pH and degree of dissociation of drugs

I have a doubt, i hope not so stupid. Suppose we consider a buffer solution of acetic acid/acetate at pH = pKa = 4.76 and we add aspirin (pKa = 3.5): given that the pH of the solution is higher than ...

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 ...

How to estimate the pH of multi-component buffer (phosphate buffer in equilibrium with CO2 rich atmosphere)?

I wonder how the pH of buffer solution can be estimated if buffer consists of several systems in equilibrium to the gas phase. For example, (based on growth medium for one of the bacteria) buffer ...

Calculating the pH of a 'buffer' solution?

Question: Determine the $\mathrm{pH}$ of the solution resulting when $\pu{100 cm^3}$ of $\pu{0.50 mol dm-3}$ $\ce{CH2ClCOOH}$ is mixed with $\pu{200 cm^3}$ of $\pu{0.10 mol dm-3}$ $\ce{NaOH}$. The ...

How many moles NH4Cl must be added to NH3 to create buffer with pH=9?

How many moles of $\ce{NH4Cl}$ must be added to $\pu{2.0 L}$ of $\pu{0.10 M}$ $\ce{NH3}$ to form a buffer with $\mathrm{pH}=9$? Assume the addition does not change the volume of the solution ...
