What is the buffer capacity if 3 moles are added in 5 litres of the solution to change the pH by 2 units?(a) 0.2(b) 0.5(c) 0.15(d) 0.3I got this question during an online exam.My question is from Equilibrium in chapter Equilibrium of Chemistry – Class 11

Answer»

Correct option is (d) 0.3

For explanation: Buffer CAPACITY is defined as the number of moles of acid or BASE added in ONE litre of the solution to change the pH by Unity. Therefore here buffer capacity = 3/5 DIVIDED by 2 = 0.6/2 = 0.3. The buffer capacity is given as 0.3.
