1. Kb of NH3 = 1.8 * 10-5 .
pKb of NH3 = -log(Kb) = - log (1.8 * 10-5) = 4.74
pKa + pKb = 14
So pKa = 14 - 4.74 = 9.26
A buffer works best within a pH range of + or - pKa.
So ammonia buffer works best in pH = 9.
2. Gas molecules always have a higher entropy than solids or gases as they are more disordered. We can see the reaction proceeds from a gaseous state to a solid state. Thus there is decrease in disorderliness of the system. So delta S for this reaction will be negative.

Lab 5 Buffers 1. Dissolved ions in salt solutions can act as acids or bases and react with water to produce hydronium ions or hydroxide ions that contribute to the pH of the salt solution. Since strong acids and strong bases completely ionize in solution, the reverse reaction essentially does not occur, meaning that the resulting conjugate base of a strong acid or conjugate acid of a strong base do NOT act as acids or bases. Ions that are conjugate...

To understand how buffers use reserves of conjugate acid and conjugate base to counteract the effects of acid or base addition on pH. A buffer is a mixture of a conjugate acid-base pair. In other words, it is a solution that contains a weak acid and its conjugate base, or a weak base and its conjugate acid. For example, an acetic acid buffer consists of acetic acid, CH3COOH, and its conjugate base, the acetate ion CH3COO−. Because ions cannot simply...
Buffers are solutions designed to resist changes in pH from the addition of small amounts of acids or bases
Buffers are solutions designed to resist changes in pH from the addition of small amounts of acids or bases. Buffers are comprised of a solution of a weak acid with its conjugate base. When an outside base is added to the buffer, the weak acid in the buffer neutralizes the hydroxide ion of the base, thus retarding its ability to raise the solution's pH. When an outside acid is added to the buffer, the conjugate base of the buffer neutralizes...
