Match the following terms with their definitions:
Buffer = An aqueous solution of a weak acid and its conjugated salt or a weak base with its conjugated salt pH = A measure of the acidity or basicity of a solution Conjugate salt = The species formed when a weak acid or base donates or accepts a proton Acid-base balance = The maintenance of a constant pH in biological and chemical systems
Match the following statements with the correct description:
Match the following statements with the correct description:
Buffers in solutions = Prevent large changes in pH when small amounts of strong acid or base are added Biological and chemical reactions = Require a constant pH for optimal progression Usefulness of buffers = Maintain the pH at a constant value in systems Change in pH for buffers = Occurs but is not as significant as in non-buffered solutions
