Sodium hydrogen carbonate (NaHCO3), also known as sodium bicarbonate or "baking soda", can be used to relieve acid indigestion. Acid indigestion is the burning sensation you get in your stomach when it contains too much hydrochloric acid (HCI), which the stomach secretes to help digest food. Drinking a glass of water containing dissolved NaHCO3 neutralizes excess HCl through this reaction: HCl(aq) + NaHCO3(aq) NaCl(aq) + H₂O(1) + CO₂(g) The CO₂ gas produced is what makes you burp after drinking the solution. olo Suppose the fluid in the stomach of a man suffering from indigestion can be considered to be 200. mL of a 0.067 M HCI solution. What mass of NaHCO3 would he need to ingest to neutralize this much HCl ? Round your answer to 2 significant digits. g -> x10 X E

Consider a solution prepared by mixing a weak acid HA. HCl, and NaA. Which of the following statements best describes what happens? a. The H+ from the HCl reacts completely with the A from the NaA. Then the HA dissociates somewhat. b. The H+ from the HCl reacts somewhat with the A from the NaA to make HA, while the HA is dissociating. Eventually you have equal amounts of everything. c. The H+ from the HCl reacts somewhat with the A from the NaA to make HA while the HA is dissociating. Eventually all the reactions have equal rates. d. The H+ from the HCl reacts completely with the A from the NaA. Then the HA dissociates somewhat until too much H+ and A are formed, so the H+ and A react to form HA, and so on. Eventually equilibrium is reached. Justify your choice, and for choices you did not pick, explain what is wrong with them.

A friend asks the following: Consider a buffered solution made up of the weak acid HA and its salt NaA. If a strong base like NaOH is added, the HA reacts with the OH to form A. Thus the amount of acid (HA) is decreased, and the amount of base (A) is increased. Analogously, adding HCI to the buffered solution forms more of the acid (HA) by reacting with the base (A). Thus how can we claim that a buffered solution resists changes in the pH of the solution? How would you explain buffering to this friend?
