Buffer Solution Challenge

This document discusses buffer capacity and the preparation of an isotonic buffered preserved solution. It provides the calculation to determine the capacity of a buffer containing 0.20 mole of acetic acid and sodium acetate per liter when 0.01 M NaOH is added. It also gives the recipe and instructions to make a 100 mL Sorensen phosphate buffered isotonic solution, including adding 0.7% chlorobutanol as a preservative and calculating the amount needed based on its volume. A table with the mixtures of monobasic and dibasic sodium phosphate solutions and resulting pH and NaCl amounts is included.

Buffer Capacity and Preparation of Isotonic Buffered Preserved

Solution

¾ Solve this problem

At a hydrogen ion concentration of 1.75 * 10-5 (pH = 4.76), what is the capacity of
buffer containing 0.20 mole of each of acetic acid and sodium acetate per liter of
solution if 0.01 M NaoH is added?

¾ Preparation of isotonic buffered preserved solution:

a. Prepare a 100 ml of Sorensen Phosphate buffered isotonic solutions, using


table#1.
Monobasic sodium phosphate solution = 8.00 g / 1000 ml
Dibasic sodium phosphate solution = 9.47 g / 1000 ml.

b. Add Chlorobutanol 0.7% as a preservative. Do the required calculation before


its addition. (V-value of 0.3 g of Chlorobutanol is 8 ml)
N.B. calculate the required amount of the chemicals in step (a) and (b).

Monobasic Dibasic S.P.S. Resulting NaCl to render


Sodium Phosphate “mL” buffer solution isotonic “g”
Solution “mL” pH “mL”
