Slide Number 5
Buffer Solutions |
A buffer solution,
is composed of a weak acid or weak base and its conjugate salt. Its pH changes very little when a small amount of acid or base is added to it. |
Slide Number 6
Henderson–Hasselbalch Equation pH = pKa+ log {[A-] / [HA]} |
Henderson–Hasselbalch equation is useful for estimating the pH of a buffer solution. |
