	Buffer solution - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Buffer solutions are solutions which resist change in hydronium ion and the hydroxide ion concentration (and consequent pH) upon addition of small amounts of acid or base, or upon dilution.
		Buffer solutions consist of a weak acid and its conjugate base (more common) or a weak base and its conjugate acid (less common).
		Industrially, buffer solutions are used in fermentation processes and in setting the correct conditions for dyes used in colouring fabrics.

		Many buffers are prepared by combining a weak acid and its conjugate (acetic acid and sodium acetate) or a weak base and its conjugate (ammonia and ammonium chloride).
		This limit is called the buffer capacity and is defined as the moles of acid or base necessary to change the pH of one liter of solution by one unit.
		Buffer Capacity = (number of moles of OH- or H3O+ added) (pH change)(volume of buffer in L) In this experiment, the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation will be used to determine the amount of acetic acid and sodium acetate required to prepare a series of buffer solutions.

	Buffer Solutions
		If any acid should be added to a buffer solution, the basic component would react with it; if any base should be added to a buffer solution, the acidic component would react with it.
		In the buffer solution, the principal contribution to the [A
		In this form the equation may also be used for buffer solutions containing a weak base and its salt, where the salt is the acidic component.

	Buffers
		A buffer solution is one in which the pH of the solution is "resistant" to small additions of either a strong acid or strong base.
		Buffers usually consist of a weak acid and its conjugate base, in relatively equal and "large" quantities.
		Example: A buffer solution was made by dissolving 10.0 grams of sodium acetate in 200.0 mL of 1.00 M acetic acid.

		It is difficult to exaggerate the importance of buffer and maintenance solutions.
		In many labs, buffer solutions are often prepared from capsules, tablets and chemical powders presuming that they are more accurate and less expensive when "freshly" made.
		At Hanna, buffers are prepared with analytical grade chemicals under the stringent ISO 9002 regulations in a clean laboratory environment and using high-tech reference material.

		Their resistance to changes in pH makes buffer solutions very useful for chemical manufacturing such as fermentation processes, and for setting the correct conditions for the dyes used in coloring fabrics.
		A buffer of carbonic acid (H2CO3) and bicarbonate (HCO3-) is present in blood plasma, to maintain a pH between 7.35 and 7.45.

		A buffer is a solution that resists change in pH when either acid or base are added into it, within limits.
		To accomplish this feat, buffers depend on the presence of both a weak acid and its conjugate base.
		The pH of a buffer is determined in the same manner that the pH of a weak acid is determined - by counting the number of hydronium and hydroxide ions and calculating their ratio with total number of ions and molecules in the solution.

	JCE 1997 (74) 937 [Aug] Buffer Index and Buffer Capacity for a Simple Buffer Solution
		Many papers that present the buffering effect of the simple buffer solution consider the notion of buffer index and buffer capacity as being equivalent.
		The buffer capacity is numerically expressed to be equal with the minimum concentration of strong acid or strong base which causes the variation of buffer's pH with one unit.
		The field of application of both notions is different: the buffer capacity is used in the quantitative chemical analysis and the buffer index in studying biological systems.

		The pH of a buffer after addition of a strong base requires consideration of the stoichiometry of the reaction (conversion of weak acid to weak base) and the equilibrium in the same manner as for the addition of a strong acid.
		The properties and concentration of one of the solutions are known(titrant) and are used to determine the properties and/or concentration of the other solution.
		The solutions in a and b of the previous exercise are buffers.

	Buffer Solutions
		A buffer is a solution that maintains nearly constant pH when hydroxide or hydronium ions are added to the solution.
		A buffer solution typically consists of a conjugated acid/base pair.
		When a small amount of strong acid is added to the buffer solution, it will react with the conjugated base (CH COO-), and the equilibrium will shift to the left, increasing concentration of CH Consequently, the pH of the buffer solution will decrease, but only slightly.

	Mehlich-Buffer Acidity
		The Mehlich buffer method for determining exchangeable acidity (Ac) was developed under the premise that an increase or decrease in exchangeable acidity can be quantified by measuring the corresponding increase or decrease in the pH of a buffered reagent.
		The buffer reagent should also have a capacity that is not influenced by the soil yet is sensitive enough to measure low acidity values common in soils with a low cation exchange capacity (CEC), that is, with values less than 5.0 meq/100 cm
		Use the standard acid to check the final concentration of the buffer mixture as follows: combine 10 mL of buffer, 10 mL of distilled water and 10 mL of the prepared standard acid.

		A buffer solution consists of a mixture of a weak acid and its conjugate base or a weak base and its conjugate acid at predetermined concentrations or ratios.
		However, the buffer capacity of the system, the amount of acid or base that can be added without causing a large change in pH, would be decreased.
