A1.0l buffer solution contains 0.100 mol of hc2h3o2 and 0.100 mol of nac2h3o2. the value of ka for hc2h3o2 is 1.8×10−5. part a calculate the ph of the solution upon the addition of 0.015 mol of naoh to the original buffer. express the ph to two decimal places.

You encounter a solution that is acidic and you decide to test it by adding a small amount of a strong acid. the ph lowers slightly but is approximately unchanged, and still remains acidic. what can you say about the solution? a. it is a buffer solution. b. it is not a buffer solution it is a strong acid solution. d. the solution has been neutralized. e. the solution has excess acid present
