Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
Design a buffer system that can maintain a pH of 7.4, suitable for biological applications. Which weak acid and its conjugate base would you choose?
💡 Hint: Use the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation to support your argument.
Question 2
A buffer composed of acetic acid and sodium acetate has a capacity for 0.1 M of strong acid. Calculate how many moles of strong acid can be added before the pH starts to decline significantly.
💡 Hint: Consider which concentrations are involved and how they interact.
