Chapter 9, Problem 9.115E
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The pH of the given buffer is to be calculated.

Concept Introduction:

The buffer is a solution that resists any change in pH on addition of little amounts of H+ and OH. An acidic buffer is made up of a weak acid and its salt. A basic buffer is made up of a weak base and its salt. The pH of the acidic buffer is given as,

pH=pKa+log[B][HB]

Where,

[ B ] represents the concentration of B the ion.

[ HB ] represents the concentration of HB acid.

pKa represents the negative logarithm of the acid dissociation constant.

An important component of blood is the buffer combination of bicarbonate ion and carbonic acid. Consider blood with a pH of 7.42. (a) What is the ratio of [H2CO3] to [HCO3− ]?(b) What does the pH become if 14% of the bicarbonate ions are converted to carbonic acid? (c) What does the pH become if 26% of the carbonic acid molecules are converted to bicarbonate ions?
Start with a 450 ml sample of .45 M Hydrofluoric Acid (HF). What is the pH? If you buffer the solution by adding Sodium Fluoride (NaF) to a pH of 3.4, how many grams of NaF would you need to add? How many milliliters of 3M HCl would you have to add to lower the pH of the solution to 3.25?
Consider a buffer solution that consists of weak acid, HF (aq) and its conjugate base, F-. Write the reaction that occurs when a strong acid (H+) is added then write the reaction that occurs when a strong base (OH-) is added
