What pH value of 1M sodium crotonate solution supposed to be?

I need to prepare the $\pu{1M}$ solution of sodium crotonate, however, I don't have one in lab, but I do have sodium hydroxide and crotonic acid. Thus, I calculated that for $\pu{100 mL}$ of $\pu{1M}$ ...

Stability of n-Dodecyl-beta-D-maltoside in buffer solutions for assay experiments

I have a buffer system which contains multiple salts and in addition DTT and n-Dodecyl-beta-D-maltoside. I understand that DTT is hydrolysing quite fast and this component must be used always fresh ...

Can addition of a "neutral" salt like NaCl assist pH test strip measurement accuracy in low ionic strength/poorly buffered solutions?

After a web-search, it seems ISAs (Ionic Strength Adjusters) are offered commercially to assist pH electrode/probe measurements. Presumably meant to increase conductivity (without affecting pH ...

How to find pH for acetate buffer?

Calculate the pH of the solution that results when $\pu{40.0 mL}$ of $\pu{0.100 M}$ $\ce{CH3COOH}$ is mixed with $\pu{30.0 mL}$ of $\pu{0.200 M}$ $\ce{NaCH3COO}.$ $K_\mathrm{a}(\ce{CH3COOH}) = \pu{1....

Finding dissolved amount of base from pH and solubility product

Calculate the amount of $\ce{Mg(OH)2}$ which is solubilized in $\pu{1.25 L}$ of a buffered solution at $\mathrm{pH} = 9.5$. $(K_\mathrm{sp}(\ce{Mg(OH)2}) = \pu{5.61E-12})$. From $\mathrm{pH}$ I ...
