APFIVE Henderson-Hasselbalch Equation and Buffers
What relationship does the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation establish regarding a buffer solution composed of a conjugate acid-base pair?
A
It indicates that buffer strength is solely dependent on the absolute concentrations of the acid and base components.
B
It proves that buffer capacity increases exponentially with the difference between pH and pKa.
C
It shows that the buffer’s pH is determined by the ratio of conjugate base to acid concentrations and the pKa of the acid.
D
It demonstrates that buffer strength is inversely proportional to the ionic strength of the solution.
