Assertion : Mixture of CH(3)COOH and CH(...

Assertion : Mixture of `CH_(3)COOH` and `CH_(3)COONH_(4)` is an example of acidic buffer.
Reason : Acidic buffer contains equimolar mixture of weak acid and its salt with weak base.

A

If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion

B

If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion

C

If assertion is true but reasonb is false

D

If both assertion and reason are false.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
`CH_(3)COOH//CH_(3)COONH_(4)` is not an example of acidic buffer. Acidic buffer contains equimolar mixture of weak acid and its salt with strong base. e.g. `CH_(3)COOH//CH_(3)COONa`.

Assertion : CH_3COOH and CH_3COO^- are acid-base pairs. Reason : These differ by H^+

The solution which consumes [H^(+)] or [OH^(-)] or both simultaneously from externally added base in order to give negligible change in pH , is known as buffer solution. In general, the solution resists the change in pH. Buffer solution does not mean that there does not occur a pH change in pH. Buffer solution des not mean that there does not occur a pH change at all. It implies the pH change occurs but in neglibible amount. There are two types of buffer (i) Acidic buffer: it is a mixture of weak acid and its salt acid strong base. (ii) Basic buffer : It is a mixture of weak base and its salt with strong acid. pH of 0.01 M (NH_(4))_(2)SO_(4) and 0.02 M NH_(4)OH buffer ( pK_(a) of NH_(4^(+)) = 9.26) is
