pH of buffer solution to be prepared = 10.6
pKa = 9.8
a) Calculation of ratio of [A-]/[HA]
According to Henderson Hasselbalch equation
pH = pKa + log10[A-]/[HA]
10.6 = 9.8 + log10[A-]/[HA]
0.8 = log10[A-]/[HA]
[A-]/[HA] = 6.31
b) As this is acidic buffer we have to have mixture of weak acid (HA) and its conjugate base (A- ) which is strong base hence we have to add strong base.
c) we know that [A-]/[HA] = 6.31/1 hence for 1 equivalent of HA we require 6.31 equivalent of A- hence it is clear that we need to add 6.31 equivalents of strong base.

If you are to prepare a 1.000 L of a 0.100 M buffer at pH 5.00 using the CH3COOH/ Na+CH3COO- buffer system (pKa 4.76a), answer the following questions: What is the molar ratio of the base to acid at pH 5.0? The concentration of the buffer (0.100 M in this example) refers to the sum of the weak acid and its conjugate base. Given this information, what is the concentration of the weak acid and its conjugate base at pH...
Solutions available 1.Acetic acid (CHCOH, K = 1.8 10) and sodium acetate (NaCHO). 2.Ammonium chloride (NHCl, K for NH = 5.6 10) and ammonia (NH). (The buffer will be prepared by choosing the appropriate acid-base pair, calculating the molar ratio of acid to base that will produce the assigned pH, and then mixing the calculated amounts of the two compounds with enough deionized water to make 200. mL of buffer solution. A solution with approximately the same pH as...

Buffer capacity refers to the amount of acid or base a buffer can absorb without a significant pH change. It is governed by the concentrations of the conjugate acid and bate components of the buffer. A 0.5 M buffer can "absorb" five time as much acid or lease as a 0.1 M buffer tor a given pH change. In this problem you begin with a buffer of known pH and concentration and calculate the new pH after a particular quantity...
Just as pH is the negative logarithm of [H3 O, pKa is the negative logarithm of Ka, The Henderson-Hasselbalch equation is used to calculate the pH of buffer solutions: base] [acid] pH — рКа + 1og Notice that the pH of a buffer has a value close to the pKa of the acid, differing only by the logarithm of the concentration ratio base/[acid]. The Henderson-Hasselbalch equation in terms of pOH and pKb is similar. acid base] РОН — рК, +...

3. To make a buffer solution, you can start with a solution of a known number of moles of the base form (A) and add a strong acid until you have neutralized the correct number of moles of the base to have the correct A HA ratio for the buffer you require.
