3) One of the main buffer systems found in living organisms is the phosphate buffer
system, often used in biological research to mimic cellular conditions. The
phosphate equilibrium reactions and their corresponding pKa's are as follows:
H3PO4 = H* + H2PO,
H2PO, = H+ + HPO?-
HPO- = H+ + PO;-
pKa1
pКаz —D 7.21
= 12.44
= 2.12

(a) Given the above chemical reaction, write out the expression for K, of the buffer
system which would predominate at neutral pH conditions. Justify your choice.
(b) The human body, and many other lifeforms, prefer an internal pH of 7.2 to
maintain homeostasis. However, some more acid-tolerant or basic-tolerant
organisms can survive (and sometimes thrive) within different ranges of pH.
Calculate the mass and moles of the correct acid and corresponding conjugate base
solid (assume you have sodium salts of each base: NaH,PO4, Na,HPO4, and
Na PO,) which are needed to make 500 mL of a 0.5 M buffer solution (0.5 M total,
including the concentration of acid and base…
