◦ Buffers have a pH = 7.
◦ Buffers consist of a strong acid and its conjugate base.
◦ Buffers resist change in pH upon addition of small amounts of strong acid or strong base.

Question 2

What is the pH of a buffered system made by dissolving 17.42 g of KH2PO4 and 20.41 g of K2HPO4 in water to give a volume of 200.0 mL? The Ka2 for dihydrogen phosphate is 6.2 × 10-8 and the equilibrium reaction of interest is

H2PO4-(aq) + H2O(l) ⇌ H3O+(aq) + HPO4-(aq).
