Chapter 18: Additional Aspects of Acid-Base Equilibria
Explorer Quiz



1.  

Solid sodium nitrite is added to a solution that is 0.10 M HNO2. Which of the following best describes what occurs?



2.  

Which of the following constitutes a buffer solution?



3.  

A 100-mL sample of a buffer is 0.10 M NH3 and 0.10 M NH4Cl. If 100 mL of water is added to this solution, what occurs?



4.  

Which of the following equations is correct?



5.  

Why is an indicator different colors at different pH's?



6.  

If the following acids are titrated with 0.10 M NaOH, which will have the largest near-vertical "jump" in its titration curve?



7.  

What is the pH after 10 mL of 0.10 M HCl(aq) is added to 14 mL of 0.10 M NaOH(aq)?



8.  

When 1 x 10-8 mol of HCl is added to 1.0 liter of water, the hydronium-ion concentration from HCl is 10-8 M. This seems to indicate that the pH of the solution would be 8. This would indicate a basic solution was prepared by adding a strong acid to water. What factor have we overlooked?



9.  

Which one of the following would not be a good buffer pair?



10.  

A 7.500-g sample of a monoprotic weak acid, HA, is added to enough distilled water to produce 500.0 mL of a solution with pH = 2.716. The solution is then titrated with NaOH solution. At the point where the acid is half titrated, i.e., [HA] = [A-], the pH = 4.602. What is the molar mass of this acid?

Note: answer choices in this exercise are randomized.
