The following pictures represent so-lutions that contain a weak acid HA (pKa = 5.0) and its potassium
salt KA. Unshaded spheres represent H atoms and shaded spheres represent A- ions. (K+, H3O+, OH-,
and solvent H2O molecules have been omitted for clar-ity.)
Which of these solutions are buffers? - ANS-All are buffer solutions
The following pictures represent solutions at various points in the titration of a weak acid HA with
aqueous KOH. Unshaded spheres represent H atoms, black spheres represent oxygen atoms, and shaded
spheres represent A- ions. (K+, H3O+ initially present, OH- initially present and sol-vent water molecules
have been omitted for clarity).
Which picture represents the solution just before the equivalence point? - ANS-2
