Buffer Capacity
The buffer capacity is a measure of the
“ strength ” of the buffer, its ability to
maintain the pH following addition of
strong acid or base.

Buffering Capacity
• How much H3O+ or OH- the buffer can absorb without
significantly changing its pH.
->
• Optimal buffering occurs when [HA] = [A;]־
• Ratio [A–] / [HA] ~ 1 strong resist to change when either
H3O+ or OH– is added.

Buffer Range
The buffer range is the pH range over which the buffer is effective.
