In order to understand the concepts of pH and buffers, gain experience in using the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation, and to make the buffers you will be using this semester, you will make: 50.0 mL of 10X P, Buffer: 50.0 ml of 25X TE Buffer: 200 mM phosphate at pH 5.6 250 mM Tris with 25 mM EDTA at pH 7.5 The phosphate buffer will be prepared using a solid monobasic phosphate salt, and a solid dibasic phosphate salt. The same pK, works for either the Na* or K* salts. These salts are frequently hydrates, so the specific molar mass is provided.

Question

Calculate how to make a phosphate buffer. Calculate the concentrations of each species involved and then calculate the mass and/or volumes of the components required to prepare the buffer.

The Phosphate buffer will be in grams of each component.

Below is the necessary information. Please and thank you!

In order to understand the concepts of pH and buffers, gain experience in using
the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation, and to make the buffers you will be using this
semester, you will make:
50.0 mL of 10X P, Buffer:
50.0 ml of 25X TE Buffer:
200 mM phosphate at pH 5.6
250 mM Tris with 25 mM EDTA at pH 7.5
The phosphate buffer will be prepared using a solid monobasic phosphate salt,
and a solid dibasic phosphate salt. The same pK, works for either the Na* or K* salts.
These salts are frequently hydrates, so the specific molar mass is provided.
