Question

Three buffers are made by combining a 1M solution of acetic acid and a 1M solution of sodium acetate in the ratios shown in the table below. Which of these statements is true regarding the prepared buffers? (Ka= 1.7x10-5)



 

   

pH of buffer 1 < pH of buffer 2 < pH of buffer 3

   

pH of buffer 1 = pH of buffer 2 = pH of buffer 3

   

pH of buffer 1 > pH of buffer 2 > pH of buffer 3

   

pH of buffer 1 = pH of buffer 2 > pH of buffer 3

   

pH of buffer 1 > pH of buffer 2 = pH of buffer 3
