A rough & ready method involves memorising three numbers â 3, 5 and 8 â and the fact that 1 km in miles is approximately equal to the first of these numbers divided by the second, or alternatively the second divided by the third. That is: 1 km â 3/5 or 5/8 miles.
Ammonium chloride solutions with ammonia are used as buffer solutions. In paleontology, ammonium chloride vapor is deposited on fossils, where the substance forms a brilliant white, easily removed and fairly harmless and inert layer of tiny crystals.
Example: Calculate the pH of a buffer solution that initially consists of 0.0400 moles of ammonia and 0.0250 moles of ammonium ion, after 20.0 mL of 0.75 M NaOH has been added to the buffer. Ka for ammonium ion is 5.6 x 10 -10.op. Calculation of the pH of a Buffer Solution after Addition of a Small Amount of Strong Base. When a strong base (OH -) is added to a buffer solution, the hydroxide ions are consumed by the weak acid forming water and the weaker conjugate base of the acid.
