**Base/Acid Ratios in Buffers**In buffer chemistry, understanding the relationship between base and acid concentrations is crucial. Here's an overview of the key concepts and an interactive exercise to reinforce them.**Henderson-Hasselbalch Equation**- **pH Calculation:** Just as pH is the negative logarithm of [H₃O⁺], pKₐ is the negative logarithm of Kₐ. \[ pK_a = -\log K_a \] The Henderson-Hasselbalch equation is used to calculate the pH of buffer solutions: \[ \text{pH} = pK_a + \log \left(\frac{\text{[base]}}{\text{[acid]}}\right) \] Notice that the pH of a buffer is close to the pKₐ of the acid, differing only by the logarithm of the concentration ratio [base]/[acid].- **pOH Calculation:** The Henderson-Hasselbalch equation in terms of pOH and pK_b is similar: \[ \text{pOH} = pK_b + \log \left(\frac{\text{[acid]}}{\text{[base]}}\right) \]**Interactive Exercise: Part A**Given:- Acetic acid with a \(K_a\) of \(1.8 \times 10^{-5}\).- Three buffer solutions (A, B, C) with varying concentrations: A. [acetic acid] ten times greater than [acetate]. B. [acetate] ten times greater than [acetic acid]. C. [acetate] = [acetic acid].**Task:**Match each buffer to the expected pH. Drag the appropriate items to their respective bins.- **Bins:** - pH = 3.74 - pH = 4.74 - pH = 5.74Use this interactive module to solidify your understanding of buffer solutions and pH calculations.
