Learning Goal:To understand how buffers use reserves ofconjugate acid and conjugate base to counteractthe effects of acid or base addition on pH.A buffer is a mixture of a conjugate acid-base pairIn other words, it is a solution that contains a weakacid and its conjugate base, or a weak base and itsconjugate acid. For example, an acetic acid bufferconsists of acetic acid, CH₂COOH, and its iconjugate base, the acetate ion CH, COOBecause ions cannot simply be added to a solution,the conjugate base is added in a salt form (e.g..sodium acetate NaCH,COO)Buffers work because the conjugate acid-base pairwork together to neutralize the addition of HorOH ions. Thus, for example, it H ions areadded to the acetate buffer described above, theywill be largely removed from solution by thereaction of H with the conjugate base:H+CH₂COO-CH₂COOHSimilarly, any added OH ions will be neutralizedby a reaction with the conjugate acidOH+CH₂COOH-CH₂COO + H₂O.This butter system is described by the Henderson-Hasselbalch equationpH pK, +logMjugate baseconjugate acidPart AA beaker with 125 ml. of an acetic acid buffer with a pH of 5.000 is sitting on a benchtop.
