A diagram in a chemistry book shows a magnified view of a flask of air. What do you suppose is between the dots (which represent air molecules)? a. air d. oxygen b. dust e. nothing c. pollutants
CHEM 102: Acid/Base Equilibria Notes This is buffers. RIP Doc Note: WA= weak acid. WB= weak base. SA= strong acid. SB= strong base, CA= conjugate acid. CB= conjugate base H/H is the Henderson-Hasselbach 1. The Common Ion Effect a. The presence of a common ion suppresses the ionization of a weak acid or weak base. b. If we dissolve a salt with a common ion then attempt to dissociate (Dissolve in water) an acid/base with the same common ion, the equilibrium will shift to the reactants side. 2. Resisting the change in pH. a. Buffer solutions reduce the change of pH in a solution. b. Henderson-Hasselbach equation i. −log + ]= −log + log( −)
