A 1M solution is made of each item in a pair. When would this combination create a buffer? Chose the pairs below that you could use to make a buffered solution. a. HCI/NaOH
b. HCOOH/ NaHCOO
c. HNO2/H2SO3
d. NaNO3/ HNO3

b. HCOOH/ NaHCOO.

Explanation:

A buffer system may be formed in one of two forms:

Chose the pairs below that you could use to make a buffered solution.

a. HCI/NaOH. NO. HCl is a strong acid and NaOH is a strong base.

b. HCOOH/ NaHCOO. YES. HCOOH is a weak acid and HCOO⁻ (coming from NaHCOO) is its conjugate base.

c. HNO₂/H₂SO₃. NO. Both are acids and they are unrelated to each other.

d. NaNO₃/ HNO₃. NO. HNO₃ is a strong acid.
