Question:
Determine which set(s) correctly represents a buffer system. Explain your reasoning.
1. {eq}HF {/eq} and {eq}KF {/eq}
2. {eq}HCl {/eq} and {eq}NaOH {/eq}
3. {eq}HC_2H_3O_2 {/eq} and {eq}NaC_2H_3O_2 {/eq}
Different Types of Salts:
Salts are the product of a neutralization reaction when an acid and a base react. The other product is water. However, not all salts are the same, and not all of them are for human consumption. For example, sodium chloride is table salt and results from the neutralization reaction between sodium hydroxide and hydrochloric acids. But other salts, like the salts of heavy metals, are toxic and shouldn't be consumed.
