Q

Define a buffer

A

Solution which contains a weak acid and its conjugate bade pair

17
Q

What happens if you add hydrogen ion to body buffer solution?

A

[H+] will increase and react with HCO3 to form H2CO3 no change in PH

18
Q

What happens if you add OH to body buffer solution?

A

OH will react with H+ to form water the concentration of H+ decreases

H2CO3 + H > HCO3

Maintaining PH

19
Q

Name some properties of methyl orange

A

Red to orange at 3.2 to 4.4 PH

20
Q

Name some properties of phenolphthalein

A

Colourless to purple at 8.2 to 10.0 PH

21
Q

What indicator can you use for a strong acid/strong base?

A

Phenolphthalein and methyl orange

22
Q

What indicator will you use with a strong acid/weak base?

A

Methyl orange

23
Q

What indicator will you use for a weak acid/strong base?

A

Phenolphthalein

24
Q

What is the end point of the reaction?

A

When [HA] turns into A-

25
Q

What is the equivalence point?

A

When the colour change occurs

26
Q

What will happen to an indicator if you add OH- ?

A

H+ decreases
HA decreases to replace H+
A- will increase and go yellow

27
Q

What will happen to an indicator if you add H+ ?

A

H+ will increase
H+ + A- > HA
So HA increases so red appears
