Many chemical reactions are carried out in the presence of buffers. Use the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation to provide a recommendation for a suitable acete/acetic acid buffer under the following reaction conditions. a) If a checial reaction produces hydroxide ion, OH-, what would be the range for the target pH of a buffer soution that would favor pH stabilizatoin under these conditions? Explain.

Standard solution : 0.201 grams of acetylsalicylic acid was combined with 10 mL of 0.5 M NaOH, then transfered to a 100 mL flask and filled the rest of the way with water Then 0.500 mLs of the standard solution was transfered to a 10.00 mL flask and diluted to the 10 mL mark with 0.02 M of buffered iron chloride. Number of moles of NaOH = 0.005 moles Since the reaction between acetylsalicylic acid and NaOH is a 1:1 reaction, the number of moles of acetylsalicylic acid used in the reaction is also 0.005 moles. the concentration from analysis question 5: acetylsalicylic acid in the 100.00 mL volumetric flask is 0.050 M. From your plot, what is the value of εb? From the Beer- Lambert law For the aspirin sample, calculate the concentration of acetylsalicylic acid present using the value of εb that you found The concentration from analysis question 5 represents the concentration in the 10.00 mL sample that was prepared in the volumetric flask using an aliquot of the solution in the…

A. What two compounds would be best to use in preparing a pH 9.0 buffer solution? justify your answer. Assume you have the acids and the sodium salts of their conjugate bases available to you. Answer: The two compounds best fo preparing a buffer solution with a pH of 9.0 would be hydrocyanic (HCN) and phenol (HOc6H5) because their pKa values are 9.40 and 9.80 respectively making their pH levels the closest to 9.
