A buffer solution is prepared by adding NaC2H2O2 to a solution of HC2H2O2 (acetic acid). HC2H3O2(aq) = H+ (aq) + C2H302 - (aq) What happens if KCl is added

pH is not been modified. No changes.

Explanation:

Our buffer is made of acetic acid, a weak one and the salt from its conjugate base, sodium acetate.

NaC₂H₃O₂ → Na⁺   +  C₂H₃O₂⁻

The acetate anion can make hydrolisis in water to produce acetic acid again.

C₂H₃O₂⁻  + H₂O  ⇄  C₂H₃O₂H + OH⁻     Kb

KCl is neutral salt. When we dissociate it:

KCl → K⁺  +  Cl⁻

Both ions come from a strong base and a strong acid. They won't make hydrolisis in water because they are conjugate weak acid and base

K⁺ + H₂O ← KOH + H⁺

Cl⁻ + H₂O ← HCl + OH⁻

These reactions can't be possible.

That's why it doesn't occur anything in our buffer, this salt does not give OH⁻ or H⁺ to medium to modify pH

radioactive decay occurs in unstable atomic nuclei – that is, ones that don't have enough binding energy to hold

the nucleus together due to an excess of either protons or neutrons.
