Question
A study of vaccines suggest that a higher pH, preferably near 7, is necessary for the faster formation of the antibodies. Because of this, a chemist proposed using a citric acid buffer. They were tasked to prepare a 500.0 mL, 0.25 M pH 5.00 buffer from 1.20M citric acid (H3C6H5O7; pKa1 = 3.13, pKa2 = 4.76, pKa3 = 6.40) and 0.90 M NaOH. Note: When adding a strong acid/base to a weak base/acid, the strong acid/base is fully consumed.
- What is the acid component and base component of the buffer solution?
- What are the moles of each component in the buffer solution?
- Calculate the amounts of reagents needed to prepare the buffer solution.
- What will be the pH of the buffer upon addition of 0.75 mL 2.00 M HNO3? (1 pt) e. What will be the pH of the buffer upon addition of 2.30 mL of 1.75 M NaOH?
