Ph And Buffer Lab Report

The experiment in this laboratory is to study pH and buffers. The pH is defined as the –log[H+] and measures the molar concentration of hydrogen ions. In the study of life, life can only be stabilized through a buffer. A buffer is a solution that is able to resist pH change and maintain the stability of everyday life. A buffer requires a weak acid and its conjugated base. When a solution such as an acid or base presents itself into the buffer solution, the buffer will neutralize the amount of acids or base added to the solution. As a result, pH maintains stabilization and cells are able to function properly. In this study experiment, sodium chloride is the tested solution. Sodium chloride (NaCl) is commonly known to many as salt. NaCl is tested
