    This is the clearest explanation of buffers I’ve found so far and I’ve looked everywhere!

    People remember this is just an acidic buffer
    there are basic buffers asw that operate same priniciples but some differences exist
    great vid very clear and concise info

  • @avionyellow1712
    @avionyellow1712 4 місяці тому

    Thanks, it makes sense now WHY there is a large reservoir of the acid and the base - having excess of the 2 components allows for change in pH to be buffered regardless of whether it is acid or the alkali that was added

    Hello! thank you so much for this video, it's interesting, didactic and connected to reality! I have a question, I've seen that after preparing a solution some people adjust and measure its (final desired) pH before adding water. Why is that? Even if it is deionized water, wouldn't it change the pH to closer to 7? Does it depend on the quantity? I get that deionized water doesn't add ions to the solution, but I don't get how the volume of the solution works here... Is there a way of calculating how much water you can add without altering the pH? Thank you!

  • @hisyamhasbi8257
    @hisyamhasbi8257 3 роки тому +2

    When we add OH to the buffer, it will make more A- right?
    So in my understanding, the equilibrium will shift to the left and make the solution more basic... While if we add H+ to the solution, the equilibrium will also shift to the left. So no matter what we add, we'll make more weak acid? Is that correct?

  • @bjornbuckley

    4:10 But if the weak acid yields large amounts of its conjugate base, then why does that conjugate base not drastically affect the pH of the solution?

    • @Overthought7
      @Overthought7 2 роки тому

      Great question! I think it's because the equilibrium of the weak acid is controlled by the proton concentration. But that's just a guess, I'm also trying to figure this out!

    Why does OH- react with HA in the neutralization reaction and does not react with H3O+ (actually a stronger acid)? Plus, how can the pH still change a little bit if the reaction does not let the concentration of OH- or H+ to vary?

    It gets always talked about the addition of a strong acid or strong base... my question would be how to calculate the ph with the addition of a weak acid? Lets say the addition of acetic acid to a phosphate buffer

  • @hudsonhoneybone5207

    What is the purpose of salt in a buffer solution? Won't the acid dissociate and form its conjugate base itself?

    HA = H+ and A- , here a- is conjugate base
    HA doesn't completely dissociate as it's a weak acid .

  • @adityaadit2004

    Wait if you added H+ why don't you just add weak base buffer to the unbuffered solution instead of just using HA and salt?

  • @ThomasChesterson
    @ThomasChesterson 2 роки тому

    So basically NaA is only there to provide A- for H+ added in

    • @ThomasChesterson
      @ThomasChesterson 2 роки тому

      and that H+ forms bond with A- creating weak acid that doesn't increase pH very much
