Description
Buffers are a common term in the english language, but what do they mean in Chemistry (0:39)? Episode 38 describes the chemical set up of buffers (1:31) and takes a closer look at how the buffer works on a particle level (2:03). To calculate the pH of a buffer the episode describes the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation (3:04). Using the theme of equal concentration of conjugate acid/base pair, two approaches to prepare a buffer solution are described (5:39) and the concept of buffer capacity is being discussed (6:36).Question: How does a smaller concentration of conjugate base than weak acid affect the pH of a buffer?Thank you for listening to The APsolute RecAP: Chemistry Edition!(AP is a registered trademark of the College Board and is not affiliated with The APsolute RecAP.
