Henderson-Hasselbalch equation and degree of dissociation
Is it possible to evaluate the degree of dissociation in unbuffered solutions, through the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation?
For example: place acetic acid in a sodium hydroxide solution. After the ...

Measuring [A-]/[HA-] with Buffer and Indicator
I'm very confused on how to calculate the [A-]/[HA] value, given the fact that my dilution series uses buffers at various pH values with the same indicator (supplied at the same concentration to each ...

Is the Henderson–Hasselbalch equation volume independent?
Looking at this equation $\mathrm{pH} = \mathrm{p}K_\text{a} +\log\frac{[\ce{CB}]}{[\ce{A}]}$ makes me think that it is concentration independent.
What I mean is, when we look at $\frac{[\ce{CB}]}{[\...

How to calculate the pH of a buffered solution with Henderson Hasselbalch?
Lets say you have a buffered solution containing $0.50~\mathrm{M}$ acetic acid ($K_a = 1.8 \cdot 10^{-5}$) and $0.50~\mathrm{M}$ sodium acetate, and you want to calculate the $\mathrm{p}\ce{H}$ of ...
