Buffers are of two types; acidic and basic. The ingredients necessary for the formation of an acidic buffer differs from that of a basic buffer.
The necessary ingredients are:
Acidic Buffer : A weak acid and its salt with a strong base.
Basic Buffer : A weak base and its salt with a strong acid.

When a small amount of acid is added to a buffer; its pH changes by a very small amount or does not change at all.
17.
When a small amount of base is added to a buffer; its pH changes by a very small amount or does not change at all.

The system 2 ; i.e. ; 0.1 M HC2H3O2 and 0.1 M NaCl is not an effective buffer. This can be seen from the drastic pH changes that take place on adding acid and base to it.
This system has the weak acid HC2H3O2 but does not have its corresponding salt with a strong base ; i.e. ; NaC2H3O2. Rather it has NaCl which is a neutral salt and hence can not form buffer.

The most important unanswered question about buffers is what is the pH range in which a solution of acid and it's salt act as a buffer. Or do they behave as buffers in the entire range of pH.

DATE: NAME: NAME: SECTION/GROUP: NAME: NAME LAB 11: PRE-LAB HOW DOES THE BUFFER CAPACITY DEPEND ON THE COMPOSITION OF A BUFFER MIXTURE?, 1. Use 10-mL Mohr pipettes to prepare the solutions described in the Data Table below and measure their initial pH using a pH electrode. Make sure the electrode bulb is fully immersed before measuring. Add 1.0 mL of 0.10 M NaOH to each solution and measure the pH again. Calculate the pH change caused by the addition of...
Buffers are solutions designed to resist changes in pH from the addition of small amounts of acids or bases. Buffers are comprised of a solution of a weak acid with its conjugate base. When an outside base is added to the buffer, the weak acid in the buffer neutralizes the hydroxide ion of the base, thus retarding its ability to raise the solution's pH. When an outside acid is added to the buffer, the conjugate base of the buffer neutralizes...
(6 points) 95. A student is given three different acetic acid/acetate (HC2H302/C2H302) buffers: Buffer 1: HC2H302/C2H302* has a ratio of (1:1) Buffer 2: HC2H202/C2H302" has a ratio of ( 1:10) Buffer 3: HC2H302/C2H302 has a ratio of 1:100) Buffer 4: HC2H302/C2H302has a ratio of ( 1:1000) In two experiments, a student is asked to measure the pH of these Buffers (1 through 4) (20.0 mL each) followed by these experiments. Experiment I: The student adds 2 drops of 1M HCl...

Lab 5 Buffers 1. Dissolved ions in salt solutions can act as acids or bases and react with water to produce hydronium ions or hydroxide ions that contribute to the pH of the salt solution. Since strong acids and strong bases completely ionize in solution, the reverse reaction essentially does not occur, meaning that the resulting conjugate base of a strong acid or conjugate acid of a strong base do NOT act as acids or bases. Ions that are conjugate...
