Question
Chapter 17.2, Problem 1PE
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Buffer systems have to be identified.
Concept introduction:
Buffer Solutions:
Buffers are solutions that resist change in pH on dilution or on the addition of small amounts of acids or alkali.
Buffer solution must have weak acid and its salt (weak congucate base) or weak base and it salt (weak congucate acid)
