Chapter 25, Problem 13CYR
Summary Introduction
To review:
The effect of the addition of hydrogen ions on the pH of a buffered solution and the reason behind it.
Introduction:
The pH of a substance or a solution is the amount of hydrogen ion concentration. Buffer system resists any change in the pH of a solution by using the weak acid or weak base conjugate from which it is made. There are three main buffer systems of the body, namely the carbonic acid-bicarbonate ion, the phosphate buffer system, and the protein buffer system.
