The pH of an acidic buffer mixture is

Question

The pH of an acidic buffer mixture is (A) 6.8 (B) 7 (C) 7.5 (D) depends upon Ka of the acid

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

The pH of acidic buffers is calculated by following formula pH=- log Ka+ log [ ( textsalt/ textacid) ] ∴ pH of acidic buffer depends on value of Ka and is always less than 7

depends upon $K_{a}$ of the acid

The pH of acidic buffers is calculated by following formula
$p H = - lo g K_{a} + lo g [\frac{salt}{acid}]$
$∴$ pH of acidic buffer depends on value of $K_{a}$ and is always less than 7

depends upon Ka​ of the acid

The pH of acidic buffers is calculated by following formula pH=−logKa​+log[acidsalt​] ∴ pH of acidic buffer depends on value of Ka​ and is always less than 7
