A buffer solution is prepared by mixing equal concentrations of HClO(aq) and KClO(aq). A small amount of hydronium ion is added to the mixture. Write the chemical equation that illustrates how the buffer system removes the hydronium ion. Include the states in the reaction.
How it removes hydronium ion is as follows:
KClO(aq) => K+(aq) + ClO-(aq)
ClO-(aq) + H3O+(aq) => HClO(aq) + H2O(l)
NOTE: the HClO(aq) produced upon addition of H3O+ is a WEAK acid and will not ionize much, thus essentially removing the H3O+.
