Learning Goal:

To understand how buffers use reserves of conjugate acid and conjugate base to counteract the effects of acid or base addition on pH.

A buffer is a mixture of a conjugate acid-base pair. In other words, it is a solution that contains a weak acid and its conjugate base, or a weak base and its conjugate acid. For example, an acetic acid buffer consists of acetic acid, CH3COOH, and its conjugate base, the acetate ion CH3COO-. Because ions cannot simply be added to a solution, the conjugate base is added in a salt form (e.g., sodium acetate NaCH3COO).

Buffers work because the conjugate acid-base pair work together to neutralize the addition of H+ or OH- ions. Thus, for example, if H+ ions are added to the acetate buffer described above, they will be largely removed from solution by the reaction of H+ with the conjugate base:

H++CH3COO--->CH3COOH

Similarly, any added OH? ions will be neutralized by a reaction with the conjugate acid:

OH-+CH3COOH --> CH3COO-+H2O

This buffer system is described by the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation

pH=pKa+log[conjugate base]/[conjugate acid]   

A beaker with 125mL of an acetic acid buffer with a pH of 5.000 is sitting on a benchtop. The total molarity of acid and conjugate base in this buffer is 0.100 M. A student adds 5.00mL of a 0.380M HCl solution to the beaker. How much will the pH change? The pKa of acetic acid is 4.760.

Express your answer numerically to two decimal places. Use a minus (-) sign if the pH has decreased.

A buffer solution is prepared by dissolving 1.50 g each of sodium benzoate, C6H5COONa, and benzoic acid, C6H5COOH (Ka = 6.45 × 10-5), in 150.0 mL of solution. The molar mass of benzoic acid is 122.12 g/mol and that of sodium benzoate is 144.10 g/mol.

a) What is the pH of this buffer solution?

b) Which buffer component must be added to change the pH to 4.00? What mass of that component is required?

c) What volume of 2.0 M NaOH or 2.0 M HCl must be added to the original buffer in part a to change the pH to 4.00?

The vapor pressure of solid benzene is 299 Pa at -30ºC and 3270 Pa at 0ºC. The vapor pressure of liquid benzene is 6170 Pa at 10ºC, and 15,800 Pa at 30ºC. (a) Calculate the triple point of benzene (temperature and pressure at which solid, liquid, and vapor all coexist). This is obtained by using the Clausius-Clapeyron equation first to determine ∆vapH for the solid and the liquid, and then to give equations for the curves defining the solid-vapor equilibrium and the liquidvapor equilibrium, and solving both the latter equations simultaneously. (b) Calculate the enthalpy of fusion at the triple point, ∆fusH = Hliq – Hsol.
