Buffers - mixtures of conjugate acid and conjugate base at ±1 pH unit from pH = pKa. Resistant to changes in pH in response to small additions of H+ or OH-. ... Polyprotic acids - dissociation of each H+ can be treated separately if the pKa values are different
Answer:
The range of [H⁺] is from 2.51 x 10⁻⁶ M to 6.31 x 10⁻⁶ M,
Explanation:
To answer this problem we need to keep in mind the <u>definition of pH</u>:
So now we <u>calculate [H⁺] using a pH value of 5.2 and of 5.6</u>:
-5.2 = log [H⁺]
= [H⁺]
6.31 x 10⁻⁶ M = [H⁺]
-5.6 = log [H⁺]
= [H⁺]
2.51 x 10⁻⁶ M = [H⁺]
