How much water given 1M HCl and 1M Tris (pKa = 8.1) would you need to combine to make 100mL of a Tris-HCl buffer at a pH of 7.2?
The molar ratio of the buffer components is calculated:
n Salt / n Acid = 10 ^ (pH - pKa) = 10 ^ (7.2 - 8.1) = 0.125
It has:
i) n Salt - 0.125 * n Acid = 0
ii) n Salt + n Acid = 0.1 M * 0.1 L = 0.01 mol
System of equations is applied and you have:
n Salt = 0.0011 mol
n Acid = 0.0089 mol
The volume of Tris, HCl and water required to prepare the buffer is calculated:
V Tris = n Salt * 1000 / M = 0.0011 * 1000/1 M = 1.1 mL
V HCl = 0.0089 * 1000/1 = 8.9 mL
V H2O = 100 - 1.1 - 8.9 = 90 mL
If you liked the answer, please rate it positively, you would help me a lot, thanks.

Which of the following compounds would make the best buffer at pH 7.5? Acetic acid, pKa= 4.76 N-tris(hydroxymethyl) methylglycine (Tricine), pKa = 8.15 N-2-hydroxyethylpiperazine-N’-ethansulfonic acid, pKa2= 7.6 Glycine, pKa2= 9.9 Tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane (Tris), pKa = 8.3 I believe 3 is the correct answer and therefore I am trying to answer the below question with this information. Using the answer that you selected from question 1 above: a. Explain how you would make the buffer starting with 1M HA and 1M A-...
You are given sodium acetate, 1M HCl, NaHCO3, and Na2CO3. Determine which of these four would you need and then show calculations to make buffer pH=4.7 by the following: Strong Acid & Weak Base (mol/L)(g/mol)(L) = Weak Base Strong Acid: C1V1=C2V2 Assume making 100mL of a 0.1M buffer.
You are asked to make one litre of 0.2M Tris-CI buffer pH 8.8, using Tris base and IM hydrochloric acid. a) given the MW of Tris is 121.1, how much Tris would you weigh out to make one litre of b) what is the ratio of [Tris base] to [Tris acid] in the final buffer solution? (pKa of Tris is c) what is the total concentration of Tris (i.e. Tris base form+Tris acid form) in the final 0.2M Tris-Cl buffer?...
Tris buffers are commonly used in biochemistry labs because they buffer within the physiological range of 7.1 to 9.1 due to a pKa of 8.1. To demonstrate the buffering capacity of Tris buffer, your biochemistry lab teaching assistant has given you one liter of a 0.1 M Tris buffer at pH 7.4. Add 2 mL of 1M HCl to this buffer and calculate what the new pH will be.
Calculate how much of each solution (and water!) you would need to make 100 mLs of a 0.1 M Tris/0.05M EDTA solution from 1M Tris and 1 M EDTA stock solutions?
How many mL of 1M NaOH do you need to add to 300 mL of 1 M acetic acid to make a buffer with a pH of 5.46? Water will be added to bring the total volume of the buffer to 1 L. The pKa of acetic acid is 4.76.
Given stocks of 1 M Lactic Acid (pKa 3.86) at pH 3.5, 2 M naOH, 2 M HCl and water: how would you prepare 4 liters of 0.05 M Lactic Acid at pH 3.25? Give 2 M Tris, pH 7.1 (pKa 8.0), 5 M NaOH, 5 M HCl, and water: how would you prepare 2 L of 0.2 M Tris, pH 7.4?
