An inflection point in the titration curve:
occurs during a titration when one equivalent of base is added to a weak acid solution. | ||
is a point near which more base can be added without changing the pH significantly. | ||
is reached when the pH equals the pKa of the acid. | ||
occurs when the mixture contains an equal concentration of the weak acid and its conjugate base. | ||
can tell you the pKa of the weak acid used to make the buffer. |

QUESTION 4
The concentrations of acid and conjugate base in a buffer are determined experimentally to be 0.044 M and 0.059 M, respectively. If the total buffer concentration given on the bottle (the true value) is 0.102 M, then what is the percent error of the experimental value?

QUESTION 5
There are several calculations that need to be done in order to prepare a specific volume of buffer solution at a particular concentration and pH. There is a worked example in your lab manual on p. 119.
First, determine the correct A-/HA ratio: The pKa of acetic acid is 4.76, and the buffer solution needs to maintain a pH of 4.25. The concentration of acetate (CH3CO2-) should be X times that of the concentration of acetic acid (CH3CO2H). What is X?

QUESTION 6
There are several calculations that need to be done in order to prepare a specific volume of buffer solution at a particular concentration and pH. There is a worked example in your lab manual on p. 119.
Once the correct ratio of A- to HA is known, determine the actual concentration of A- needed to make a buffer at a particular concentration.
The ratio of acetate to acetic acid in a buffer is 0.176. That is, the concentration of acetate should be 0.176 times that of the concentration of acetic acid. What is the concentration of acetate (in M) needed to prepare a 0.416 M buffer using acetic acid and acetate?

QUESTION 7
There are several calculations that need to be done in order to prepare a specific volume of buffer solution at a particular concentration and pH. There is a worked example in your lab manual on p. 119.
What volume of acetate solution (in mL) is needed to make 250.0 mL of a buffer solution? The concentration of acetate in the buffer must be 0.0594 M, and the concentration of the acetate stock solution is 0.500 M.
