Consider a solution consisting of the following two buffer systems: H2CO3
HCO3- + H+ pKa = 6.4
H2PO4-
HPO42- + H+ pKa = 7.2
At pH 6.4,which one of the following is true of the relative amounts of acid and conjugate base present?
A) [H2CO3] > [HCO3-] and [H2PO4-] > [HPO42-]
B) [H2CO3] = [HCO3-] and [H2PO4-] > [HPO42-]
C) [H2CO3] = [HCO3-] and [HPO42-] > [H2PO4-]
D) [HCO3-] > [H2CO3] and [HPO42-] > [H2PO4-]
E) [H2CO3] > [HCO3-] and [HPO42-] > [H2PO4-]
