Question
Chapter 8, Problem 47P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Two examples of a situation should be explained where you would want a buffer to have unequal amounts of the conjugate acid and the conjugate base.
Concept Introduction:
On addition of limited amount of an acid or base in a solution, if it does not change the pH, it is known as a buffer solution. For example: aqueous solution of weak acid and its conjugate base. This property of buffer to resist the pH is known as buffer action.
