Answer:

option D is correct

D. This solution is a good buffer.

Explanation:

TRIS (HOCH[tex]_{2}[/tex])[tex]_{3}[/tex]CNH[tex]_{2}[/tex]

if TRIS is react with HCL it will form salt

(HOCH[tex]_{2}[/tex])[tex]_{3}[/tex]CNH[tex]_{2}[/tex] + HCL ⇆ (HOCH[tex]_{2}[/tex])[tex]_{3}[/tex]NH[tex]_{3}[/tex]CL

Let the reference volume is 100

Mole of TRIS is = 100 × 0.2 = 20

Mole of HCL is = 100 × 0.1 = 10

In the reaction all of the HCL will Consumed,10 moles of the salt will form

and 10 mole of TRIS will left

hence , Final product will be salt +TRIS(9 base)

H = Pk[tex]_{a}[/tex] + log (base/ acid)

8.3 + log(10/10)

8.3
