I. Suggestion of Use (1) This is a dry lab. (2) Instructors may assign different problems for different students in the same group to work on in the lab. (3) If preferred, instructors may randomize those numbers in the given problems and then assign to students. | |||||||
| |||||||
II. Objectives (1) Identify necessary components for the constitution of a buffer; (2) Calculate buffer pH using HendersonHasselbalch equation; (3) Calculate buffer pH after the addition of strong acid/base. | |||||||
| |||||||
III. Principles, Procedures, and Practices | |||||||
Buffers are widely used in chemical reaction where solution pH is required to be constant. With the addition of limited amount of acid/base, buffer solution pH does not change significantly.
III.1 Constitution of a buffer To constitute a buffer, a pair of conjugate weak acid and weak base is required. The conjugate weak acid and the conjugate weak base has a difference of only one H+. For example, HC2H3O (acetic acid) and C2H3O- (acetate) will be t constitute a buffer. | |||||||
Your instructor will select a problem for you to work on. (Different problems may be assigned to different students in the same group.) | |||||||
Question: Identify which of the following combination will be able to constitute a buffer. | |||||||
Problem 1 | Problem 2 | Problem 3 | |||||
HCN (aq) + HSCN (aq) | yes; no. | HNO3 (aq) + NO3- (aq) | yes; no. | HClO3 (aq) + ClO3- (aq) | yes; no. | ||

III.2 Buffer solution pH calculation For buffer solution pH-related calculation, HendersonHasselbalch equation is often used. pH=pKa+log[base]ini[acid]ini However, one must always keep in mind that HendersonHasselbalch equation is good for use only when, 0.1<[base]ini[acid]ini<10
Example: What is the pH of a buffer solution composed of 0.12 M NaNO2 and 0.15 M HNO2 at 25C? It is known Ka for HNO2 is 4.510-4 at 25C. Solution: HNO2 is a weak acid. The NO2- derived from NaNO2 is a weak base. HNO2 and NO2- are a conjugate pair. [base]ini=[NO2-]ini=0.12M; [acid]ini=[HNO2]ini=0.15M pH=pKa+log[base]ini[acid]ini=-log4.510-4+log0.120.15 =3.35+log0.80 = 3.35+(-0.10)=3.25 Attention: Sometimes, mass may be given instead of mole or molarity. In that case, you have to calculate molarity first. | |||||||

III.3 Buffer solution Preparation for a Required pH Buffer preparation has two common ways: (1) direct mixing conjugate acid and base; and (2) partial neutralization. | |||||||
Way 1 Direct mixing conjugate acid and base | Way 2- Partial neutralization | ||||||
Example: It is known nitrous acid (HNO2) pKa = 3.35. If you intend to use HNO2 and NaNO2 to prepare a buffer solution at pH = 4.00, what is molar ration of NaNO2 and HNO2 should be? To a solution containing 15.0 g HNO2, what mass of NaNO2 you need to add? Solution: pH=pKa+log[base]ini[acid]ini log[base]ini[acid]ini=pH-pKa=4.00-3.35=0.65 Hence, [base]ini[acid]ini=100.65=4.7 [NaNO2]ini[HNO2]ini=4.7

If you have 200 ml 0.100 M HNO2 solution, what volume of 0.500 M NaOH you need to add in order to have a buffer with pH at 3.00? Solution: HNO2aq+NaOHaqNaNO2aq+H2O(l) With partial neutralization, the solution will include HNO2 and NO2-, which can constitute a buffer. pH=pKa+log[base]ini[acid]ini log[base]ini[acid]ini=pH-pKa=3.00-3.35=-0.35 Hence, [base]ini[acid]ini=10-0.35=0.45 [NaNO2]ini[HNO2]ini=mol of NaNO2mole of HNO2=4.7 Assuming x ml of 0.100 M NaOH is required to add.

Summary Adding 1.00 ml 0.100 M HCl into 100ml water results a pH change from 7.00 to 3.00. (DpH = -4.00) Adding 1.00 ml 0.100 M NaOH into 100ml water results a pH change from 7.00 to 11.00. (DpH = +4.00) Adding 1.00 ml 0.100 M HCl into 100ml buffer results a pH change from 3.35 to 3.34. (DpH = -0.01) Adding 1.00 ml 0.100 M NaOH into 100ml water results a pH change from 3.35 to 3.36. (DpH = +0.01) Attention: If too much acid/base is added resulting in [base]ini/[acid]ini <0.1 or >10, one cant use HendersonHasselbalch equation to calculate buffer pH any more. Instead, common ion effect with I.C.E. table should be used for pH calculation. | |||||||
