Yes, the mixture of acetic acid (CH3COOH) and sodium acetate (CH3COONa) acts as a buffer solution. This is because acetic acid is a weak acid, and sodium acetate provides its conjugate base (acetate ion, CH3COO−). Together, they can resist changes in pH when small amounts of strong acids or bases are added, maintaining a relatively stable pH in the solution.

Dissolving in water = splitting in ionsCH3COONH4 --> CH3COO- + NH4+CH3COO-, acetate is a weak base: CH3COO- + H2O CH3COOH + OH-NH4+, ammonium is a weak acid: NH4+ + H2O NH3 + H3O+Totally in water: CH3COO- + NH4+ CH3COOH + NH3 and 2H2O H3O+ + OH-
CH3COONa, or sodium acetate, is commonly used as a buffer in biochemical applications. Its primary indicators are pH levels, as it can help maintain a stable pH in solutions due to its weak acid (acetic acid) and its conjugate base (sodium ion). Additionally, it can be monitored through conductivity measurements since it dissociates into ions in solution. In some contexts, colorimetric indicators can be used to detect changes in pH when mixed with CH3COONa solutions.
Yes, NaC2H3O2 and HC2H3O2 is a buffer system when dissolved in water. Sodium acetate (NaC2H3O2) acts as a base, while acetic acid (HC2H3O2) acts as an acid. This buffer system can help maintain the pH of the solution when small amounts of acid or base are added.

Buffers are made out of what are called weak acids or weak bases. Mixtures of CH3COOH and CH3COONa can act as buffers because they don't break apart completely in solution like HCl and NaCl. As the CH3COOH and CH3COONa are in solution they keep the pH constant by either donating or accepting protons because they don't act like strong acids or bases. HCl is known as a strong acid where the hydrogen disassociates completely from the chloride. NaCl is not a buffer because it dissolves completely as welll
ch3coona+FECL2
The reaction between aqueous acetic acid (CH3COOH) and aqueous sodium hydroxide (NaOH) forms water (H2O) and sodium acetate (CH3COONa). The balanced chemical equation is: CH3COOH + NaOH -> H2O + CH3COONa
The balanced equation for the reaction between acetic acid (CH3COOH) and sodium hydrogen carbonate (NaHCO3) is: CH3COOH + NaHCO3 -> CH3COONa + H2O + CO2 This reaction produces sodium acetate (CH3COONa), water (H2O), and carbon dioxide (CO2).
The complete molecular equation for the reaction between acetic acid (CH3COOH) and sodium hydroxide (NaOH) is: CH3COOH (aq) + NaOH (aq) -> CH3COONa (aq) + H2O (l)
Hcl is a strong acid. NaCl is formed by the reaction of Hcl and any base .But NaCl is not a covalent compound and it exists as Na+ and Cl-.Na+and OH- cannot react with EachOther in Aqueous solutions as as the are formed in aqueous solutions and they behave like ions . hence neither H+ nor OH- is consumed by this mixture whereas acetic acid and acetate ions can consume small amt of these ions.Hence the mix. act as buffer
the products are CH3COOH + NaOH ------CH3COONa + H2O
The reaction between sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and acetic acid (CH3COOH) forms sodium acetate (CH3COONa) and water (H2O). The balanced chemical equation is: CH3COOH + NaOH -> CH3COONa + H2O.
There is no reaction between these two substances because an exchange of positive ions wouldn't result in higher product stability. Make sure your not confusing acetic with ascetic.
CH3COOH + NaOH -----> CH3COONa + H2O(Ethanoic acid) (Sodium hydroxide) (Sodium Acetate) (Water)
