Although I may not be the smartest, I can definitely answer.
This represents a chemical change because the substances' chemical identities were altered. The fizzing was a clear sign, and the temperature increase was another indicator of the reaction.
The correct equation is (C) H3O+(aq) + C2H3O2−(aq) -> HC2H3O2(aq) + H2O(l). A buffer system is composed of a weak acid and its corresponding salt, effectively stabilizing the pH levels within a solution. The buffer works by adjusting the concentrations of the conjugate acid and base, maintaining the pH constant.
