Practice problem
If HClHClHCl and NaOHNaOHNaOH are both added to water, is a buffer solution formed?
Yes, an acid and base are both present so this is a buffer.
Yes, this a weak acid and a weak base so they will form a buffer.
No, this is a strong acid and a strong base, they cannot form a buffer.
No, they are not a conjugate pair, and thus will not form a buffer.
Type a concept, like “slope” or “photosynthesis”.
