What two components make up a buffered solution?

Buffer solution is a type of solution which contains acid and at the same time a base material. The two components are a weak acid and a conjugate base or a weak base and its conjugate acid.


What best describes a bronsted lowry acid base reaction?

Acid + base conjugate base + conjugate acid


What is known as a buffer in science?

A Buffer Is a Solution Containing a weak Acid and its conjugate base Ex. HC2H3O2 acetic acid and its conjugate base the acetate Ion C2H3O2 with a minus 1 charge. Buffer solutions resist changes to pH Because as acid is added the conjugate base in the solution reacts with the acid to neutralize it. The same is true for weak bases and and their conjugate acid.


Is distilled water buffered?

No, distilled water is not a buffer. A buffer is an aqueous solution consisting of a mixture of a weak acid and its conjugate base or a weak base and its conjugate acid.


What is the conjugate base and conjugate acid for HSO4-?

The conjugate base and conjugate acid for HS04 is: Conjugate acid is H2SO4 Conjugate base is SO42


What is a congugate base?

The base which a certain acid turns into.Every acid had a conjugate base:HX (acid) X- (conjugate base)The acid is also called the base's conjugate acid.


Why does a solution of a conjugate acid base pair behave as a buffered solution?

The resist pH change in the following way: If you add a strong acid to the buffer solution, the conjugate base gets protonated, but the pH is not significantly changed. If you add a strong base to the buffer, the conjugate acid gets deprotonated, and again the pH is not changed very much. If you only had one component (let's say just the conjugate base), then it would not be able to resist change in pH if you added a strong base to the solution (although it would still counteract the affect of added acid).


What is the conjugate acid for base H2O?

Its conjugate acid is H3O+


What is the conjugate base for acid Iodine?

Assuming you are asking about the base I-, the conjugate acid is HI, hydroiodic acid. Since hydroiodic acid is a strong acid, it can be concluded that iodide (I-) is a weak conjugate base.


Is conjugated acid a strong acid?

No, a conjugate acid is simply a product of an acid-base reaction. Every base has a conjugate acid.


Explain how the relationship between the strengths of an acid and its conjugate base and of a base and its conjugated acid?

If acid is strong then its conjugate base must be weak, if conjugate base is strong it again accept the H+ ions so acid can neither be strong, similarly if base is strong its conjugate acid must be weak.


What are conjugate acids and conjugate bases?

They are the products of an acid-base reaction (by the Bronsted-Lowry definition). A conjugate base is what is left when an acid loses a proton (H+), for example the conjugate base of sulfuric acid (H2SO4) is the bisulfate ion (HSO4-). A conjugate acid is the product of a base gaining a proton, for example the conjugate acid of ammonia (NH3) is the ammonium ion (NH4+).
