O+ + A-  ⇌ H2O +HA

-OH +HA → H2O +A-
If acid is added, it reacts with A- to form undissociated HA. Similarly, if base/alkali is added, O H- combines with HA to give H2O and A- and thus, maintains the acidity/alkalinity of buffer solution.

pH of a saturated solution of Ba(OH)2 is 12. The value of solubility product Ksp of Ba(OH)2 is

  • 3.3 x 10-7

  • 5.0 x 10-7

  • 4.0 x 10-6

  • 4.0 x 10-6


B.

5.0 x 10-7

Given, pH of Ba(OH)2 = 12
pOH = 14-pH
= 14-12 = 2
We know that,
pOH = -log [OH-]
2 =-log [OH-]
[OH-] = antilog (-2)
[OH-] = 1 x 10-2

Ba(OH)2dissolves in water as

  • 3.6 x 10-3

  • 6.0 x 10-2

  • 6.0 x 10-2


C.

6.0 x 10-2

Equimolar solutions of the following substances were prepared separately, which one of these will record the highest pH value?

  • BaCl2

  • AlCl3

  • LiCl

  • LiCl


A.

BaCl2

BaCl2 is a salt of strong acid HCl and strong base Ba(OH)2. So, its aqueous solution is neutral with pH 7. All other salts give acidic solution due to cationic hydrolysis, so their pH is less than 7. Thus, pH value is highest for the solution of BaCl2.
