So buffer should be acid+conjugate base or base + conjugate acid.
Bronsted Acid donate proton while base receive proton.
HCl is suppose to be the acid because it has H+ to be donated.
If no water product, could it be
(CH2OH)3CNH2 + HCl <> (CH2OH)3CCl + NH3?
but still it doesn't become TRIS...
Homework Statement
To prepare 1M phosphate buffer pH7.8. pKa=7.21. How much molar of Na2HPO4 and NaH2PO4 to be added
I have no confidence in my answer... Can anyone pls have a check?Homework Equations
pH=pKa+lg (base/conjugate acid)The Attempt at a Solution
7.8=7.21 +lg (a/b)
0.59=lg (a/b)...
Homework Statement
I am trying to prepare a 1L Tris-HCl buffer 1M pH7. The pKa value is 8.06. The question is, how many molar of HCl should be added to produce this buffer?
Homework Equations
pH = pKa + log [base/acid]
The Attempt at a Solution
7=8.06 + lg (a/b)
-1.06=lg (a/b)...
