This problem set covers key concepts in aqueous equilibria, focusing on pH calculations and buffer preparation. It includes practical scenarios such as mixing weak acids and bases, calculating hydrogen ion concentrations in different solutions, and determining the ratio of components required to create a specific pH buffer. Students will calculate pH changes upon the addition of strong acids to weak base solutions, as well as apply the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation and Kb values for various substances.
