Slide Number 1

Title Slide

Welcome to this spoken tutorial on Buffer Solutions.
Slide Number 2

Learning Objectives

In this tutorial we will learn,

to prepare 0.5 M Acetate buffer of pH 3.6 and

test the buffering action with small amounts of acid and base.

Slide Number 3

Pre-requisites

www.spoken-tutorial.org

To follow this tutorial you should be familiar with,

ChemCollective Vlabs interface.

If not, for relevant tutorials please visit our website.

Slide Number 4

System Requirement

Here I am using

Mac OS version 10.10.5

ChemCollective Vlabs version 2.1.0

Java version 8.0.

Point to the window. Here I have opened Virtual Chemistry Labs application window.
File >> Load homework >>Default lab setup dialog box.

Double-click on Acids and Bases folder.

Select Buffer Creation Problem.

Click on File menu, select Load homework option.

Default Lab setup dialog box opens.

Double-click on Acids and Bases folder.

Click on Buffer Creation Problem.

Point to the chemicals in Stockroom Explorer. The required chemicals for this experiment are provided in the Stockroom Explorer.

Let me demonstrate how to make Acetate buffer solution.

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.
