The correct Answer is:
To determine which solution is not a buffer solution, we need to first understand what a buffer solution is. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Definition of Buffer Solution**: A buffer solution is a solution that resists changes in pH when small amounts of an acid or base are added. It is typically composed of: - A weak acid and its salt (e.g., acetic acid and sodium acetate). - A weak base and its salt (e.g., ammonia and ammonium chloride). 2. **Characteristics of Buffer Solutions**: - They maintain a relatively stable pH. - They can neutralize small amounts of added acids or bases. 3. **Analyzing Given Solutions**: - We need to evaluate the options provided (though not listed in the question) to identify which solution does not meet the criteria of a buffer solution. 4. **Example Analysis**: - If we consider a solution made from one mole of sodium cyanide (NaCN) and hydrochloric acid (HCl): - NaCN is the salt of a weak acid (HCN) and can act as a base. - HCl is a strong acid. - Mixing NaCN with HCl does not create a buffer because HCl will completely dissociate and react with NaCN, leading to a significant change in pH. 5. **Conclusion**: Based on the analysis, the combination of NaCN and HCl does not form a buffer solution. Therefore, this is the solution that is not a buffer. ### Final Answer: The solution that is not a buffer solution is the one formed by combining sodium cyanide (NaCN) and hydrochloric acid (HCl). ---
