Buffer Question
« on: October 23, 2008, 03:57:24 PM »
Well..it's a question about making buffers
1. H3PO4
2. NaHCO3
what salts can these two chemicals mix with to produce buffer solution?

since your question asking about salt to be added, so your 2 solutions are acting as weak acid/base, so its conjugate base/acid must be contained in the salt.
