Buffer Solutions

Accepted Answer

Buffer solutions are mixtures that resist changes in pH upon addition of small amounts of acid or base. They typically consist of a weak acid and its conjugate base, or a weak base and its conjugate acid. The key to their effectiveness lies in the equilibrium between the acid/base and its conjugate, which allows them to neutralize added H+ or OH- ions, maintaining a relatively stable pH.
