    It's worthy to note that for the buffer to actual "work," you need significant amounts of the weak acid/base and its conjugate. So if you're adding a large amount of HCl to a buffer with small amounts of the buffering components (ie a weak base/acid with it's conj salt), the pH will change significantly.

    Water will add H+ and OH- ions, which will use up part of the buffering capacity. This means that when an acid or base is added, there is less capability for the buffer to act.

    @7:30, sal mentions that the proton from HCl would react with OH- and neutralizes the reaction. And then, the reaction shifts to the right to make up for lost Hydroxide (OH-) ions. I get that. But isn't there a chance that same proton can also react with the A- too instead of OH-? And lets say, it did react with the A-, then according to Le chatelier's principle, wouldn't the reaction shift to the right, creating more OH- and thus increasing the pH?

    Hi everyone! I have been looking around the internet for articles discussing how much buffer to add into a solution but all I've found are calculations on buffer preparation. I am preparing an antibiotic solution (synthetic antibiotic-contaminated wastewater) which will be treated afterwards at constant pH. I will be adding NaOH and H2SO4 for the initial pH adjustments, then phosphate buffers to maintain the set pH. My problem is, I have no idea how much of the NaOH, H2SO4, and buffer will I add to my solution. Could you please help me with this? I'd really, really appreciate it. Thank you very much!

    OK as useful as that was for understanding, some of the words used wouldn't be awarded marks , especially with my exam board. They want you to say a buffer is a solution that minimizes or resists changes in pH. The mark scheme says you need a series of equations which you demonstrated well. And also to say what happens when you add an acid ( [H+] increases reacts with negatively charged base from acid dissociation. Etc. After doing a few questions its more clear what they are after.

    Love your videos, I am learning much in my retirement years. But simply dropping the units m/L from Ka at time 10:35 bothered me and since I don't believe log of a dimensional quantity is mathematically defined, I attempted to see if I could derive the H-H equation without violating mathematics or at least within some more explicit definitions. Here is the math: for compactness of notation: - anything inside [ ] is in m/L (moles/liter). - if a variable or constant is not inside [ ] then it is dimensionless, unless otherwise explicitly noted. - I drop the ionic charges. Your initial equation for equilibrium constant at 10:35 should have been written [Ka] * [HA]/[A] = [H] Note units on left and right side of my equation match, where yours do not at time 10:35 Now to get rid of the dimensions m/L from Ka so that we can take the log of it: multiply both sides by L/m Ka * [HA]/[A] = H take the -log of both sides: pKa - log([HA]/[A]) = -log H To get pH as defined within the Chem community we need to get back the dimensions for H by multiplying by m/L. This is equivalent to adding the log of m/L, then of course doing it on both sides of the eq. pKa - log([HA]/[A]) + log(m/L) = -log(H) + log(m/L) = -log[H] ...... -log[H]=pH by definition only. Then since pH is dimensionless and pH = -log(H * 1m/L) = -log(H)+log(1m/L), by definition log(1m/L) must=0 so... pKa - log([HA]/[A]) = pH or pKa + log( [A]/[HA] ) = pH since [HA]/[A] is dimensionless we get the H-H equation balanced with all terms dimensionless So only by defining log(m/L)=0 the H-H equation can be derived without erroneous math.... at least to my satisfaction.

    The mathematical reason your "amazing" conclusion at the end of the video was wrong is that a log of a dimensional quantity is undefined. So the log(moles/moles) is undefined and therefore you can not interpret that equation to say that the ph is independent of volume and only dependent on the ratio of moles of constituents. To be defined you need to remove the dimensions, i.e. divide m/L by m/L. This leaves no opportunity for the faulty interpretation. Or if one followed my math above one would see this equation.. pKa + log( [A]/[HA] ) = pH ... is only correct if Log(m/L) = 0, and this can only be correct if m/L is dimensionless. After consideration one can see it is in fact dimensionless when we realize that Liters are just acting as a scale factor for moles. That is to say, for example, we could write the very first equation with the ratio of atoms of H to atoms of H2O, which give a dimensionless ratio instead of the dimension of moles to liters. Following that approach throughout there would have been no opportunity in the last equation to remove the dimension of volume.

    Comment on the edit at the end: wrong again. Initially, the math was correct (getting rid of the volume), but its interpretation was wrong... and the whole math thing was useless/needless anyway. The edit (the comments) were wrong.... when trying to discredit the 'correct' math with the example of diluting the solution with H2O - of course the pH will change due to Chatelier's principle. Your initial equation relating pH, pKa, and number of moles, is correct and APPLIES only at a particular instant/concentrations.
