Buffers and Hendersen-Hasselbalch

[bigtopbollocks]

Nice buffers Anderson!

[bigtopbollocks]

Have to remember the name! I keep calling it the Anderson and Hasselhoff!

thanks for the conceptual idea of hendersen hasselbalch but can you teach us ICE tables???

[jsmcrawler]

I have done HH a dozen times never even though it was derrived from the original equation

tks

[RISEofTIBET]

as always thank you kindly for your great instructions. i was wondering, are you left handed? thanx

[FarrahGreye]

ur awesome!!!!!!!!!

I love you Sal

Did you distribute wrong?

for calculating the hendersen-hasselbalch eq.-

p(K * [HA]/[A-]) = pK k * [HA]/[A-] NOT pK - log [HA]/[A]

you can only distribute if the things inside parenthesis are added or subtracted:

6(3+2) = 6*3 + 6*2 = 18 + 12 = 30 and 6(3+2) = 6 * 5 = 30 so it checks out

you did 6(3*2) = 6*3 + 6*2 = 30 but 6*6 = 36. Not Equal!!

so i am confused. i think i explained why well enough, would someone clarify for me?

@savvy22dew Nearest I can tell, you have mistake the "p" in this equation as a regular variable. It is actually the short hand for -log(). Thus p(Ka) = -log(Ka) and p(HA/A) = - log(HA/A). Log functions have a few unique properties, one of which is that log(X*Y) = Log(X) + Log(Y), which explains why

p(K * [HA]/[A-]) = pK - log [HA]/[A].

Sal has a proof of this concept on his website in the algebra section if you are interested in why this is so. Hoped that helped!

Did it get cut off at the end...?

[BF1]

@rinwhr He makes a comment in a previous video that he makes some wrong assumptions in the last 3-4 min. So he made this video that just cut the last few minutes off.

I LOVE YOU!!! you are a great teacher, thank you thank you thankkk youu!

Is this kinna old school paint or what?

[HutchaZ]

Nooooooooooooooo~~ It's too late.

I took the exam on this on the previous Monday...And I've done it wrong T_T.

But anyway, Thanks Sal

For the dissociation equation of the conjugate base of the weak acid(A‾), wouldn't it be more appropriate to write it like this: A‾(aq)+H2O(l)↔AH(aq)+OH‾(aq) in order to balance the equation?

[norwayte]

Remake? No, it's the same video.

[Transpacity]

@norwayte He cut off the end since he said that volume doesn't matter.

[zackboomer]

hmm ive seen this before. still good tho

[xpstkxps]

Thank You!

[Taowhr]

Re-making your video?

[Waranle]

Thank you Sal :)

[C00LBananas]

Thanks for the great videos
