    This document discusses pH buffer solutions and the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation. It explains that a buffer solution resists changes to its pH through the dynamic equilibrium between the acidic and conjugate base forms of the buffer. The key equation presented is the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation, which relates the pH of a buffer solution to the pKa of the acid and the concentration of the conjugate base over the concentration of the acid form. Examples are also provided on calculating the pH of buffer solutions.
