A buffer system used to maintain solution pH values around 5 is prepared by adding similar concentrations of CH3CO2H and NaCH3CO2 to water.
(a) Write a balanced equation showing the acid and conjugate base in equilibrium. Omit spectator ions.
(b) Describe how this buffer system prevents large pH changes when a base is added.
