Which of the following combinations, when mixed in equal concentrations in water, would result in a buffer solution?  

If a reaction has a  ΔG = 0, this indicates that:

A 0.085 M solution of acetic acid (CH3COOH)  has a pH of 2.55. What is the percent ionization of this solution?

Consider the reaction of elemental bromine with elemental chlorine to make a bromochloride compound at 600 K:                                        2 BrCl(g)   ⇌   Br2(g)  +  Cl2(g)         KP = 81.0 A closed vessel at 600 K is charged with 3.00 atm of BrCl initially and allowed to reach equilibrium. What is the partial pressure of the Br2 (in atm) at that equilibrium?

A 0.15 M solution of acetic acid (CH3COOH)  has a pH of 2.38. What is the percent ionization of this solution?
