Which buffer (A or B) has a larger buffering capacity? Explain why.

For Buffers A and B, why is there a lower buffering capacity for the added acid than the added base?

How do the buffering capacities of the buffers compare to that of water? Explain why.

Imagine you also prepared 100.0 mL of Buffer C, in which you mixed 1.35 g of sodium acetate (NaC2H3O2-3H2O) with 10.00 mL of 1.0 M acetic acid.

a. What would be the initial pH of Buffer C?

b. If you add 5.0 mL of 0.50 M HCl solution to 20.0 mL each of Buffer B and Buffer C, which buffer's pH would change less? Explain.?
